Zahabiya SBR 1648 Latex Emulsion: Enhancing Concrete and Mortar Performance

Overview

Zahabiya Latex Emulsion : SBR-1648 is a high-performance bonding agent, formulated with styrene-butadiene rubber latex. This versatile, low-viscosity product is ideal for the construction industry. It is compatible with all types of cement and is used in bonding old to new concrete, as well as enhancing repair mortars, industrial floors, and waterproof screeds.

Key Features & Benefits

Improved Adhesion
This product enhances adhesion to various substrates, including aged concrete, ensuring stronger and more durable bonds.

Corrosion Protection
SBR 1648 provides effective protection for steel reinforcements, preventing corrosion and enhancing the longevity of concrete structures.

Reduced Shrinkage and Thermal Stresses
It minimizes thermal stresses and shrinkage cracks, making the structure more resilient to temperature changes.

Improved Permeability Resistance
The emulsion reduces the permeability of gases, liquids, chloride, and sulphate ions, safeguarding structures from water and chemical damage.

Workability Enhancement
SBR 1648 improves the flow and workability of concrete and mortar, helping to reduce the water-to-cement ratio and increasing strength.

Early Strength Development
It accelerates early strength gain, allowing faster project completion and reducing delays in construction.

Flexibility and Abrasion Resistance
SBR 1648 increases the flexibility of concrete and provides better abrasion resistance, making it more durable.

Chemical Resistance
The product shows excellent resistance to mild acids, alkali, carbonation, and de-icing salts, which helps protect structures in harsh environments.

Freeze-Thaw Resistance
SBR 1648 also offers resistance to freeze-thaw cycles, which is especially beneficial in cold climates.

Applications

• Bonding Old to New Concrete: Ideal for ensuring strong adhesion between old and new concrete surfaces.
• Repair Mortars: Enhances repair mortar performance for damaged surfaces.
• Industrial Floors: Creates high-strength, durable floors that resist chemicals and wear.
• Waterproof Screeds: Provides added waterproofing and resistance to chemical attack in screeds.

Conclusion

Zahabiya Latex Emulsion : SBR-1648 is a powerful latex emulsion that improves adhesion, durability, and chemical resistance. It’s an ideal admixture for a wide range of construction projects, particularly in repair, bonding, and industrial applications.
