Technical Data Sheet

USES

CEM241-F is designed for the durable finish, pinhole filling and re-profiling of in-situ and pre-cast concrete in civil engineering structures such as:

 

  • Facades, columns and beams
  • Bridges, towers and tunnels
  • Plastered surfaces.

 

CEM241-F prevents damages from water penetration to concrete, acid rain, and freeze-thaw cycles.

ADVANTAGES

  • Moderate flexibility to fill cracks in the substrate.
  • Protective and chemical resistance floor topping.
  • Water resistance topping and low permeability.

Coverage: 50 Lb (22.68 kg) bag covers approximately 4.88 m² area at 3 mm thickness.

APPLICATION

Mixing: mixing ratio is 1.92 Gallons (7.26 Liters) of clean Potable water to 50 Lb (22.68 kg) CEM 241-F Bag.

 

For a better consistency, CEM241-F should be mixed by a mechanical mixer. In case of hand mixing do not mix quantities greater than 3 kg at one time. For mechanical mixing, slow speed mini mixer (approximately 400 rpm) or drill fitted with paddle can be utilized.

 

Pour approximately 1/2 of the measured water needed into the mixer then add CEM241-F slowly while mixing. After 3-4 minutes add the remaining water and mix until the mixture has the required lump free consistency.

 

Limitations: Surface and application temperature should be more than 41°F (5°C). Apply only to thoroughly clean, sound substrate. Surface should be saturated with water prior to the application.

 

Curing: In hot weather conditions, the finished coat of CEM241-F should be cured by spraying water after 8 hours of application for 3 days.

 

Cleaning: Tools, equipment, etc. can be cleaned immediately using clean water.

STORAGE

CEM241-F has a shelf life of minimum 12 months when stored in cool and dry conditions in unopened bags. Don’t store in direct sunlight.
