Fosroc Admixture Conplast P211: Enhancing the Performance of Concrete
Details on the Fosroc Conplast P211: Uses, Benefits, and Product
A brown solution based on chosen sugar-reduced lignosulphonates, Fosroc Conplast P211 is a chloride-free water-reducing admixture that dissolves instantaneously in water. It is an efficient method for enhancing the effectiveness of the water content of a concrete mix. It is produced by Fosroc Chemicals India Private Limited and marketed and distributed in India by its authorised distributor, Space Arc Engineering.

Technical support:
For on-site assistance and guidance with admixture selection, assessment trials, and dispensing equipment, Fosroc offers a technical consulting service. Admixtures and other items for use with fresh and hardened concrete can be given technical data and instructions.
Dosage:
Trials utilising the materials and circumstances that would be encountered in usage should always be used to identify the best dosage of Conplast P211 to fulfil specific requirements. Use a dosage within the standard range of 0.20 to 0.50 liters/100kg of cementitious material, including PFA, GGBFS, and microsilica, as a starting point for such studies.
Compatibility:
Conplast P211 can be used in the same concrete mix as other Fosroc admixtures without conflict. Each additive must be put to the concrete separately; they cannot be combined before being added. To avoid impacts like unintended retardation, the performance of concrete containing multiple admixtures should be evaluated using the trial mix method suggested in this data sheet.

A brown solution based on chosen sugar-reduced lignosulphonates, Fosroc Conplast P211 is a chloride-free water-reducing admixture that dissolves instantaneously in water. It is an efficient method for enhancing the effectiveness of the water content of a concrete mix. It is produced by Fosroc Chemicals India Private Limited and marketed and distributed in India by its authorised distributor, Space Arc Engineering.
Uses:
- increases the efficacy of a concrete mix's water content
- A more efficient way to lessen concrete permeability and, thus, water penetration, is to use higher dosages.
Advantages:
- permits achieving specified strength grades with less cement or with greater workability
- By creating low permeability concrete, water reduction dramatically boosts compressive strengths at all ages and increases durability.
- reduces the chance of segregation and bleeding, helps create a dense, closely grained surface, and increases the durability.
- Safe for use in reinforced and prestressed concrete without the presence of chlorides
Standards compliance:
- complies with IS: 9113-1999
- as an integral waterproofing compound, complies with IS:2645:2003
- meets ASTM C494 Type A requirements for a typical water-reducing admixture.
- Conplast P211 evenly distributes the tiny particles in the concrete mix, improving the uniformity of the concrete and enhancing the performance of the concrete's water content. This results in better workability with the same amount of water, which brings benefits such as reduced water usage and increased strength.

Product specifics:
- Manifestation: A brown liquid
- 1.160-1.190 specific gravity at 25 °C
- Content of chloride: Nil to IS:456
- Entrainment of the air is typically under 1.5%. At typical doses, more air is entrained.
- Less than 5.0g of Na2O equivalent per litre of admixture is the typical alkali level.
- Fosroc Conplast P211 is a practical method for creating concrete of superior quality. It is a preferred choice for concrete construction projects due to its advantages of reduced water use, greater strength, and durability.
