Trisha SNF 4308 is an aqueous Sulphonated Naphthalene based synthetic polymer, which in concrete displays powerful dispersion effect on both cement and pozzolanas. It forms a lubricating layer between the particles and thus lowers the internal friction between the concrete components to yield better consistency, easy flowability, greater workability, faster and higher ultimate strength. Effects on SNF 4308 Addition On Concrete The exact percentage of Trisha SNF 4308 in each cement composition will depend on the ultimate application requirement and may have to be arrived at by actual trial. However, incorporation of Trisha SNF 4308 in concrete compositions will result in : Strong concrete plasticizing without any tendency to segregation. Improvement of pumpability Faster early and ultimate strength Reduced time for pouring Less vibration Close - textured fair - faced surfaces Good workability Dosage Recommended dosage of 1 - 3 % on weight of cement depending on the application/ requirement. It may result in reduction of water content in the composition up to 30%. Compatibility with other Admixtures Trisha SNF 2143 can be used together with other concrete admixtures such as retarders, accelerators and air entrainers. It is compatible with most of the known brands, but we recommend to carry out compatibility test under loc al conditions before using. The different admixtures should not be premixed but added separately to concrete. Safety and Handling Precautions Trisha SNF 4308 is an alkaline solution. It may cause irritation to eyes and skin on direct and prolonged contact. Hands should be thoroughly washed with soap and water before meals and at the end of the working day. Packing and storage Trisha SNF 4308 is supplied in road tankers, drum and reconditioned IBC or bulk in stainless steel tank containers. It is recommended to store Trisha SNF 4308 at around 25°C in closed original packing protected from direct sun light. When stored under recommended conditions, the shelf life would be not less than 6 months.
