Description
SikaMix Frostproofer and Plasticiser is an air entraining chloride free liquid admixture for mortar which also acts as an accelerator for work in sub-zero temperatures. Improves workability and freeze/thaw resistance in brick laying mortars and eliminates the need for a separate frostproofer.
Accelerating and plasticising.
Increased frost resistance during setting.
Non-corrosive to embedded metal.
Usage
To accelerate the setting times and act as an air entraining, water reducing admixture. Suitable for:
- Render (internal and external).
- Loadbearing brickwork.
- Block laying.
- Pointing/repointing brickwork.
- Floor screeds.
Advantages
- Accelerating and plasticising.
- Increased frost resistance during setting.
- Non-corrosive to embedded metal.
- Eases tamping down and alignment.
- Improves workability/trowelability even in cold weather.
- Provides resistance to freeze/thaw cycling down to – 8 °C in both wet and dry mortar.
- Reduces bleeding/segregation.
- Replaces lime in mix, hence reduces possibility of lime bloom and efflorescence.
- Reduces shrinkage and cracking.
- Faster finishing times even in cold weather.
