SURFACE TREATMENT

A mould release agent is a chemical substance that creates a moulding surface barrier so that products don’t get stuck to a mould. We are well aware of the need to use mould release agent for concrete and formwork, as it is very crucial to prevent the concrete from sticking to the surface of the mould.
When a proper mould release agent is not used it has been observed that it becomes difficult to remove the mould and even the finish of the concrete is not aesthetically pleasing. To achieve easy removal of mould and a good smooth finish of the concrete surface it is advisable to use an excellent performing mould release agent.
Our SETRELEASE ECO is a wonderful product in itself, it is an eco friendly, biodegradable oil based mould release agent. It has no impact on the mould besides allowing it to detach from the concrete leaving a smooth finish.
It is a specially formulated blend of bio degradable oil based mould release agent, which is superior then conventional mould oil. The chemicals react with the alkali in the concrete to form a thin water repellent skin on the surface of the mould, thereby enabling easy stripping from concrete and protects steel and wooden formwork. SETRELEASE ECO is supplied as ready to use liquid.
Due to the excellent release properties, little or no deposit of cement paste remains on the shutter surface. Minimum cleaning & a further coat of SETRELEASE ECO renders shuttering ready for re-use.
SETRELEASE ECO provides quick, clean and easy stripping of moulds and formwork. It ensures high quality, fair-faced and stain-free concrete surface. Protects aluminium windows and door frames from plaster and mortar splashes.

SALIENT FEATURES:
• ECO friendly
• Ensures good fair-faced concrete
• Can be used on all type of formwork
• Non-staining
• Minimises cleaning of shutters before reuse
• Can be used with steam curing
• Reduces the incidence of air pocket and tendency of surface spalli ng of corners
• Economical

*Applicable on all types of formwork*

APPLICATION:
SETRELEASE ECO can be applied by brush, sponge or conventional mould oil-sprayer. If an oil sprayer is used, care should be taken to choose correct size of
sprayer. Apply one thin and even coat of SETRELEASE ECO over the entire surface. Even a thin coat is enough to achieve effective coverage.
Excess application is uneconomical and may lead to surface dusting. Wire or brush off any excess particles on the surface and apply one coat of SETRELEASE ECO as before. To remove SETRELEASE ECO completely, for recoating mould or shutter surface, use strong industrial detergent together with stiff brushing & then thoroughly rinse with clean water. It is recommended that after application of SETRELEASE ECO concrete pouring to be done within 24 hrs or same day.

COVERAGE:
A coverage between 40 to 60 m²/litre is possible depending upon the porosity and texture of mould surface.

FAIRCURE WX WHITE is a wax based concrete curing compound. It is white coloured curing compound. When it is applied on the concrete surface, it forms a continuous layer of wax over it. The wax layer remains on the surface of concrete, but do not penetrate into surface. It only breaks by natural weathering or anyone remove it by scratching. FAIRCURE WX WHITE is useful where curing cannot be done by water ponding like on vertical or inclined surface.

FAIRCURE WX WHITE can be used on fresh concrete surface and newly exposed concrete surfaces after removal of formwork. It can be used for pavement, runway, bridge deck, towers, chimneys, canal lining, columns and beams.

Benefits of wax based concrete curing compound:

There are various benefits of wax based concrete curing compounds. Some of them are given below:

• By obtaining superior strength, it helps in completing the hydration of the cement.
• It also provides a water repellent film.
• The biggest advantage of this compound is that it can be used with all types of cement.
• As it reduces the breaking of the edges while lifting the elements, therefore, it helps in saving the cost of production.

SALIENT FEATURES of FAIRCURE WX WHITE
• Only single coat required for whole of the curing period
• Reduce water usage
• Ensures perfect curing
• Ensures hard wearing surface
• Easy to use and apply
• Reduce labour cost
• Time saver
• Easy to identify treated surface

APPLICATION PROCEDURE
• Stir well the liquid curing compound before applying.
• Fill the stirred liquid in the high volume low pressure spray.
• Start applying uniform coat of FAIRCURE WX WHITE and keep nozzle of spray 40-50cm from concrete surface. Move the nozzle back and forth to ensure complete and even coverage. The pump pressure should be maintained at a level to produce a fine spray.
• For newly placed concrete, apply FAIRCURE WX WHITE as soon as visible surface moisture is invisible, e.g. typically 1/2 to 2 hours after placing shuttered and precast concrete.
• For demoulded concrete surface, apply FAIRCURE WX WHITE immediately after removing mould/ formwork.

PACKING AND COVERAGE
FAIRCURE WX WHITE is supplied in 1, 5, 10, 50, 100, 200 Ltr. carboys. FAIRCURE WX WHITE has coverage of 5 to 6 m² per Ltr.

Buildings have major environmental impacts over their entire life cycle. Resources such as ground cover, forests, water, and energy are depleted to give way to buildings. A green building depletes the natural resources to the minimum during its construction and operation. The aim of a green building design is to minimize the demand on non-renewable resources, maximize the utilization efficiency of these resources, when in use, and maximize the reuse, recycling, and utilization of renewable resources. It maximizes the use of efficient building materials and construction practices; optimizes the use of on-site sources and sinks by bio-climatic architectural practices; uses minimum energy to power itself; uses efficient equipment to meet its lighting, air-conditioning, and other needs; maximizes the use of renewable sources of energy; uses efficient waste and water management practices; and provides comfortable and hygienic indoor working conditions. In sum, the following aspects of the building design are looked into in an integrated way in a green building.

* Site planning
* Building envelope design
* Building system design ((HVAC) heating ventilation and air conditioning, lighting, electrical, and water heating)
* Integration of renewable energy sources to generate energy onsite.
* Water and waste management
* Selection of ecologically sustainable materials (with high recycled content, rapidly renewable resources with low emission potential, etc.).
* Indoor environmental quality (maintain indoor thermal and visual comfort, and air quality)

DESCRIPTION:
FAIRCURE WC is supplied as a white pigmented, non-staining, non toxic aqueous solution which when applied to fresh concrete surfaces, reacts with free lime and seals the pores, thus reducing the evaporation of water from the mix which assists curing process and increasing durability. Applied surfaces can be easily identified due to white pigment. Only single coat is sufficient for complete curing process eliminating the water curing.

USES:
FAIRCURE WC is a white pigmented concrete curing aid which eliminates water curing and when applied to structures can be identified easily. It helps the curing process by preventing evaporation and helps to attain strength and durability.

specially formulated chemical mould releasing agent

A chemical mould releasing agent prevents certain materials from adhering to each other. Not adding a release agent will cause these materials to bond, which then produces more problems in cleaning up and creating a perfect casting. They provide the critical barrier between a molding surface and the substrate, facilitating separation of the cured part from the mold. Without such a barrier in place, the substrate would become fused to the mold surface, resulting in difficult clean-up and dramatic loss in production efficiency. One such specially formulated chemical mould releasing agent is Fairmate’s SETRELEASE RU PREMIUM.
