Lithium Silicate Concrete Densifiers

Normally when calcium hydroxide comes to the surface of fresh concrete it reacts with atmospheric carbon dioxide producing carbonation calcium carbonate.

Lithium silicate concrete densifiers.

That can be at the 200 or 400 grit resin level. To harden concrete this penetrating treatment reacts chemically with the free lime in concrete to produce calcium silicate hydrate within the concrete pores making the concrete stronger and more durable. Cmw 8000 moisture vapor barrier is a clear colorless spray applied penetrating lithium potassium silicate blended system designed to stop concrete floor coatings and floor coverings from de bonding due to hydrostatic vapor pressure coming up through a below grade concrete slab on grade slab and elevated deck slabs. A pump up sprayer is used to apply a lithium silicate densifier to a newly poured concrete floor.

Generally you should apply ls lithium silicate densifier during the honing phase of concrete polishing. The reaction is greater when the concrete humidity is high and when bleeding is prolonged. Surecrete s ld1800 concrete lithium densifier a liquid concrete hardener provides a clean safe economical stand alone finished concrete floor. Most commonly used on warehouse floors in conjunction with a floor machine to polish and add a shine.
