FEBMIX DH

Powder mortar plasticiser, forms air-bubble pores in concrete

Desription of product 
FEBMIX DH is a powder mortar plasticiser for use as an alternative to lime or as a supplement to lime. Matches BS 4887.

Applications

For use as an admixture for mortars to improve their workability; will entrain up to 20% air bubbles into mortars in ordered structure optimising mixture ratio both for brick laying and plastering.

FEBMIX DH improves frost resistance in both freshly laid and hardened mortars; also enchances long-term durability of cement-sand and cement-sand-lime mortars and improves mortar workability (reference BS 5628 UK).

Features and benefits

• Economical:
  – reduced labour costs,
  – redused wastage,
  – more accurate ratio of mixture.
• Helps reduce efflorescence.
• Reduced bleed and segregation in the mix.
• Improved bond.
• Reduced shrinkage when hardened.

Technical data/typical properties

FEBMIX DH entrains microscopic air bubbles into mortars in a controlled manner as specified in BS 4887 (UK).

Mixtures with entrained air produce better workability, whereas amount of mixed water is reduced. FEBMIX DH also improves durability cold applied – both fresh and dry and hardened mortars as microscopic air bubbles provide space for water expansion due to freezing.
