• reduces shrinkage percentage

• reduces cracking

• improves heat resistance

Water Resistant: Yes, moisture is hindered from moving between particles.

Usage

  • Can be added to plaster, cement, and concrete mixes by partially replacing the water fraction.

  • When grouting it can completely replace the water fraction in the mix, to render grout more water-resistant.
