Krete100® is an admixture to ordinary concrete mixes, used for repairing damaged concrete, rock and masonry and as a white topping over asphalt.Only a thin coat is needed: starting at just 8 mm thick, compressive strength is over 50 MPa.
Krete100® is completely liquid and vapour proof and can be applied in heavy traffic areas, such as loading docks, yards, ramps, parking garages, freeways and highways.
- High compressive and tensile strengths, abrasion and corrosion resistance.
- High alkaline and acid resistance, no scaling, dilatation or efflorescence.
- No shrinkage cracks.
- Water reducer, low heat emission.
- No CO2 is emitted.
- No curing and no densifying toppings are needed.
Using the mix design "Patchcrete" produces a compressive strength of 50 MPa at a layer thickness of only 8 mm.
