FlexBond
Latex-based liquid admixture
WHAT IS FLEXBOND?
FlexBond replaces some or all of the water in cement mixes to improve bond, waterproofing, flexural, tensile and abrasive strengths, adhesion, thin film hardness, weak acid resistance, adhesion to asphalt and drying shrinkage. Can also be used to waterproof water-containing structures. Used in conjunction with Cemcrete’s Polypropylene Membrane for cracks and joints in structures. Improves the adhesion of slush-coats for re-plastering pools, patching, repairing or application of screeds. Improves adhesion and waterproofing qualities of Cemcrete Tile Adhesive, Tile Grout, and Self-Levelling Floor Screed. Used as an additive to PoolCrete to promote colour enhancement.
Benefits
- Compatible with Portland cement, High Alumina cement, lime and sand
- Exceptional adhesion in cement mixes
