Formally known as SikaLatex. SikaLatex MY is a modified styrene butadiene emulsion to be mixed with cement (neat) or cement / sand mortar for improved adhesion and water resistance properties.
Uses
For higher strength floor screeds with less ‘dusting’, improved flexibility and resistance to cracking
For wear resistant floor toppings in water treatment works, sewage systems, etc. together with Sika®-1 System
As an additive to repair mortars for patching and filling
As a bonding agent for rendering, tile fixing and masonry jointing mortars, etc.
As a bonding grout between old and new concrete, as well as in construction joints
Characteristics & Advantages
Increases adhesion, flexural and tensile strength
Improves abrasion resistance (less dusting)
Reduces water permeability
Increases chemical resistance
Non-toxic, non-corrosive and non-flammable
Easy to use
Does not re-emulsify even in high alkaline conditions
