Description Description: Intraplast Z is a powder-based grout admixture that promotes expansion and improves fluidity by introducing micro bubbles into the mix. This results in wet volume expansion and enhanced cohesion without segregation. Uses: Intraplast Z is ideal for improving cohesion in cement-based grouts, especially for grouting applications such as: Pre-stressed cable ducts Rock and soil anchoring Bearing plates Pre-placed aggregates Tunnel linings Pre-cast concrete elements Tilt construction wall panels Crack injection Characteristics / Advantages: Enhances grout strength by plasticizing the mix. Gas produced during setting creates expansion (3%-8% by volume), compensating for shrinkage. Retards the setting process to improve grout penetration, reduce bleeding, and prevent water separation. Expansive forces ensure complete void filling. Non-toxic and chloride-free. Product Information: Packaging: 10 kg bag Shelf Life: Minimum 6 months from production date Storage Conditions: Store in dry, sealed packaging at temperatures between 5°C and 35°C, protected from sunlight and frost. Appearance / Colour: Grey powder Bulk Density: ~0.7 kg/L Application Information: Recommended Dosage: 0.2%-2% by weight of cement, with a typical dosage of 0.5%. Exact dosage should be determined through trial mixes. Note: High alumina cement or cement with high fly-ash content is not suitable for use with Intraplast Z. Application Instructions: Application Method / Tools: Mix with cement and add directly to the gauging water. Stir continuously. For pre-stressed concrete, mix for 3 minutes with a W/C ratio of 0.42. Do not add sand to the mix. Cleaning of Tools: Clean tools with water while the material is still fresh. Once hardened, material can only be removed mechanically. Ecology, Health, and Safety: For handling, storage, and disposal instructions, refer to the most recent Safety Data Sheet (SDS).
