Nox-Crete Release Agent #10E

Product Description

RELEASE AGENT #10 E reacts chemically with the alkalies in concrete to form a soapy film which allows trapped air and excess water to escape during vibration, minimizing surface voids and providing a smooth, uniform concrete finish. When used on steel, RELEASE AGENT #10 E reacts with iron present on the form surface to create a film that minimizes rust formation between pours.

Applications

• Ideally suited for use on dense, non-absorptive form surfaces such as steel, aluminum, plastic, fiberglass as well as HDO, PSF and high density melamine plywood forms.
• Can also be used on MDO plywood form surfaces.
• Works in precast and commercial forming operations where forms see daily use or are subject to aggressive stripping schedules.
• Use when architectural concrete surface appearance is a primary objective.
• Use on many rubber and closed cell foam forms and form liners (Urethane, STS & ABS) that cannot tolerate conventional solvent or petroleum based release agents.

Advantages

• Low viscosity, chemically active formulation allows for applications at very light coverage rates, reducing costs.
• Less sensitive to application rate variations than other chemically active release agents.
• Essentially no odor
• Fast drying and non-slip when used on horizontal form surfaces.
• Once product is dry, it has excellent resistance to dew and rain showers and will not re-emulsify.
• Provides a crisp, positive release.
• Ideal for producing Architectural Concrete – no staining and minimal surface voids or bugholes.
• Inherently biodegradable.
• Capable of producing uniformly colored architectural surfaces.
• Minimizes form cleaning and maintenance costs -- forms become self-cleaning with continued use.
• Does not impair the natural bonding characteristics of subsequently applied paint or other concrete surface coatings.
• Green Engineered™ - better for health and the environment.
