Description

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Jesmonite® AC730 is a rapid setting acrylic polymer modified cement based composite.

It is a shrinkage-compensated material of low permeability and is durable in all conditions of external weathering.

The compound is alkali free and as such is free from the efflorescence associated with ordinary Portland cement based systems.

The product contains a fine decorative aggregate and powder pigments, carefully controlled to give a consistent decorative surface finish after treatment with a proprietary brick cleaner or acid etch.

It is supplied as two components, a water-based acrylic liquid, and a blended Base.

APPLICATION AREAS

Glass reinforced decorative architectural mouldings, and small castings. Glass reinforcements such as Jesmonite Quadaxial Fabric or 13mm Glass Chopped Strands can be utilised for lightweight, high impact panels.  It can also be used to create garden ornaments and statuary, and is suitable for water-features.

KEY ATTRIBUTES

Improved flexural strength and stability

Excellent abrasion resistance and impact strength

High compressive and tensile strength

Rapid curing and high early strength gain

Shrinkage compensated and dimensionally stable

PACKAGING

Liquids are supplied in 1kg, 5kg, 25kg canisters and 1,000kg Bulk IBC’s, Base is supplied in 5kg and

25kg buckets and 1,000kg FIBC’s. ( P.O.A )

STORAGE

As a basic rule liquid containers should be kept well sealed to prevent water evaporation and skin

forming. They should be stored at a constant temperature between 5 – 25oC and used within six

months. Freezing must be avoided. Base should be kept dry and stored at 5 – 25oC.
