CHEMISTIK
Traditionally, concrete is cured by moist curing. But, this method is sometimes not practicable due to several constraints, eg. acute shortage of water in desert regions, vertical or sloping surfaces,large and massive concreting surface like darns, canals etc. It is very imperative that hydration of water of freshly laid concrete must not be allowed to evaporate; otherwise, the following disastrous results may occur in concrete due to inadequate curing and strength. * Cracks due to shrinkage. The above defects are highly aggravated in regions of high ambient temperature, low humidity, high wind velocity and intense exposure to sunlight. In such a hostile, natural environment the judicious use of Concrete Curing Compound is absolutely essential though it may appear uneconomical on paper at a cursory glance.. ADVANTAGES: * When Concrete Curing
Compound is sprayed on to freshly placed concrete, it forms an impermeable
membrane on the surface which prevents the hydrated water within the mass
of concrete from premature evaporation. It protects the concrete from
exposure to strong solar radiation. APPLICATIONS: Irrigation canals, dams, highway, runways, roofs,cooling towers, pre-cast pipes, slabs, blocks, sloping structures. In fact, all vertical or sloping cement surfaces where moist curing becomes difficult. PACKING: Available in 5, 20, 200 litres.
