2 “2 2 ee 2 “a a a RHEOMIX® 205 {Formerly Rheomix 400A1) High range water reducing dispersible powder admixture DESCRIPTION " Rheomix 206 ic 2 high range water reducing dispersible powder admiture. It contains 3 sulphonated polymer, and is speciely formulates to impart theoplastie “qualities to concrete and masonry cement Rheomix 205 disperses and Gefloccuiates cement particles thereby increasing ‘the workability and flowabiliy ofthe concrete mixes. Rheomix 205 meets the requirements of ASTM (C494 (Type A and F) and BS 5075 for high range water-educing admixtures. RECOMMENDED FOR Rheomix 208 is recommended for ‘© all types of concrete mixes in which high Strength and very high lowabilty are essential © precast concrete © cold weather concreting ‘© masonry cement FEATURES AND BENEFITS ‘high Short placement time, Saves Very workability time and labour. High wator ‘High impermeabiity and reduction strength. Improved durabily. ‘Superior ‘No segregation even at high cohesion workability. Excellent concrete ually, High early Early demoulding. Shorter strength steam curing cycies Low shrinkage Better dimensioning stability ‘and creep Rheomix 205 maintains workabilty of fresh concrete and masonty cement for a pre-determined time. The duration of the workabilty retention epends on the ambient tompereture, types of ‘cement, aggregates and ther materials used, degussa. Construction Chemicals dosage rate and method of transport. Higher ‘dosages provide longer retention of workabity PROPERTIES Supply form, {ree flowing powder Colour brown COMPATIBILITY Rheomix 208 can be added with ether admixtures provided these are added separately tothe mix DOSAGE RATE Dosage depends upon the mix design, the ambient condfion and the degree of water reduction and Wworkabllty required, Typical dosage used is 300 — '400 grams per 100 kg ofthe weight of cement Test mixes should be carried cut to determine ‘optimum dosage. PACKAGING Rheomix 208 is avalable in 25-kg bag and 120-9 pack. ‘STORAGE ‘Rheomix 205 must be stored in tightly sealed bags tnd placed in a clean dry place, PRECAUTIONS. Health: Rheomix 205 does not contain any hazardous substances requiing special labeling. It is safe to use standard precautions folowed in the ‘construction industry, such as hand gloves, safely gogales, ete.mame EE Ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee Material Safety Data Sheet 1, Wdentification of the substance/preparation and the cot ~~ Comiposition/information on ingredienls RAEOMIX 205 MBT(PHILS.)
