Mechanism of Action
The two most important mechanism attributed to dispersion in polycarboxylate systems are linked to polymer adsorption and steric hindrance caused by the thickness of the adsorbed polymer layer on to the cement particle and repulsion through induced electrical electrostatic charge.
Standard Compliance
FARCOPLAST P10N complies with
- ASTM C 494 -Type F
- ISIRI 2930 –Table 3 , 4
- EN 934-2 –Table 3.1 / 3.2

Application
FARCOPLAST P10N is recommended for use in all types of concrete including pumped, precast, silica fume , fly ash , extruded , prestressed, underwater, flowable and self –compacting concrete.
Advantage
- Provides a cohesive non-segregating concrete mixture.
- Produces high slump concrete at low dosage with no strength loss.
- Fast strength development.
- Reduces placing and consolidation time and labor expenses.
- Reduces curing time and faster reuse of forms.
- Improves impermeability against sulfate , chloride and water due to reduced water content.
- Improves abrasion and frost resistance by decreasing W/CM.
- Increases concrete durability, uniformity and strengths at all ages.
Method of use
- FARCOPLAST P10N is supplied ready for use and is completely miscible in water.
- It can be added in to the mixer at the same time as the mixing water.
- It should not be added directly to the cement or dry materials.
- FARCOPLAST P10N may be added at the end of mixing process by dispensing equipment or it may also be added to the concrete in a drum of ready mix truck, it should be mixed at least 1 minute per m³ of concrete at high speed.
