DESCRIPTION:
AT-CURE (FS) is a non-chloride, hardening, set time accelerating admixture for use in various concrete applications. This innovative and new age construction chemical has been specially developed to enhance the setting characteristics of fresh concrete.
ADVANTAGES:
- Ready to use liquid accelerator
- Reduce setting time in general and specially under cold weather
- Does not contain any added chloride ions ensuring that the product does not contribute to the corrosion of reinforcing steel
- Reduction of chloride attack
- Faster setting time leading to accelerated construction
- In cold climate high early strength – early de-shuttering, early stiffening – quicker finishing operations facilitates concreting even below 5°C
FIELD OF APPLICATION:
- Precast / prestressed concrete production
- Concrete pavement repairs
- Repairs of the industrial floors
- Repairs of concrete slabs and flat members
- Cold weather concreting
- Early de-stripping in cold weather
DOSAGE:
- 20-25 square foot per kg depending on the surface condition (for single coat)
DIRECTION OF USE
- AT-CURE (FS) is a ready-to-use liquid which can be directly sprayed over concrete surface through any standard spray machine.
- We recommend 2 coats for better performance in an interval of at least 1 hour from the first application.
RATE OF HARDENING:
- Hardening depends on temperature of the concrete mix and ambience temperature.
- Forms, earth, reinforcement, air, etc. affect the hardening rate of concrete.
- At higher temperatures, concrete hardens more rapidly.
- Normally AT-CURE (FS) admixture accelerates the setting time of concrete depending on ambience temperature and substrate temperature.
PACKAGING & STORAGE:
- AT-CURE (FS) is available in 5 kg / 25 kg / 250 kg HDPE container
