Sika AER
Sika®ER
Air' Entraining admixture
Description
Sika AER admixture is a concentrated liquid solution of neutralized
vinsol resin.
Sika AER meets the requirements of ASTM G260 for Air Entraining
Admixtures.
Applications Sika AER can be used whenever air entrained concrete is desired. Ready -
mix, precast and block producers can achieve optimum entrained air contents,
even where harsh mixes are used or fly -ash is added to the mix.
Sika AER is an effective and economical means to improve the paste quality
of lean concrete mixes.
Advantages Durability: Air entrainment is recognized as the most effective prevention
against concrete scaling in exposed environments. Air entrained concrete
delivers particular benefits in the foram of increased concrete durability. This
is important in colder climates where frost and freeze -thaw cycles can cause
scaling and damage to the concrete surface.
Air entraining agents help to prevent scaling by creating millions of microscopic
air voids that water trapped in the concrete can expand into when the concrete
freezes, thus preventing cracks caused by the natural expansion. Entrained air
voids in the concrete will also increase durability in harsh environments where
concrete is exposed to deicing salts, marine salts and sulfates.
Workability and Placeability: Workability and placeability are also improved
by the lubricating action of the microscopic bubbles in the concrete. The
concrete flows better, bleeding and shrinkage is reduced because lower water
content is needed for desired workability.
It has been formulated and manufactured specifically to provide stable and
predictable air contents in concrete, with uniform air bubble spacing through-
out the concrete matrix.
How to Use
Dosage
Dosage rates for Sika AER will typically fall between 0.5 and 1.5 {l. oz.1100
lbs. (32 - 97 mlll00 kg) of cementitious to entrain between 4 and 6 percent air.
Higher air contents may be obtained by increasing the dosage rate.
Dosage rates will vary depending on the air content required for a particular
project. Typically air contents will be specified in the range of 4 to 8 percent by
volume.
Other factors that may affect the amount of air entrained into the concrete
include, but are not limited to total cementitious content, type of pozzolanic
materials, sand gradation, temperature and water content. Sika recommends
that trial mixes be tested whenever material or any other changes are made
that may affect the amount of entrained air.
Mixirlg
Measure the required quantity per batch manually or with automatic dispenser
equipment. Add Sika AER to mixing water or sand. Do not mix with dry ce
ment. When used in combination with other admixtures, care must be taken to
dispense each admixture separately into the mix.
_
Combination with Other Admixtures:
Combination with other admixtures, particularly water reducers and retarders,
will tend to increase the amount of entrained air in the mix. Air contents should
be checked with an air -meter after batching and dosage adjustments made at
the concrete plant.
=° Pac kaging
Sika AER is supplied in 55 gallon (208 Ifter) drums and bulk delivery.
Storage and Shelf Life
Sika AER should be stored at above 40 °F (5 °C). If frozen, thaw and agitate
_
thoroughly to return to its normal state before use.
Shelf life when stored in dry warehouse conditions between 50OF and 80 °F
(10 °C - 27eC) is one year.

Plastocrete 161
Plastocrete ®1 61
Water Reducing Admixture
Description Plastocrete 161 is a lignin polymer -type water- reducing admixture.
Plastocrete 161 meets the requirements of ASTM C-494 Types A, B and D.
Applications Plastocrete 161 is recommended for use in all applications where high quality
concrete with superior workability is required.
Advantages Plastocrete 161 water reducing admixture provides an economical and highly
effective means of reducing the amount of mixing water required to produce
concrete of a certain slump by acting as a dispersant for the cement particles
in the mix.
Through this dispersing action more of the surface area of the cement particles
is available for early hydration. The more cement particles hydrated by contact
with the mixing water, the greater the compressive strength of the concrete.
Plastocrete 161 is formulated as a Type A water reducer to allow up to 10%
water reduction and maximize the benefits of increased hydration in both the
hardened and plastic states.
a Reduced water content required to achieve desired slump, increases
compressive and flexural strengths and allows the use of more economi-
cal mixes.
® Improved paste quality makes concrete easier to pump and finish.
a Consistent normal setting times throughout the recommended dosage.
K Lower water cement ratios provide decreased permeability and increased
durability.
a Plastocrete 161 does not contain intentionally added chlorides and will
not initiate nor promote the corrosion of steel in the concrete.
How to Use
Dosage rates will vary depending on the material used, ambient conditions
and the requirements of a specific project.
For general concreting applications, Sika recommends a dosage rate between
2-4 f1.ozJ100 lbs. (130 -260 mY100 kg) of cementitious materials for normal
setting characteristics. Dosage rates of 4-6 fl.oz.1100 lbs. (260 -390 mV100 kg)
of cementitious materials are recommended for applications where higher
water reduction is needed as well as extended workability and prolonged

Plastiment
Plastiment
Water Reducing and Retarding Admixture
Description Plastiment is a water - reducing and retarding admixture.
Plastiment meets the requirements of ASTM C -494 Types B and D_
Applications Plastiment is recommended for use whenever high quality concrete with pre-
dictable and controlled set times is desired. Use in flatwork and horizontal or
vertical slipform placements where a superior surface finish is required.
Advantages Plastiment is highly effective in hot weather concreting to offset the accelerat-
ing effects of high ambient temperatures by slowing the hydration reaction and
controlling the hydration heat. Concrete workability is enhanced and a supe-
rior surface finish is obtained.
In mass concrete pours Plastiment controls temperature rise and reduces the
risk of thermal cracking.
e Initial set times are delayed, allowing time for proper placement and fin-
ishing without cold joints in hot weather conditions.
>a Plastiment increases concrete density and delivers increased early and
ultimate, compressive and flexural strengths.
How to Use
Dosage Dosage rates will vary depending on the material used, ambient conditions
and the requirements of a specific project.
For general concreting applications, Sika recommends a dosage rate
between 2 -4 fl. oz. 1100 lbs. (130 -260 m11100 kg) of cementifious materials.
Where extended retardation is required dosage may be increased. Dosage
rates outside the recommended range may be used where specialized materi-
als such as microsilica are specified, extreme ambient conditions are encoun-
tered or unusual project conditions require special consideration. In this case
please contact your local regional Sika office or Sika technical service
department at 1 -800- 933 -7452 for further information.

MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET
SECTION 3 — HAZARDS iDeMFICATION
Emergency Overview:
Concrete is a Tight gray fluid mixture that poses an immediate hazard to eye tissue. Exposure of suf ident duration to
wet concrete can cause serious, potentially irreversible tissue (skin or eye) destruction in the form of chemical
(caustic) burns, including third degree bums.
If footwear or clothing becomes saturated with wet concrete, remove immediately and wash area with water and mild
soap. Do not allow prolonged contact.
Potential Health Effects:
Relevant routes of exposure are:
■ EYE CONTACT and SKIN CONTACT
Effects Resulting From EYE CONTACT:
Exposure to wet concrete may cause immediate or delayed irritation or inflammation. Eye contact
by splashes of wet concrete may cause effects ranging from moderate eye irritation to chemical
bums and blindness. Such exposures require immediate fist aid and medical attention to prevent
significant damage to the eye.
Effects Resulting From SKIN CONTACT:
Discomfort or pain cannot be relied upon to alert a person to a hazardous skin exposure.
Consequently, the only effective means of avoiding skin injury or illness involves minimizing skin
contact, particularly contact with wet concrete. Exposed persons may not feel discomfort until
hours after the exposure has ended and significant injury has occurred.
Exposure to moist or wet concrete may cause more severe skin effects including thickentng,
cracking, fissuring of the skin. Prolonged exposure can cause severe skin damage in the form of
(caustic) chemical bums.
Effects Resulting From INHALATION:
Concrete may contain amounts of crystalline silica. Prolonged exposure to respirable free
crystalline silica may aggravate other lung conditions. It may also cause delayed lung injury
including silicosis, a disabling and potentially fatal lung disease, andlorother diseases. (Also see
'Carcinogenic Potential' below.)
Respirable exposure to silica in concrete may occur only if concrete is drilled, cut, ground or
polished. Exposure to concrete dust may cause irritation to the moist mucous membranes of the
nose, throat, and upper respiratory system. The dust may also leave unpleasant deposits in the
nose.
Effects Resulting From INGESTION:
Not Applicable
Chronic Effects
Some individuals may exhibit an allergic response upon exposure to ready -mix concrete. The
response may appear in a variety of forms ranging from a mild rash to severe skin ulcers. Persons
already sensitized may react to their first contact with the product. Others may first experience this
effect after years of contact with ready -mix concrete. Minimizing contact with skin is the basic
protection to reduce this exposure.
octobar 2004 Ready Mix Concrete Page 2 of 2
MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET
Carcinogenic Potential
Ready Mix Concrete is not listed as a carcinogen by NTP, OSHA, or IARC. It may, however,
contain trace amounts of substances listed as carcinogens by those organizations.
Crystalline silica, a potential trace level contaminant In portland cement, is found in the aggregate
components in varying percentages and is classified by IRAC as a known human carcinogen
(Group 1). NTP has characterized respirable silica as "reasonably anticipated to be [a) carcinogen ".
Medical Conditions That May Be Aggravated By Inhalation or Dermal Exposure:
0 Pre - existing upper respiratory and lung diseases.
0 Previous exposure to dust from hardened product
0 Unusual or (hyper) sensitivity to hexavalent chromium (chromium ( +6)) salts.
SECTION 4— FIRST AID MEASURES
Eyes
Skin
Immediately flush eyes thoroughly with water. Continue flushing for 15 minutes, including under the
lids, for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention immediately.
Wash skin with water and pH neutral soap or mild detergent intended for use on skin.
If clothing or footwear is saturated remove immediately and wash area with water and mild soap. If
contact has been severe enough to cause reddening or actual bums to skin, place sterile bandage
on area and seek medical attention.
Inhalation
In wet fort, concrete cannot be inhaled.
Ingestion
In wet form, concrete is unlikely to be ingested. If concrete enters mouth, wash out with water
immediately. Seek medical attention if any burning sensation or actual bums occur.

SECTION 8 — STABUTYAND REACTIVITY
Stability; Stable
Incompatibility: Portland cement reacts with water to produce a caustic solution, pH 12 to pH 13.
Wet concrete is alkaline. As such it is incompatible with acids, ammonium salts,
and aluminum metal. Aluminum powder and other alkali and alkaline earth
elements will react in wet mortar or concrete, [iberaUng hydrogen gas. Concrete
dissolves in hydrofluoric acid producing corrosive silicon tetrafluoride gas.
Silicates react with powerful oxidizers such as fluorine, chlorine, trifluorides, and
oxygen dinuoride.
Hazardous Decomposition: Will not occur.
Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur.
SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE
Normal temperatures and pressures do not affect the material.
Promptly remove dusty clothing or clothing which is wet with concrete fluids and launder before reuse. Wash
thoroughly after exposure to dust or wet cement mixtures or Fluids_
Ready Mix Concrete is premixed at a plant or In a truck mixer drum and delivered to the end user in semi -fluid state
ready to be placed to set in final form.
SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLSIPERSONAL PROTECTION
Eve Protection:
Safety glasses with side shields, or goggles, should be worn when engaged in activities where cement dust, wet
cement, or concrete could contact the eye. In extremely dusty environments and unpredictable Environments,
wear unvented or indirectly vented goggles to avoid eye Irritation or injury. Contact lenses should not be worn
when working with ready rnix concrete or fresh concrete products.
Skin Protection:
Prevention is essential to avoid potentially severe skin injury_ Avoid contact with unhardened (wet) concrete
products. If contact occurs, promptly wash affected area with soap and water. Wear impervious clothing and
gloves to eliminate skin contact where prolonged exposure to unhardened ready mix concrete products might
occur. Wear boots that are impervious to water to eliminate foot and ankle exposure. If standing in wet concrete
rubber boots must be worn to prevent injury.
Wet concrete may splash into open boot and saturate socks and remain in contact for a lengthy period of
time. Prevention is to ensure that boots are fully laced up.
Do not rely on barrier creams; barrier creams should not be used in place of gloves.
Periodically wash areas in contact with dry portland cement, wet cement, or concrete fluids with a pH- neutral
soap. Wash again at the end of workday. If Irritation occurs, immediately wash the affected area and seek
treatment, Clothing saturated with wet concrete should be removed immediately and replaced with clean, dry
clothing. Do not allow clothing saturated with wet concrete to remain in contact with skin for any period of time.
