ADIPLAST is a polymer latex used as an admixture to significiantly improve the properties of mortars. More specifically, it:
- Increases adhesion to the substrate.
- Improves elasticity.
- Impressively increases abrasion resistance.
- Makes mortars water impremeable.
- Eliminates shrinkage and prevents resulting cracks.
- Improves plasticity, water retention and workability of fresh mixtures.
- Improves resistance to chemicals and petroleum products.
ADIPLAST may be used in:
- Bonding layers between old and new concrete or mortar.
- Repair mortars and thin layers.
- Wear-resistant, dust-proof floor screeds.
- Waterproof cement mortars, resistant to hydrostatic pressure.
- Floor screeds of under heating systems.
- Plasters of high strength and water impermeability.
- Mortars with resistance to chemicals and petroleum products.
- Adhesives for unsulation boards, tiles or other coverings.
- Additives for improvement of wear and weather resistance of water paints (lime emulsions).
- Grouting mortars for natural stones.
- Mortars for forming fillets at wall to floor junctions.
- Protection of green (fresh) concrete against premature dehydration.
Substrate preparation
The substrate must be clean and free of dust, loose materials, oil, grease or old plaster, paint, cement residue, etc. It should be thoroughly dampened but without ponding.
Application
ADIPLAST latex is added to the mixing water of mortars. The quantity of ADIPLAST depends on the desired effect and technical requirements (see application examples). ADIPLAST solution should be added into the mixer first, before cement and aggregates, to avoid clumping. Working time of mortars with ADIPLAST is slightly increased.
18 months from production date if stored in original, unopened packaging at temperatures between +5oC and +35oC. Portect from direct sunlight and frost.
