Concrete Surface Retarder

Features

X-POSE Concrete Surface Retarder is a uniquely formulated liquid that retards the surface of the concrete, whilst allowing the subsurface to still harden. This unique feature allows easy removal of the treated concrete while the subsurface concrete remains hard and limits the failure of aggregate bond in the exposed concrete.

Surfaces treated with X-POSE provide an excellent surface for bonding subsequent concrete overlays without the need for mechanical abrasion. X-POSE V is available as a paintable Gell for application onto formwork.

ADVANTAGES

Ready to use with no dilution
Totally water based
Controlled depth of penetration
Easy to handle store and use
VOC compliant

USES

Driveways and decorative concrete
Civil construction

AD-TEK H

–

Surface Hardener

Features

AD-TEK H is a blended aqueous solution, free of chlorides. It is especially formulated as a penetrative corrosion Inhibitor that significantly hardens the surface and increases the durability of concrete.

On new hardening concrete, AD-TEK H:

Reduces water loss of fresh concrete by 40%
Promotes efficient cement hydration
Stops surface dusting
Reduces surface cracking
Increases surface hardness, impermeability and durability
Enhances concrete protective properties against steel reinforcement corrosion

As a primer for most cementitious renders and polymeric coatings, AD-TEK H:

Increases the adhesive bond strength of the renders and polymeric coatings

As a treatment for brickwork, AD-TEK H:

Works as a hardener and durability enhancer of brickwork joints

ADVANTAGES

Densifies and hardens the surface layer
Stops surface dusting
Increases impermeability, chemical resistance and durability
Restores the protective properties of the concrete against reinforcement corrosion.
Repairs cracks up to 1mm.

USES

Restoration of degraded concrete structures (approved for use on Heritage sites).
Dust proofing of factory floors.
Surface hardening and abrasion resistance of concrete surfaces i.e. floors, road works, bridge decks etc.
Reinstatement of poorly finished concrete.
Primer for cementitious renders and cementitious crack repair systems
Primer for coatings of all types.
Water retention agent for new hardening concrete.

AD-TEK PW

–

Surface Hardener

Features

Ad-Tek PW is a blended silicate solution, free of chlorides that provides long-term waterproofing and durability to concrete. Ad-Tek PW penetrates into the concrete and reacts with free calcium forming a calcium silicate gel in pores, capillaries and cracks. This gel creates a sub-surface barrier against the penetration of water and contaminants such as chloride and sulphate ions, protecting steel against corrosion and increasing sulphate resistance of concrete. After application, the Ad-Tek PW remains active in the concrete body to provide, self-generating healing properties to future hairline cracks.

ADVANTAGES

On new hardening concrete

Ad-tek PW reduces water loss of fresh concrete by 25%
Promotes efficient cement hydration
Stops surface dusting
Reduces surface cracking
Increases surface hardness, impermeability and durability
Enhances concrete protective properties
against steel reinforcement corrosion

USES

As a waterproofing and durability enhancer

Provides long-term waterproofing
Seals cracks up to 2mm
Densifies and hardens the surface layer, increasing the protective properties of the concrete against reinforcement corrosion.
Increases chemical resistance.
Easy to handle store and use
Can permeate through substrates down to silty fine sands

On new hardening concrete

increases waterproofing, surface hardeners and durability
promotes efficient cement hydration during the curing phase
reduces the possibility of surface cracking
