Wax Curing Compound

Product Description

CETEXWCC, Wax CuringCompound, wax emulsion based, white tinted, when applied to freshly placedconcrete, quickly forms a wax membrane to maximize water retention in concrete.This results in better cement hydration and concrete strength. It is waterbased and used directly. On application it gives a white coating on the surface,which protects the surface from heat and helps in proper application.

ADVANTAGES

• Reducessurface shrinkage & crack formation by eliminating moisture loss fromsurface.
• Reducessurface dusting as capillary migration of water to surface is eliminated.
• Reducescost of manpower and supervision cost compared to conventional ponding.
• Eliminatesthe need of damp hessian, sand or plastic for curing or surface protection.
• Rapidfilm formation; enables concrete to hydrate more efficiently.
• Thewax film on the surface decomposes in a few weeks which allows furthertreatment of the surface.  
• Nonflammable, Non toxic, very low VOC, conforms to green building norms.
• Dueto white pigmentation, it reflects the heat and reduces the surfacetemperature.
• Itis economical to use and for large areas may work out cost effective.
