SPECIFICATION
DESCRIPTION
Plast-O-Proof STD is an integral water proofing compound ideal for use with both concrete and plasters. Plast-O-Proof STD is based on specialised surfactants and synthetic resin which impart superior flow and cohesive properties in concrete and mortars. Use of integral water proofing compounds in concrete and mortar is one of the precautions taken to achieve a waterproof concrete or plaster.
ADVANTAGES
Durability is increased due to air entrainment.
Segregation, bleed and thereafter honeycombing is prevented.
Surface finish of concrete and plasters improved.
Attack by sulphates and chlorides from ground water in coastal areas is well tolerated.
DIRECTION FOR USE
Add Plast-O-Proof STD in concrete and mortar along with water at the rate of 100 gms per bag of 50 kg cement. In demanding situations the dosage could be doubled 200 gms.
ACTION
In concrete:

CAUTION
A good water proof concrete or plaster is achieved by good construction practices. Precuations taken to achieve the goals include:
1. Proper mix design.
2. Selection of good aggregates, sand and cement.
3. Adhering to W/C ratio in the range of 0.45.
4. Proper mixing, placing and curing.
5. Use of good integral water proofer.
It is emphasised that integral water proofers and plasticisers only help in making a good concrete better. Hence observation of good construction practices is of utmost importance for achieving the overall goal.
