Wax Based Concrete Curing Compound
BETOCURE W is a wax based emulsion concrete curing compound. Single component and is ready to apply on freshly poured concrete to prevent rapid evaporation of water. The resultant film allows high curing efficiency to be maintained even in conditions of intense ambient light.
The solvent-free membrane forming wax emulsion retains sufficient moisture in the concrete to ensure full hydration of the cement.
Packaging:
BETOCURE W is packed in 20 liters and 210 liters drums.
Coverage:
5-6 m² per liter, depending on concrete surface condition.

Pre-application
BETOCURE W should be gently stirred immediately before use to ensure even dispersal of the pigment.
Application should shot not begin until concrete is free from surface water and should not commence if bleed water is apparent on the concrete surface.
For horizontal surfaces BETOCURE W should be applied as soon as the initial surface sheen has disappeared from the concrete surface. Any trace of laitance, grease or loose materials should be removed.
It is essential to dampen the concrete with water prior to application
Application
BETOCURE W should be applied as evenly as possible to the freshly place concrete at a rate of 5m²/liter. During unfavorable conditions such as high temperatures or windy seasons, rate of application might be increased.
Application should be back and forth to ensure complete coverage. The emulsion cures to form a clear film which provides a moisture barrier to enable to attain the desired degree of curing efficiency.
Motorized or knapsack spray equipment which produces a fine spray is recommended for use of BETOCURE W.
The time for the deterioration of the membrane is dependent on a number of factors such as film thickness, degree of exposure to weathering and traffic.
Subsequent Finishes
BETOCURE W is compatible to a variety of finishes including:
Cleaning
Equipment and tools used should be cleaned promptly with water.
Recommendations
BETOCURE W does not fall into hazardous classification of current regulation. However, it should not be swallowed or allowed to come into contact with skin or eyes in either spray or bulk form.
Splashes on the skin should be removed with water. In case in contact with eyes, rinse immediately with water and seek medical attention. If swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.
Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and goggles.
