It improves the water resistance of cement mixtures by forming a reinforcing polymer that increases long-term durability and flexibility of the mix on renderings and floor screeds. Polymer Emulsions of this type have been used extensively over the last 20 years by the building industry as an admixture for cement and concrete applications, including repair and renovation, surfacing of floors and bonding generally. It contains anti-foam to control the density of cementitious mixes and is also freeze thaw stable, with improved frost resistance. It offers greatly improved adhesion to a wide range of substrates including dense concrete, steel, tiles etc.
This guide provides essential information for users of Everbuild SBR Bond, a water-resistant bonding agent and admixture. Ideal for those working with cement mixtures in humid or damp environments, SBR Bond enhances water resistance and durability. Note that while it improves adhesion, proper surface preparation is still crucial for optimal results.
