Quick Setting & Rapid Hardener for Cement/Concrete
RAPIDCARE is a most effective and dependable concrete hardener of an excellent quick-setting and Rapid hardening agent and of a thoroughly satisfactory waterproofing admixture. Besides this unique and remarkable compound offers other advantages as well.
RAPIDCARE has been tested and approved by various Central and State Government laboratories. In addition, numerous laboratory tests and field trials have been carried out by the authorities of various important projects, in order to determine the efficiency of this compound. The results of each test and trial in respect of RAPIDCARE have been uniformly impressive and consistent throughout. As a result, this compound is now being extensively used at various important projects throughout India.
Product Benefits
- Improving Strength and durability especially against heavy loads.
- Long lasting, as the product penetrates the substrate, reduces weathering on vertical surfaces. Prevents fungus growth as the substrate becomes water repellent
Application Area
- Cement sand plastered surface. Building Terrace & Parapet walls. Sun shades of the building
- Doubles the life of concrete structures subject to wear and tear, disintegration, abrasion and erosion
- Increases the ultimate crushing strength of concrete to a considerable extent
- Accelerates to a great extent the setting time of cement, On Ordinary Portland Cement its normal setting time down is taken to a few minutes
- Accelerates the hardening of cement, seven day's hardness can be achieved in 2 to 3 days.
- It is an excellent and dependable waterproofing compound.
- Concreting can be continued at Cold/Freezing temperature
Because of its quick-setting and rapid hardening qualities, RAPIDCARE saves considerable expenses on labour, formwork etc. as well as by speeding up construction work. Besides, RAPIDCARE is of considerable advantage in the manufacture of pre-cast concrete products.
Direction
- Stir the compound thoroughly before use. In order to achieve uniform mixing, the compound should be added to the gauging water used for making concrete mix.
- The mixing proportion recommended for all normal requirements is 1 lit. of RAPIDCARE for every bag of cement. However, if a still quicker setting and hardening is desired, the mixing proportion should be increased to a maximum of 2 lit. of RAPIDCARE per bag of cement.
- While concreting at freezing temperatures, the mixing proportion will have to be increased upto3 lit. of RAPIDCARE for every bag of cement. In cold climate the compound has a tendency to turn solid. If this happens, the drums of RAPIDCARE should be placed in hot water until such time the contents become liquid.
