Sika Latex, 20kg
Sika Latex is a synthetic rubber emulsion which when added to cement mortar/concrete/grout provides good adhesion and water resistance. It comes in the form of a milky liquid. It is fully soluble in water and is to be added directly to the gauging water of mortar/concrete/cementitious grout.
Sika Latex is a high quality emulsion that substantially increases the qualities of cement mortar/concrete/cementitious grout. The scope of application are as follows:
Rendering and Coatings:
- Bonds rendering and coating layers
- Makes waterproof coating for tanks & pools for either fresh or sea water
- Ensures high wear resistance against erosion
Jointing:
- Long life and watertight masonry joints
Concrete Repair & Adhesive Mortar:
- Repair of spalling even on prestressed or reinforced concrete
Roof Finishing Adhesion and Hardener for Plaster Work:
- Bonding for plaster works by bond-coat
Bonding of Concrete Casts:
- Bonding between successive concrete casts by incorporating Sika Latex into bonding mortar
Tiling:
- Used in bonding mortar for tiles & panellings
Waterproof Rendering & Cement Injection Mix:
- Wet rendering of walls for weather proofing
- Injection into cracks or porous concrete works
Characteristics
Sika Latex improves the following properties:
- Adhesion to most substrates (concrete, stone, brick, ferrous metals, glass, ceramic tiles)
- Improves elasticity, flexibility and tensile strength
- Easy to use, non-toxic & plasticising mortar
- Inhibits cracking, improves surface hardening, limits wear and dust production
- Makes the mortar waterproof and reduces susceptability to acids and greases
- Mortar with Sika Latex shows extremely good bonding to bases like concrete,stone, brick, etc.
- Reduces viscosity of cement injection grout and improves bond of cured injected materials with substrates
