LATEX SBR
LATEX SBR is a high-performance, water-based synthetic rubber emulsion designed for use in a wide range of industrial and construction applications. It offers excellent mechanical stability, superior bonding characteristics, and enhanced resistance to water, alkalis, and abrasion. SBR Latex is commonly used as a cement modifier, bonding agent, and waterproofing additive, providing improved flexibility, tensile strength, and durability in cementitious systems.
Features and Advantages:
• Improved Workability: Allows for lower water-to-cement ratios without compromising workability, enhancing strength and durability.
• Waterproofing Capability: Enhances the water resistance of cement-based mixes, reducing permeability and moisture ingress.
• Salt Resistance: Improves durability by reducing salt penetration and efflorescence.
• Chemical Resistance: Enhances resistance to a variety of chemicals, making concrete more durable in aggressive environments.
• Enhanced Toughness and Flexibility: Increases resistance to cracking by improving elasticity and impact strength.
• Excellent Adhesion: Promotes strong bonding to a wide range of substrates such as concrete, stone, and brick.
• Grout Modification: Lowers viscosity of cementitious injection grouts, improving penetration and ensuring superior bond with existing materials.
• Dilution Flexibility: Can be diluted with water at ratios of up to 1:6, depending on the application requirements.
Recommended Use:
LATEX SBR can be used as a bonding agent, waterproof coating, and site-mix mortar admixture across a wide range of applications, including:
• Cementitious Waterproofing Systems
• Repair Mortars and Patching Compounds
• Bonding Slurries as a bonding agent between old and new concrete surfaces.
• Tile Adhesives and Grouts – Increases flexibility, adhesion, and resistance to moisture.
• Screeds and Floor Toppings – Enhances mechanical properties and reduces surface dusting.
• Injection Grouts – Reduces viscosity and increases the bond of cured material with surrounding substrates.
• Plaster and Renders – Improves workability, adhesion, and resistance to cracking.
