POLYBIT Polybond AC
Acrylic based bonding agent

Bonding slurry
Wet down absorbent surfaces, such as concrete, brick, stone, ensuring that they are fully saturated but free of surface water. Prepare a bonding slurry of 1 to 2 parts cement to 1 part of Polybond AC mixed to a lump- free creamy consistency. Using a stiff brush, work the bonding slurry well into the damp surface, ensuring that no pinholes are visible. Do not apply bonding slurry at a thickness in excess of 2mm. If a second coat is necessary, it must be applied at right angles to the first coat to ensure complete coverage. the mixed bonding slurry should be applied at 1- 2 kg/m2. For bonding of patch repairs using Polycrete repair mortars apply undiluted at 5 to 6 m²/L.
Polybond AC modified mixes:
Sand: Sand should be washed and well graded. cement: Polybond AC is compatible with all types of opc, sulphate resisting and high alumina cements. Water: The strong plasticizing action of Polybond AC greatly reduces the water cement ratio for any given workability.
Polybond AC: Standard dose is 5-8L per 50 kg of cement used. For more demanding situations, and greater exposure to aggressive environment 15L per 50 kg of cement is recommended. Mixing should be carried out in an efficient concrete mixer. Charge the mixer with required quantity of sand and cement and premix for approximately one minute. Pour the required quantity of Polybond AC and mix for two minutes only to avoid excessive air entrainment. Add the water slowly until the required consistency is achieved. Avoid adding excessive water.
Render to vertical surfaces:
Apply the bonding slurry to the prepared surface and then render immediately with Polybond AC modified mortar. Apply in coats to a maximum thickness of 5mm per coat. Several coats can be applied at intervals of 20-30 minutes. Thicker coating can be applied when suitable form work is used. Finish the surface using wooden float or steel trowel. Screeds and topping Screeds, patches based on Polybond AC modified mix should be placed over the tacky bonding slurry, well compacted and struck off to level. It may me trowelled to the required finish using a steel trowel.
