Description
Overview
Rapid Crete Acrylic Admix is a liquid additive for compatible concrete, mortar, stucco, grout and setting-material mixes. It replaces part or all of the mixing water as directed to improve adhesion, internal bond, flexural strength and workability.
Features
- Improves adhesion to suitable smooth surfaces.
- Supports freeze/thaw and crack resistance in the appropriate mix.
- Improves mortar plasticity for placement and shaping.
Specifications
- Part number: 991032
- Container: 1 gallon
- Type: Acrylic liquid admixture
- Dilution: May be diluted 1:1 with water, per manufacturer
- Standard statement: Manufacturer states compliance with ANSI A118.4 requirements
Applications
Add during mixing when the cementitious material’s instructions permit an acrylic admixture. Select dilution and the total liquid requirement for the specific material rather than adding an unrestricted extra gallon to an already proportioned mix.
Selection and Use
- The manufacturer allows 1:1 dilution; this is an admixture-to-water ratio, not an adhesive-to-cement ratio.
- Confirm that the selected mortar or grout permits this additive, particularly when the bag already specifies a proprietary liquid or water-only mixing.
- Follow the mix’s curing and placement requirements; improved crack resistance is not a guarantee that movement or structural cracks will be prevented.
