Fosroc Conplast NC is a chloride-free accelerating admixture manufactured by Fosroc Chemicals India Private Limited and marketed and supplied in India by their authorized distributor, Space Arc Engineering, for all Fosroc range of products. Here are the uses and advantages of Fosroc Conplast NC

Uses and Advantages of Fosroc Conplast NC:
Uses:

• Fosroc Conplast NC is ideal for accelerating the early stages of cement hydration, allowing for more rapid stiffening and enabling strength gain to begin at an earlier stage.
• This product is especially useful for offsetting the delaying effect of low temperatures on setting and strength gain.
• Fosroc Conplast NC is suitable for use in precast concrete, concrete placed in cold weather, concrete for repairs, and mortars for brickwork.
• It is also a safe option for use in reinforced concrete due to its chloride-free nature.

Advantages:

• Fosroc Conplast NC provides exceptional early strength, giving added protection against early age frost attack.
• This product has a plasticising action that increases workability and/or increased strengths.
• The early setting property of Fosroc Conplast NC further improves frost resistance.
• Suitable for bricklaying mortar mixes and is particularly effective in concrete at low temperatures.
• Fosroc Conplast NC is guaranteed to be completely free of all forms of chloride, making it a safe option for use in prestressed and reinforced concrete.

Manufactured by Fosroc Chemicals India Private Limited, the Fosroc Conplast NC chloride-free accelerating admixture is marketed and supplied in India by their authorized distributor, Space Arc Engineering, for all of the Fosroc range of products.
Dosage and Application Instructions:

Dosage:

• The recommended dosage range for standard concrete and mortar mixes with all grades of Portland cement is 2.0 to 3.0 liters per 100 kg cement.
• An overdose of double the recommended amount of Fosroc Conplast NC will result in a slight increase in initial acceleration, but will not materially alter the ultimate strength or characteristics of the cured concrete or mortar.

Application Instructions:

• Fosroc Conplast NC should be stirred before use and the correct quantity should be measured using a recommended dispenser.
• This product should be added directly into the mixer, ideally at the same time as the mixing water.
• Curing membrane, Concure WB, or alternative methods such as polythene, water spray, or wet hessian should be used for curing.
• In the event of spillages, Fosroc Conplast NC can be removed with water.

Storage and Precautions:

• Fosroc Conplast NC has a minimum shelf life of 12 months in unopened containers under normal warehouse conditions.
• It is important to note that Fosroc Conplast NC is toxic, and precautions should be taken to avoid prolonged contact with skin or ingestion.
• In case of ingestion, seek immediate medical attention and give an emetic of common salt in water.
• Any splashes on the skin should be washed well with water, and the use of rubber gloves and safety glasses is recommended.
• Fosroc Conplast NC is non-flammable but should be stored away from combustible materials.

In conclusion, Fosroc Conplast NC is a highly effective chloride-free accelerating admixture that provides exceptional early strength, increased workability, and improved frost resistance. It is a safe option for use in reinforced concrete and is suitable for a range of applications, including precast concrete, concrete for repairs, and mortars for brickwork.
