ADVANTAGES

• Withstands chloride ion diffusion & sulphate/CO² attack due to marine or industrial weather.
• Improves bond strengths to hardened concrete.
• Dense, impermeable, mortar for column & beam repairs.
• Reduces rate of corrosion while applied on steel bars.
• Reduces cracking through increased mortar flexural strength.
• Increases mortar wear resistance under rubber wheeled traffic.
• Increases mortar tensile strength.

APPLICATION

• Toppings, patches and leveling courses on concrete structured members.
• Thin sets, terrazzo, stucco and bonding slurries.
• General reconstruction work and latex modified overlays.
• Passivating coat on reinforcement.

APPLICATION METHODOLOGY

• Ensure that concrete is 3 days old if CLI SBR - 41C is used as a slurry bond coat. Do not place slurry coat on standing water.
• Ensure that the concrete is clean and rough. Remove all oil, dirt, debris, paint and unsound concrete.
• The surface must be prepared mechanically using a scabbler, bush hammer, shot blast or scarifier which will give a surface profile of a minimum 3 mm and expose the large aggregate of the concrete.
• Use vacuum cleaner or pressure washing to ensure thorough cleaning and removal of all residue.
• Ensure all concrete possess an open surface texture with all curing compounds and sealers removed.
• Pre-wet all areas to reduce moisture loss. Do not place product on standing water.
• For bonding toppings with this product, CLI strongly recommends using a slurry coat rather than using this product as a primer by itself.
• Prime all prepared surface areas with a slurry coat before applying the topping.
• Follow mixing using drill machine fitted with paddle or small mixer machine. Place the topping on the slurry coat before the slurry coat dries out.
• Slurry Application: Spread the slurry with a stiff bristle broom until the suggested coverage rate is achieved.
• Topping Application: For patching, spread with a trowel, come-a-long, or a square tipped shovel to a thickness that matches the surrounding concrete. Finish by hand trowelling.
• On large floor areas, use screed strips as guides in combination with vibratory screeding to level. Compact and finish by hand or machine trowel.
• Proper curing procedures are important to ensure the durability and quality of the repair or over layment. To prevent surface cracking, a moist cure should be maintained for 24 hours, upto 3 days.
• Structural repairs for columns & beams can be executed using polymer mortar. This is a dry pack method to build up the spalled areas of the cover zone concrete and has high compressive and tensile strengths.

CHARACTERISTICS
