Uses

HCRETE SBR-G9 is versatile and suitable for a variety of applications:

• Bonding concrete repair mortars

• Floor toppings and screeds

• Waterproof renders and cementitious slurries

• Bonding agent for slip bricks, ceramic tiles, etc.

Chemical Resistance

Cementitious materials often face chemical challenges. The addition of HCRETE SBR-G9 to cement mortars reduces permeability, providing resistance against aggressive chemicals, acid gases, and water.

Design Criteria

The application parameters for mortars modified with HCRETE SBR-G9 vary depending on the mix design. A minimum applied thickness of 6 mm is recommended to achieve optimal results.

Instructions for Use

Preparation

• Form Extremities: Ensure the extremities of the application area are formed to a depth of at least 10 mm.

• Surface Cleaning: Thoroughly clean the surface, removing contaminants, dust, or unsound material.

• Substrate Priming: Soak the substrate with clean water and apply a slurry primer before mortar application.

Mixing

• Mix Designs: Achieve a wide range of mix designs to suit specific requirements.

• Thorough Mixing: Ensure thorough mixing of HCRETE SBR-G9 mortars to guarantee complete dispersal.

Application

• Compaction: Well-compact HCRETE SBR-G9 mortars onto the primed substrate.

• Recommended Thickness: Adhere to the recommended thicknesses for different locations.

Finishing

Finish the surface using a steel, plastic, or wood float, or employ a damp sponge technique to achieve the desired texture.

Curing

Cure HCRETE SBR-G9 mortars immediately after finishing. Utilize HCRETE Primer for effective curing.

Temperature Considerations

• Low Temperature: In cold conditions (down to 5°C), use warm water (up to 30°C) to accelerate strength development.

• High Temperature: Store materials in the shade and use cool water for mixing in temperatures above 35°C.

Over Coating and Cleaning

• Over Coating: HCRETE SBR-G9 repairs provide excellent protection and can be coated with decorative finishes.

• Cleaning: Promptly clean tools, equipment, and mixers with water after use.

Limitations

• Temperature Limit: Avoid application below 5°C.

• Exposure to Water: Prevent exposure to moving water during application. Heavy rainfall before the final set may cause surface scour.
