(FOSROC)

S.No. Property Details

1 Colour & form Brown liquid

2 Based on Based on sulphonated naphthalene

polymers

3 Complies to

codes IS: 9103 – 1999 & BS: 5075 part 3

4 Water reduction Water reduction upto 25% without loss of

workability

5 Specific gravity 1.220 to 1.225 at 300C

6 Chloride content NIL

7 Air entrainment Approximately 1% additional air is

entrained

8 Compatibility Compatible with all types of cements

expect high alumina cement

9 Workability Can be used to produce flowing concrete

that requires no compaction

10 Cohesion

Cohesion is improved due to dispersion

of cement particles thus minimizing

segregation.

11 Dosage 0.50 to 2 liters per 100 Kg of cement

12 Dispensing

SP 430 + water mixture should be added

in the last phase after prewetting the mix

80% of the total water required
