Description Ozone SP-540 is a highly effective water reducing admixture and super-plasticizer to produce high quality,
free-flowing concrete. The dual action of Ozone SP-540 provides excellent slump retention and promotes
accelerated hardening with high early and ultimate strengths. Suite able for use in cold and hot climatic
conditions.
Primary Application Cold weather concreting.
Hot weather concreting.
Structural concrete.
Concrete block.
Concrete pipe and many pre-cast items.
Bridges.
High strength concrete.
Self compacting concrete (SCC), super workable flowing concrete and high workability concrete.
Extremely fluid, flowing concretes can be produced at very low water to cement ratios providing
ease of mold filling and less workmanship where access or dense reinforcement can be a
challenge.
Advantages Substantial improvement in workability without increased water.
Long-lasting control of slump loss.
It provides high early strength for fast form stripping.
Specially suitable for hot & cold climates.
Densifies concrete.
Minimizes bleeding and segregation.
Specifications Complies with ASTM C-494,Type F & G.
Packaging 210 Ltr. drums, 1000 Ltr. totes and bulk.
Storage Store in a dry and cool place below 35°C. Protect from direct sunlight.
Shelf life 12 months if stored properly in original unopened packaging.
Properties
Appearance Brown liquid
Specific gravity 1.18 at 20°C
Chloride content Nil to BS 5075
Air entrainment Less than 2% at normal dosage
Instruction for use Dosage: 0.8-2.5 Ltr/100kg of cement. It is advisable to carry out trial mixes to establish the exact dosage
rate required.
Dispensing: Ozone SP-540 should be added to gauging water prior to its addition to the dry mix
concrete or separately to the freshly mixed concrete. When added separately to the freshly mixed
concrete further mixing time of 2-3 minutes should be given.
Placing: The standard rules of good concreting practice for production and placing must be observed
when using Ozone SP-540 concrete.
Curing: Fresh concrete must be cured properly. Use Ozone CureCrete or wet hessian.
Compatibility: Ozone SP-540 is compatible with all types of cement.
Effect of overdosing: When accidental overdosing occurs, the retardation of initial set air content and
workability increases. During this period the concrete must be kept moist in order to prevent premature
drying out.
Technical Support Ozone offers technical support, services to consultants, end-users, and contractors. We also provide
technical assistance on site.
Cleaning & Disposal All tools and equipment should be washed with water immediately after use. Do not dispose of into water
or soil but according to local regulations.
