Gyproc Xpert Stucco Gypsum Plaster (BP0006) stands as a high-quality stucco plaster engineered to cater to a wide range of applications, including brickwork, block work, and concrete surfaces. Comprising Gypsum Hemihydrate blended with specialized additives, it excels in punning tasks, creating distinctive bull marks and level strips. The formulation ensures enhanced working characteristics and a remarkably short setting time of 10 minutes, facilitating efficient and quick plastering.
This stucco gypsum plaster provides more than just a visually appealing finish. It guarantees a perfectly lined and leveled shiny surface, eliminating concerns about wastage and setting a benchmark for coverage in its class. Gyproc Xpert boasts extra whiteness, doesn’t require water curing, and is non-combustible, providing an additional layer of thermal protection to the building structure. The use of lightweight aggregates in the mix further enhances its thermal resistance, with a Thermal Resistance (R) of 0.07m²K/W at a 13mm thickness.
With Greenpro Certification and compliance with IS 2547 (Part I)-1976 standards for chemical and physical characteristics, Gyproc Xpert assures both quality and sustainability. The product is available in convenient sizes of 20 kg and 25 kg, packaged in HDPE bags with essential information such as safety instructions, batch number, manufacturing date, and application guidelines.
Technical parameters, including dry bulk density, wet bulk density, water-to-powder ratio, and setting time, are meticulously specified to aid users in achieving optimal results. The plaster’s chemical composition, primarily Calcium Sulphate Hemihydrate (CaS04. ½ H2O), underscores its reliability and performance.
The application process is detailed, covering background preparation, mixing instructions, and application techniques. Gyproc Xpert is designed for a thickness range of 3-15 mm on walls in one coat and up to 10 mm on ceilings. The plaster should be applied with firm pressure, ruled to an even surface, and left as an undercoat for the finish coat. The set plaster surface is ready for painting after complete drying, typically within 72 hours.
Storage and handling guidelines ensure the integrity of the product, emphasizing the importance of keeping bags dry to prevent water absorption, setting time reduction, and the formation of set lumps. Additional precautions regarding tile application and recommendations for reducing separation cracks are provided.
In summary, Gyproc Xpert Stucco Gypsum Plaster combines advanced formulation, efficient application, and high performance, making it a reliable choice for professionals seeking a superior stucco plaster solution.
