Uses:

Reebaklens RR is used as a rust remover from steel bars prior to encasing in concrete/micro concrete. It can also be used on ohter steel surfaces prior to coating with epoxy systems.

Advantages:

Rapid action Safe with metals (except zinc and galvanized steel), wood, glass, plastic and rubber. No corrosive action. Penetrates oil and grease.

Technical Support:

Fosroc provides a technical advisory service to specifiers, end-users and contractors as well as on-site technical assistance in locations all over the country.

Application instructions:

For rusted metal (iron base) Apply Reebaklens RR with brush for complete wetting of rusted metal surface and allowed to react it for 16-24 hours. After 24 hours, a white layer will appear which will protect further corrosion of metal/steel for about 5-7 days. Before applying protective coating, the surface should be wire brushed and thoroughly cleaned for dust with dry cloth.

Uses

For spraying on freshly cast concrete, or newly exposed concrete surfaces after removal of form work, to form a temporary membrane which will retain sufficient moisture for effective curing to take place. Used for concreting generally but especially useful for large areas of concrete such as pavements, runways and bridge decks also for vertical or sloping surfaces as on towers, chimneys, canal linings, columns and beams, where water curing is difficult or unreliable.

Advantages

Single application Forms moisture barrier for whole of the curing period.

No other curing necessary Eliminates use of water, hessian or sand completely.

Reliable No risk of erratic or poor curing and ensures that cement hydrates efficiently.

Ensures hard-wearing surface Minimises risk of drying shrinkage, cracks and dusty surfaces.

Easy and safe spray application Non-toxic and non flammable.

Standards compliance

Curing efficiency Concure WB curing agent complies with the internationally recognised ASTM C309-90 standard.

Description

Concure WB is a white, low viscosity wax emulsion which incorporates a special alkali reactive emulsion breaking system. This system ensures that the emulsion breaks down to form a non-penetrating continuous film immediately upon contact with a cementitious surface. This impervious film prevents excessive water evaporation which in turn permits more efficient cement hydration, thus reducing shrinkage and increasing durability. Once formed, the membrane will remain on the concrete surface until eventually broken down and eroded by natural weathering. Where it is required to apply a further treatment to such concrete surface, it may be necessary to remove the membrane remaining after curing by wire brushing or other mechanical means. The use of curing membranes on internal floor slabs is generally to be avoided where additional surface finishes are to be applied. Concure WB is however ideal where the concrete surface of a floor slab is to be left as 'finished'.

Equipment

The preferred and generally used equipment is a knapsack sprayer of the type commonly used in horticulture or pest control. The ideal type is a knapsack sprayer with a capacity of between 5 -10 liters fitted with a 2.0m lance and adjustable spray nozzle.

Equipment cleaning Immediately after use the spray equipment should be cleaned out thoroughly with fresh water. If the spray nozzle becomes blocked with wax particles these can easily be removed using white spirit or similar fluid.

Equipment cleaning

Coverage rate

The recommended coverage rate is between 3.5 and 5.0 sq.m / litre ( 0.200 to 0.285 litres/sq.m). Coverage rates out-side this recommended range may be used if necessary and suitable to meet specific requirements. Contact local Fosroc office for advice in such cases.

Precautions

Health & Safety instructions Concure WB is non-toxic. It is advisable to wear goggles when spraying. Inhalation of the spray should similarly be avoided. Should skin contact with the compound occur it shall be washed with clean water and a skin conditioning cream shall be applied.

Product Details:

Fosroc Reebol provides critical barrier between mould and cementitious media facilitating easy separation without stains and reduced blow holes.

Advantages

• Ensures easy release, good fair-faced concrete with reduced blow holes
• Can be used on all types of formwork like wood, aluminium, steel etc.
• Minimises surface blemishes and staining
• Minimises cleaning of shutters before re-use
• Reduces opportunity of damage to formwork, extending usable life.
• Environmental friendly - Non-hazardous, having flash point >160 deg C

Description

• Reebol is specially formulated blend of mineral oils and chemicals having release properties which are superior to those of a 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 striping from concrete and acting as a protection to steel, aluminium and wooden formwork. Reebol is supplied as Golden Yellow coloured liquid ready for direct application and use.

Coverage

• A coverage between 20 to 60m2 per litre is possible depending upon the porosity and texture of mould surface.

Precautions
Health & safety instructions

• Gloves should be worn when handling Reebol. Splashes on the skin should be removed with soap and water. Contact with eyes must be avoided and accidental contamination should be washed thoroughly with plenty of water and medical treatment sought immediately. Good ventilation should be ensured and smoking during use is prohibited.

Application instructions
Preparation of new moulds

• No preparation is necessary, but if extensive reuse of timber mould is envisaged, it is advisable to protect all new surfaces with Reebol. Reebol protects timber from alkali attack which can result in a very short usable life. For used moulds, all traces of cement must be removed together with any surface deposit of previous oils.

Coating

• Reebol can be applied by brush, sponge or conventional mould oil-sprayer. If a mould oil-sprayer is used, care should be taken to ensure that the correct nozzle size is chosen. Stir the contents of the container thoroughly before use. Apply one coat of Reebol thinly and evenly over the entire surface. Only the thinnest coating necessary to achieve effective coverage should be applied. Excess application is uneconomical and may lead to surface dusting.

Product Details:

Uses

• For easy and stain free release of concrete moulds and form work of all types. Particularly where wooden formwork is used and de-moulding or stripping times exceed 24 hours.

Advantages

• Non-staining No cleaning of unsightly oil stains if plastering is not required.
• High quality Produces really fair-faced finish concrete.
• Minimises cleaning Makes cleaning of form faces between pours very easy.
• Concentrate form Reduces storage and transport costs.
• Water-based Only requires water for dilution.
• Aids corrosion inhibition

Description

• Reebol Emulsion Xtra is supplied as a pale amber liquid which turns white when diluted with water to produce a chemical release agent, combining the outstanding release properties of such materials with the economy of a conventional oil. It reacts with the alkali in the concrete to form a thin water repellent skin on the surface of the mould which enables easy stripping from the hardened concrete.

Coverage

• 1 litre of Reebol Emulsion Xtra when diluted with 6 litres of water will cover 80 to 180 m 2 depending upon the nature of the substrate.
• The highest coverage rate must be aimed for - As a guide unsealed timber or plywood - 80 to 115 m 2 / 7 litres of solution.
• Steel or sealed (Reebol Formcote coated) plywood - 120 to 180 m2 / 7 litres of solution.
• If coverage rates are appreciably less than these and satisfactory results are not being achieved, then coverages should be increased as close to the higher figure as possible.

Precautions
Health and safety instructions

• Gloves should be worn when handling Reebol Emulsion Xtra. Splashes on skin should be removed with soap and water. Contact with eyes should be avoided and accidental contamination should be washed with plenty of water and medical treatment sought immediately. If swallowed, obtain immediate aid. Do not induce vomitting. Ensure good ventilation.

Application instructions

Mixing

• First dilute Reebol Emulsion Xtra concentrate in the proportion of 16 with water, using a clean container and stirring thoroughly until evenly mixed. If the solution is not used the same day, it should be stirred again before use and may require very good stirring after 5 days.
• New Moulds No preparation is normally necessary Metal moulds showing signs of rust, must be wire brushed or treated with emery cloth and burnished clean before coating.
• New timber Plywood will give superior results and much extended re-use if first coated with Reebol Formcote.
• Used moulds Must be thoroughly clean and free from old concrete, dirt, cement laitance, old mould oil and other contaminations. Use a strong detergent for removal of oil and grease, Reebaklens for cement and concrete deposits. Application Apply the Reebol Emulsion Xtra 16 water dilution to the face of the formwork by spray, brush or cloth. Only one coat should be applied ( as thinly as possible except on very absorbent new timber where two coats may be necessary for the first application only ) and allow to dry.
• If the formwork is not used for several days, a further coat may be applied.
• Only a very thin film of Reebol Emulsion Xtra should be applied. Excess could lead to surface dusting of the concrete.

Product Details:

Our firm is devotedly betrothed in presenting an extensive series of Corrosion Inhibitor Solution. These are made as per market demand using the advanced techniques. Inhibitors are substances or mixtures that in low concentration and in aggressive environment inhibit, prevent or minimize the corrosion.

Generally the mechanism of the inhibitor is one or more of three that are cited below:

• The inhibitor is chemically adsorbed (chemisorption) on the surface of the metal and forms a protective thin film with inhibitor effect or by combination between inhibitor ions and metallic surface
• The inhibitor leads a formation of a film by oxide protection of the base metal.
• The inhibitor reacts with a potential corrosive component present in aqueous media and the product is a complex.
