Usage

Sika® 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
 

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

Packaging

  • 20 L pail
  • 200 L drum

Sika® Antisol®-90 is applied at a rate of between 5.0–5.5 m² per litre, depending on wind, humidity and temperature.
Application steps

APPLICATION

Sika® Antisol®-90 is supplied ready to use and should not be diluted with any forms of solvent. Stir well before use. Sika® Antisol®-90 is applied in a thin even coat, using spray equipment, onto the fresh concrete immediately after the free surface water has evaporated. After application of Antisol®-90, the area must be protected from rain for at least 3 hours.

Drying time is ~30 minutes (at +30 °C to +35 °C)
