SikaPlast®-1000 ES

Polycarboxylate water reducer and hardening accelerator for dry-cast products

Product Overview

SikaPlast®-1000 ES is a modified polycarboxylate admixture that combines water reduction with hardening acceleration for the precast and paver industry. It disperses cement, additives and pigments efficiently, so mixes are uniform and well coloured, then accelerates hardening to build high early strength. That early strength lets producers demould sooner, turn moulds faster and lift output, while keeping a good surface finish and improved watertightness without sacrificing ultimate strength. It suits precast and prestressed elements, grey and coloured block paving, cement tiles, paving flags, kerbstones, building blocks and bricks. Conforming to IS 9103 and ASTM C494, it is supplied across India by Space Arc Engineering as an authorized Sika distributor, with dosing and trial support for high-volume plants.

Features & Benefits

  • Accelerated hardening builds high early strength for faster mould turnaround
  • Enables early demoulding, increasing daily output from the same moulds
  • Efficiently disperses cement, additives and pigments for uniform, well-coloured units
  • Improves surface finish on faced and coloured products
  • Raises watertightness without reducing ultimate strength
  • Versatile across precast, prestressed, paving and block production

Technical Highlights

CoverageRecommended dosage is 0.5% to 3.0% by weight of cement, depending on cement, sand grading, w/c ratio and temperature.
StrengthPromotes high early strength for early demoulding while protecting ultimate strength; refer to TDS for values.
PerformanceCombines efficient dispersion of cement and pigments with accelerated hardening and improved watertightness.
Application ConditionsMinimum 60-second wet mix recommended; store dry between +10°C and +40°C, protected from sunlight and frost.
PackagingWhitish hazy liquid (~1.02 kg/l, pH ≥6) supplied in 20 kg and 230 kg containers; 12-month shelf life sealed.

Applications

  • Precast and prestressed concrete elements needing fast mould cycles
  • Grey and coloured interlocking block paving production
  • Cement tiles and paving flags requiring clean, uniform finishes
  • Kerbstones and channel units for roads and landscaping

Frequently Asked Questions

What is SikaPlast-1000 ES used for?

It is a polycarboxylate water reducer and accelerator for the precast and paver industry. It speeds hardening and builds high early strength so producers can demould early and increase output, while keeping good finish and watertightness.

What dosage of SikaPlast-1000 ES is recommended?

The recommended dosage is 0.5% to 3.0% by weight of cement, varying with cement type, sand grading, water-cement ratio and ambient temperature. Fix the optimum with plant trials and the TDS.

Does SikaPlast-1000 ES allow early demoulding?

Yes. Its accelerated hardening and high early strength are designed to let elements demould sooner, helping faster mould reuse and higher production rates.

Is SikaPlast-1000 ES suitable for coloured pavers?

Yes. It disperses cement, additives and pigments efficiently for uniform colour and improved surface finish on coloured units. Confirm pigment dosing via trials and the TDS.
