ADDMIX® 215
ADDMIX 215 is composed of synthetic polymers specially designed to impart rheoplastic
and set retarding qualities to concrete, especially for RMC’s.
Specification:
The retarding, superplasticising admixture for concrete shall be ADDMIX 215, a sulphonated
naphthalene polymer based formulation having slump retaining capabilities.
Uses:
Ready mixed concrete
Long hauls
Concrete containing Granulated Slag/ Pozzolans
Pumped concrete
Mass concrete pours
Hot weather concreting
Advantages:
Reduced thermal peaks
High workability for longer periods
Extended setting with longer workability
Reduced water content for a given workability
Higher ultimate strengths
Lower pumping pressure
Reduced permeability & Improved durability
Resistance to segregation even at high workability
Reduced shrinkage and creep.
Typical Properties:
Appearance Dark Brown free flowing liquid
Specific Gravity 1.18 ± 0.02 at 25°C
pH >6
Chloride ion content < 0.2%

Standards:
ASTM C-494 Type G
EN 934-2: T11.1/11.2
IS 9103
Packaging:
ADDMIX 215 is supplied in 5 kg, 20 kg, & 240 kg packing.
Application procedure:
Direction for use: -
ADDMIX 215 is a ready-to-use liquid which is dispensed into the concrete together with the
mixing water. The plasticising effect and water reduction are higher if the admixture is added
to the damp concrete after 50 to 70% of the mixing water has been added.
Dosage: -
Optimum dosage of ADDMIX 215 should be determined with trial mixes. As a guide, a dosage
range of 200 ml to 1.2 lit per 50 kg. of cement/cementitious material is recommended as a
starting point. Because of variations in concrete materials, job site conditions, and/or
applications, dosages outside of the recommended range may be required. In such cases,
contact your local SP CONCARE representative.
A slight overdosing may not adversely affect the ultimate strength of the concrete and can
achieve higher strengths than normal concrete, provided it is properly compacted and cured.
Compatibility:
ADDMIX 215 is compatible with most admixtures used in the production of quality concrete
including normal, other mid-range and high-range water- reducing admixtures, air

Workability:
ADDMIX 215 ensures that rheoplastic concrete remains workable in excess of 2 hours at
+25°C. Workability loss is dependent on temperature, and on the type of cement, the nature
of aggregates, the method of transport and initial workability.
