Chemcure White Pigmented

Concrete Curing Compound
_______________________________________________________________________________
Product Description Chemcure White Pigmented liquid curing compound is based
on emulsified paraffin containing white pigments for reflection
of sun light. Chemcure White Pigmented complies with ASTM
C 309 Type 2 Class A.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Uses Chemcure White Pigmented is used for preventing water loss
mainly on structural concrete surfaces where subsequent surface
treatment will be required.
Chemcure White Pigmented curing compound is applied to
newly laid concrete surfaces to form a thin film barrier against
premature water loss. Without affecting the normal setting
action, the concrete is then allowed to cure and achieve the
desired strength.
Chemcure White Pigmented is particularly useful in large areas
of exposed concrete, such as:
-- Bridge decks
-- Runways and aprons
-- Retaining walls
-- Pre-stressed structural elements
-- Irrigation canals/channels
_______________________________________________________________________________
Advantages Chemcure White Pigmented curing compound provides
following advantages:
-- Reduced plastic and drying shrinkage cracking.
-- Achievements of desired strengths
-- Minimise shrinkage
-- Alleviate other costly methods such as hessian-watering.
-- Increase frost resistance
