SIKA® PLASTIRETARD GM 10

Sika® Plastiretard GM 10 is a setting retarder for concrete, complying with standard NF EN 934-2 – Table 8. It can be used in all types of concrete. Depending on the dosage, it also acts as a water reducer, significantly improving the mechanical performance and workability of concrete. Benefits and performance Thanks to a water reduction of 10 to 15%, Sika® Plastiretard GM 10 allows: An increase in long-term mechanical resistance of 20 to 30% A notable improvement in the compactness of concrete Better durability of structures Areas of application Concreting in hot weather and large mass concretes The setting delay effect allows: To avoid a sudden rise in temperature when taking Safe use when temperatures are high An ideal application for large-scale concrete structures (dams, rafts, massifs) Concreting restarts Allows you to resume work after several hours of interruption Without special precautions, apart from protection against desiccation Long-term transport of concrete Facilitates the transport of concrete over long distances Maintains workability whatever the weather or traffic conditions Improved handling As a retarding plasticizer, it is particularly suitable: Easier implementation To pumped concrete For raw formwork concrete, with improvement in the appearance of the facings Specific applications Reinforced concrete Prestressed concrete Reservoir concretes
