Duplast NP is a ready-to-use liquid which is dispensed into the concrete together with the mixing water. The plasticising effect and water reduction are higher if the admixture is added to the damp concrete after 50% to 70% of the mixing water has been added.
DosageDuplast NP admixture is recommended for use at a dosage of 150ml to 250ml / 50 kg) of cementitious materials for Type A applications and up to 350 ml / 50 kg) for Type B and D requirements. Because of variations in atmospheric conditions, job conditions and concrete materials, dosages other than the recommended amounts may be required. In such cases, contact your local sales representative.
The correct quantity of Duplast NP should be measured with recommended dispenser and should be thoroughly dispersed with approx. 25 % of the recommended water content (based on mix design by weight) Mix concrete constituents along with balance approx. 75 % of the recommended water content (based on mix design by weight) for 3 minutes. As soon as step 2 is over, the admixture dispersed in water (as in step-1) is to be added to the wet concrete and mix it further for 2-3 minutes to get a homogeneous mix.
Duplast NP admixture may be used in combination with any Dubond admixture. When used in conjunction with other admixtures, each admixture must be dispensed separately into the mix. It is also compatible with slag and pozzolans such as fly ash, metakaolin and silica fume.
CorrosivityDubond Duplast NP(Normal Plasticizer) shall neither initiate nor promote corrosion of reinforcing steel in concrete.
Safety precautionsAs with all chemical products, care should be taken during use and storage to avoid contact with eyes, mouth, skin and foodstuffs (which can also be tainted with vapour until product fully cured or dried)
Shelf LifeDuplast NP has a minimum shelf life of 6 to 12 months. Depending on storage conditions, the shelf life may be greater than stated below 40C. Please contact your local sales representative regarding suitability for use and dosage recommendations if the shelf life of Duplast NP admixture has been exceeded.
