Sika Antisol-90 is a liquid curing compound for the prevention of premature water loss in concrete. Sika Antisol-90 has an efficiency index of 90 % when tested in accordance with the DoE Specification for Road and Bridge Works, clause 2709/1032.
UsesSika Antisol-90 is applied to fresh concrete surfaces to form a fast drying, thin, flexible and tough impervious membrane which protects the concrete from rapid water evaporation during initial curing stages, thereby assisting towards obtaining maximum strength, durability and helping towards the elimination of shrinkage cracks and surface dusting.
Sika Antisol-90 is particularly useful in large areas of exposed concrete such as:
Highways, runways and taxiways
Aprons and hardstandings
Roof decks
Retaining walls
Pre-stressed beams and piers
Bridge decks, etc
Characteristics & Advantages
Application by hand or power-driven equipment - saves time, labour and money
Effective in all conditions of humidity and temperature
Single application, no further attention is required
The finish and colour of concrete are not affected once the compound has disintegrated under the influence of ultra violet light or abrasion
Sika Antisol-90 provides the following beneficial properties to concrete surfaces:
- Reduces incidence of plastic cracking
- Ensures achievement of desired strengths
- Alleviates other costly methods such as hessian-watering, etc.
- Reduces dusting
- Minimises shrinkage
