Consult with Penetron s Technical Depart-ment for as sistance in verifying the appropriate dosage rat e and for further information regarding enhanced chemical resistance and optimum concret e performance for your : PENETRON ADMIX must be added to the concrete at the time of sequence of procedures for addition will vary according to the type of batch plant operation and equipment. The following are some typical mixing guidelines. For more detailed information on dosing procedures, contact your Penetron mix plant - Dry batch operation: Add PENETRON ADMIX in powder form to the drum of the ready-mix truck.
2 Drive the truck under the batch plant and add 60%-70% of the required water, al ong with 300-500 lb (136-227 kg) of aggregate. Mix the materials for 2-3 minutes to ensure the PENETRON ADMIX is distributed evenly throughout the mix water . Add the balance of materials to the ready-mix truck in accordance with stan-dard batching mix plant - Central mix operation: Mix PENETRON ADMIX with water to form a very thin slurry ( 40 lb (18 kg) of powder mixed with 6 gallons ( l) of water). Pour the required amount of material into the drum of the ready-mix truck. The aggregate, cement, sand and water should be batched and mixed in the plant in ac cor dance with standard pr actices (t aking into ac count the quantity of water that has already been placed in the ready-mix truck).
3 Pour the concret e into the truck and mix for at least 5 minutes to ensure even distribution of PENETRON ADMIX throughout the concret batch plant: Add PENETRON ADMIX to the rock and sand, then mix thoroughly for 2-3 minutes befor e adding the cement and water . The tot al concret e mass should be blended using standard : It is important to obtain a homogeneous mixture of PENETRON ADMIX with the concret e. Theref or e, do not add dry PENETRON ADMIX powder directly to wet concret e as this may cause clumping and thorough dispersion will not oc cur. For further information regarding the pr oper use of PENETRON ADMIX for a specific pr oject, consult with a Penetron technical time and str ength: The setting time of concret e is affected by the chemical and physical composition of ingredients, temperature of the concret e and climatic conditions.
4 Retar dation of set may oc cur when using PENETRON ADMIX . The amount of ret ar dation will depend upon the concret e mix design and TOTAL C ONCRETE PROT E C T ION DESCRIPTIONPENETRON ADMIX (integral crystalline water-pr oofing admix) is added to the concret e mix at the time of batching. PENETRON ADMIX consists of Portland cement and various active, pr oprietary chemicals. These active chemicals react with the moisture in fr esh concret e and with the by-products of cement hydration to cause a cat al ytic reaction, which generat es a non-soluble crystalline formation throughout the pores and capillary tr acts of the concret e. Thus, the concret e becomes permanently sealed against the penetration of water or liquids from any direction.

7 Concret e containing PENETRON ADMIX may develop higher ultimate str engths than plain concret e. Trial mixes should be carried out under pr oject conditions to determine setting time and str ength of the concret e tr eated with PENETRON ADMIX should be placed and finished in accordance with good concret e pr actices. ACI guidelines and rec ommendations should be CONSIDERATIONSWhen incorporating PENETRON ADMIX , the temperature of the concret e mix should be above 40 F (4 C).PACKAGINGPENETRON ADMIX is av ailable in 40 lb (18 kg) bags, 55 lb (25 kg) pails, and lb (3 kg) soluble bags.
