- Applicability By Compressive Strength
It is no dilatation, free of shrinkage cracks and no curing after application with minimal range of layer thickness at 1 mm to 2 mm or at 1 /25” to 5 /64”. Applied as a layer, it has no expansion in both the plastic and hardening phases without compensation of water. Layer of KF-F is a water impermeable under the hydraulic pressure at 8 bar and stable to aggressive environment at pH of 1.
CONCRETE HARDNESS PSI TYPICAL APPLICATION
Very hard 10,000 or more Nuclear Plants, Loading decks
Hard 6,000 - 8,000 Bridges, Piers, Chemical facility
Medium 4,000 - 6,000 Roads, Housing projects
Soft 3,000 or less Sidewalks, Patios, Parking lots
- Preparation & Application
- Add 1 part of water into 4 parts of KF-F powder by the volumes and mix for ½ minute. That ratio might be gradually corrected for the different spray equipment on a job site. The consistency of mixed KF-F batch is close to the oil paint.
- Apply KF-F on a concrete or masonry surface as a layer by the roll, spray or brush with thicknesses at 1.5 mm t 2 mm, or .059” to .079” with consumption at 0.85 Kg/m2 to 1.1 Kg/m,2 or .174 LB/ft2 to .226 LB/ft2 respectively.
- Use KF-F at a minimum temperature on the concrete surface not below of 23°F (-5°C).
- Hardening time is at 1.5 to 3 hours in normal conditions.

- After application, do not provide curing procedure and do not use curing compounds.
- Do not spray water on a freshly applied KF-F surface.
- Do not cover fresh KF-F with films or blankets.
- Average of expected results by 3 days:
