Mid-Range/High Range Water Reducing Admixture

PLASTOL 6420 is a polycarboxylate based plasticizing admixture for concrete which is flexible enough to use as an ASTM C 494 Type A & Type F water reducer while providing improved workability retention.  PLASTOL 6420 is a mid-range/high-range water reducing and plasticizing admixture for concrete.  PLASTOL 6420 shows improved finishing characteristics when compared to other commonly used Type A (typically 5-6% water reduction) or Type F (typically 12-15% water reduction) admixtures.  This mid-range approach to water reducing admixtures allows for a wide range of usable dosage rates for a broad application spectrum.  PLASTOL 6420 does not contain calcium chloride.
