FRACURE Emulsion

Non Degradable Acrylic Curing Compound

FRACURE EMULSION is a synthetic water based emulsion. When applied to newly poured concrete FRACURE EMULSION quickly dries to form a tough long lasting wear resistant film with low water vapour permeability. By reducing evaporation from the concrete surface, the water necessary for cement hydration is maintained. This allows the maximum development of compressive and tensile strength in the finished concrete and results in a more durable surface with lower permeability.

USES

  • FRACURE EM ULSION is suitable for use on all concrete surfaces m ade from Portland and other hydraulic type cements. All exposed elements of a structure subject to water loss due to evaporation should be cured. These include floor slabs, columns, beams, walls, precast panels etc.
  • FRACURE EMULSION is compatible with most plaster and paint finishing systems and having good U.V. and alkali resistance, will rem ain sound during construction until such finishes are applied.
  • Being non-toxic FRACURE EMULSION is suitable for use on potable water retaining structures.
