Nox-Crete Release Agent #10 250 (non-stock)

Product Description

RELEASE AGENT #10 (RA #10) reacts chemically with the alkalies in concrete to form a soapy film which allows trapped air and excess water to escape during vibration, minimizing surface voids and providing a smooth, uniform concrete finish.  When used on steel, RELEASE AGENT #10 reacts with iron present on the form surface to create a film that minimizes rust formation between pours.

Applications

• Use on dense, non-absorptive form surfaces such as steel, plastic, fiberglass and HDO, PSF and CBF plywood forms.
• Use on semi-absorptive form surfaces such as MDO plywood.
• Ideal for precast and commercial forming operations where forms see daily use or are subject to aggressive stripping schedules and where architectural concrete surface appearance is a primary objective.

Advantages

• Greatly minimizes concrete surface voids (bugholes).
• Provides a crisp, positive release.
• Produces uniformly white architectural surfaces.
• Fast drying.
• Minimizes form cleaning and maintenance costs -- forms become self-cleaning with continued use.
• Low viscosity, chemically active formulation allows application at very high coverage rates, reducing costs.
• Non-staining.
• Hydrotreated napthenic diluents reduce skin and odor irritations common with traditional solvent or petroleum based release agents.
• Does not impair the natural bonding characteristics of subsequently applied paint or other concrete surface coatings.
• Contains a flash rust inhibitor that minimizes rust formation between pours.
• Less sensitive to application rate variations than other chemically active release agents.
• Good cold weather sprayability. ASTM D97 pour point: -30° F (-34° C).
