FAIRCURE WX WHITE is a wax based curing compound which
incorporates a special reactive emulsion breaking system. This system ensures
that the emulsion breaks down to form a non-penetrating continuous film
immediately upon contact with a cementitious surface, which permits more
efficient cement hydration, thus reducing shrinkage and increasing durability.
Once formed, the membrane will remain on the concrete surface until eventually
broken down and eroded by natural weathering where it is required to apply a
further treatment to such concrete surface. It may be necessary to remove the
membrane remaining after curing by wire brushing or other mechanical means. In
general for water curing needs more labour and take more time for curing.
BENEFIT
- Single application forms moisture barrier for whole of the curing period.
- Eliminates use of water.
- No risk of erratic or poor curing and ensures hydration of cement efficiently.
- Ensures hard wearing surface-minimises risk of drying shrinkage, cracks and dusty surfaces.
- Easy and safe for spray or brush application.
- Low lebour cost and time saving.
- White pigmented so easy to identify and better reflections.
USES
FAIRCURE WX
WHITE is used for
spraying on freshly casted concrete, or newly exposed concrete surfaces after
removal of formwork, to form a temporary membrane which will retain sufficient
moisture for effective curing to take place. Used for concreting generally but
especially useful for large area of concrete such as pavements, runways and
bridge decks, also for vertical or sloping surfaces as on towers, chimneys,
canal lining, columns and beams where curing is difficult or unreliable.
