SikaPlast®-701

Mid-range Water Reducing Concrete Admixture

SikaPlast® -701 is a newly developed admixture for concrete with mid-range reducing effect. It is concentrated solution based on Synthetic Polymer and utilizing polycarboxylate technology.

  • Water reduction up to 11% against control mix
  • Can be used as an economical low dosage admixture for conventional concrete
  • Improved utilization of cement
  • Improved watertightness and durability
  • Equal strengths to control mix with less cement
  • Better improvement for final strength
  • Compensates for slow early strength gain achieved by cement replacements (PFA,GGBFS)
  • Increased workability and finishability
  • Longer slump retention
