One of the most important additives in the concrete industry is concrete adhesive. Concrete adhesive applications include concrete repair, sealing, restoration of old concrete tissues, increased concrete strength, prevention of concrete cracking, increased chemical and mechanical properties, etc. Concrete adhesives can be divided into epoxy and latex (polymer). All adhesives either contain polymers or are produced by chemical reaction. Polymers bind to adhesives.
Properties, effects and usage:
- As sealant in high cement mortar and concrete
- Increase the adhesion resistance of new mortar and concrete to old surfaces and rebar
- Prevent cracking of mortar and fresh concrete
- Repair of concrete and mortar surface damage to a depth of 7 cm
- Demonstration and execution of exposure levels
- As a primer for surface substrates (in combination with water)
- Compatibility with Portland cement types
- Increase durability and consistency and durability of concrete against water and chemical solutions and reduce permeability
