Testing Detail: - Used 50 KN Testing Machine of AIMIL with NABL Calibration Valid up to 18 th August-2019. Also used 50 mm cubes and water
taken @28 % by wt. Lab Condition 27°C & RH 65 %. .No Vibrating machine used while filling of cubes. Normal water used for 27°C/ RH 60-65
%... Protocol: IS.2250/ IS-4031. In February-2018 Standard Deviation observed @1d= 0.42, 3d= 0.12, 7d=1.86, 14d= 0.08, 28d=0.3.

2. Consistency Test (Using Flow Table and 100 mm base cone)

Spread using Flow Table @base Cone 100 mm

& 28% water at at 27° C without bump
170

3. Water Retentivity Test (Using Flow Table & AAC Block) as per IS-2250.

Water Retentivity = 90-100 %

4. Pot life Test :

For zero loss of spread, time observed on flow table = 30 Minute (Observation: No loss observed at 30 Minutes)
5. Coverage Test

(Using 495 gm of dry powder+ 28 % water applied for Jointing of two AAC Block of 650x150) = 170 Sq Ft.

4. Particle Size Distribution Using Standard Sieves:-

Passing through % Passing of

Standard Sieve size above batch No
2.36 mm 100
1.18 mm 100
0.850 mm 100
0.600 mm 88.8
0.300 mm 46.3
0.150 mm 33.4
0.105 mm 31.3
0.090 mm 31.1

5. Setting Time using standard Vicat Apparatus with IST, FST Needles at room temperature of 27 ° C

Initial Setting Time @ 28 % Water= 10 - 11 Hrs

Final Setting Time @ 28 % Water= 11 - 12 Hrs

6. Splitting Tensile Adhesion Strength Test of raw mix. = 0.60-0.70 N/mm2

Note:

1. For Quality Related Issue (if any), report batch number printed on Bag with consignment details.

2. Weight of Empty Bag= 65 gm @40 Kg Bag. Dispose the Empty bag after use and not use to fill other
material. Follow safety guidelines. Mixing: For 40 Kg thin bed jointing mortar Bag, add 10-12 Lit Water. Mix
for 3-5 Minutes by electrical Mixer. Then Allow Mortar to stand for 5 Minutes... Mix Again for 2-3 Minutes
and then apply @ 2-3 mm thickness. Surface wetting of blocks is required before application.

3. Use No hooks while loading/Unloading of Material. Do not Drag over Floor by holding stitching part of bag
to avoid torn of bags. Use wooden pallets to avoid moisture from floor.

4. Batch Number, Month and Year, MRP are written on each bag. For spreading Block Jointing Adhesive on
Blocks, Use Ascolite Notched Trowel of size 4”, 6” and 9” to get the desired bed thickness of 2-3 mm. Do
surface Wetting of Blocks before lay.

Use Mechanical Mixer for fast Mixing to get better results at site. Modified Polymers are added in Material
procured from reputed brands to get better water retentively, self-curing property, improved compressive strength
and tensile adhesion strength and good workability. Dry River Sand from Gujarat is graded and have negligible silt
content and free from deleterious materials. Maximum particle size of sand is 1 mm. Cement Used is ISI Marked
OPC 53 Grade from reputed Brands. .All Tests Conducted at Lab Temperature 27°C ± 2 °C and Standard Mixing
procedure (For better performance of material while in use, follow Application Guidelines).
