Sikament



NN
High Range Water Reducing
Description A highly effective dual action liquid superplasticizer for the production of free
flowing concrete or as a substantial water-reducing agent for promoting high
early and ultimate strengths. Chloride free.
Complies with A.S.T.M. C 494-92 Type F

Use Sikament

NN is used as a super plasticizer in the production of free flowing


concrete for use in :
I Slabs and foundations
I Walls, columns and piers.
I Slender components with densely packed reinforcement.
I Textured surface finishes.

It is also used as a water-reducing agent leading to high early strength concrete for
use in :
I Pre-cast concrete elements
I Pre-stressed concrete
I Bridges and cantilever structures
I Areas of concrete where formwork must be removed quickly or early load will be
applied.

Advantages Sikament

NN provides the following properties :


As a Superplasticizer :
I Workability is greatly improved. Increased placeability in slender components
with packed reinforcement.
I Decreases the amount of vibration required. Normal set without retardation.
I Significantly reduces risk of segregation.

As a Water reducer :
I Up to 20% reduction of water will produce 40% increase in 28 days compressive
strength.
I High strength after 12 hours.

Dosage Sikament

NN can be used at the dose rate 0.30% - 2.30% by total weight of


cementitious material depending on requirements concerning workability and
strength.

It is recommended that trial mixes be conducted to determine the exact dosage rate
required.

Note :
Typical dosage rate for use with silica sand is 0.60 % - 1.8% by weight of
cementitious material for normal precast concrete application.

Typical dosage rate for use with combination of manufactured sand / volcanic
sand is 0.8 % - 2.3% by weight of cementitious material for normal precast
concrete application.

For more specific requirements, advice is available from our Technical Service
Department to determine the usage rate for optimum results.

Dispensing Sikament

NN can be added to the mixing water prior to its addition to the


aggregates or as in most cases, it can be added directly to the freshly mixed
concrete.
When added directly to the freshly mixed concrete, the plasticizing effect is more
pronounced.
For ready-mix concrete, Sikament

NN is added to the concrete immediately prior


to discharge and after further mixing has taken place for about three to five minutes.

Combinations

Sikament

NN may be combined with the following products:


I Plastocrete series
I Plastiment series
I Sika Pump
I SikaFume
I Sika AER

Pre-trials are recommended if combinations with the above products are required.
Please consult our Technical Service Department.
