KALMATRONŽ KF-F

R.F. Patent 2072335

 

DESCRIPTION OF KF-F

Light-gray power; after mixing with water, it becomes a light-gray solid.

USES OF KF-F

  • Isolation against most technical liquids from both positive and negative sides.

  • Superficial strengthening of cracked concrete under mechanical stress.

PREPARATION OF KF-F

  • Add three parts of KF-F to one part water (do not add any more!) and mix to desired consistency.

  • Mix only as much product as can be used within a 45 minute period.

PREPARATION OF SURFACE

  • Wash the surface to clear off all easily removable foreign materials.

  • Above all, the surface must be wet.

APPLICATION

Apply the mixture of KF-F using a spray gun for plastering jobs or with a brush on the wet surface of concrete in a layer of 1mm to 2mm with consumption of 1.16 kg/m˛ (0.24 lb/ft˛).

VARIOUS METHODS OF APPLICATION

  • The most popular method of application is with a spray stucco gun.  This allows KF-F to be applied with colored additives, such as KF-D, which creates a waterproof structure with color stability.

  • For some structures, it is also acceptable to apply KF-F with a brush, roller or even pureeing on horizontal surfaces or into deep cracks.

  • The adjustment of the setting time, density and thickness of the layer is available by changing the water and KF-F ratio.

  • The variable range of water and KF-F ratio is from 0.85:3 to 1.25:3.

CURING

Wet the coated surface with water 12 hours after spraying.

TECHNICAL DATA OF CONCRETE WITH KF-A

Setting time 45 minutes
Final hardening 2 hours
Minimum temperature on site -5°C (23°F)
Porous penetration on depth 5cm (2")
Shrinkage 0.085%
Freeze-thaw resistance up to 75 cycles
Impermeability

10 ATM - 100%

Impermeability with KF-F Spray of 2mm

The water resistance of concrete samples sprayed with KF-F is comparison with control samples.  The test procedure was provided by changing water pressure per 2 ATM with a hydraulic pump very 12 hours without interruption.
