Greeno Cure Guard-R is a liquid membrane-forming compound developed for the curing of concrete. This formulation, ready-to-use and pigmented in white, is a blend of specially crafted acrylic polymer-based synthetic resin, meeting ASTM C 309-86, TYPE-II standards.

Conventional curing techniques such as continuous water spraying or ponding can be cumbersome and costly. Evaporation of water from concrete can result in issues like capillary pores, diminished compressive strengths, surface chipping, and crack formation. Greeno Cure Guard-R creates a temporary membrane on freshly cast or exposed concrete surfaces post-formwork removal, preserving adequate moisture within the concrete for efficient curing. This aids in minimizing drying shrinkage, cracks, and dust formation on surfaces.

USAGE

Greeno Cure Guard-R finds applications in:

• Forming a temporary membrane on freshly cast or newly exposed concrete surfaces to facilitate effective curing.

• Large concrete areas like pavements, runways, bridge decks, and industrial floors.

• Vertical or sloping surfaces such as chimneys, towers, silos, canal lining, columns, and beams where water curing may be impractical or unreliable.

FEATURES

• Single Coat Application: Forms a moisture barrier throughout the curing process, obviating the need for alternative curing methods.

• Efficient Hydration: Ensures efficient cement hydration without the risk of erratic or inadequate curing.

• Surface Protection: Shields concrete from drying shrinkage, solar radiation-induced surface burning, and adverse atmospheric conditions.

• Non-Toxic and Non-Flammable: Safe for use with no health hazards.

• White Pigmentation: Reduces surface heating by direct sunlight and ensures uniform application.

• User-Friendly Application: Can be applied easily with low-pressure sprayers or rollers.

• Eco-Friendly and Economical: Offers consistent quality and environmentally friendly formulation.

SHELF LIFE

12 months if unopened and stored properly.

STORAGE

Store Greeno Cure Guard-R in a cool, dry place between 5⁰C to 40⁰C in sealed condition, away from direct sunlight.

PACKAGING

Available in 20 Ltr & 200 Ltr plastic buckets/barrels.

Greeno Cure Guard-W is a liquid membrane-forming compound formulated for the curing of concrete. This ready-to-use solution, consisting of specially blended synthetic waxes, complies with ASTM C 309-86 standards.

Conventional curing methods such as continuous water spraying or ponding can be inconvenient and costly. Evaporation of water from concrete can lead to issues like capillary pores, diminished compressive strengths, surface chipping, and crack development. Greeno Cure Guard-W creates a temporary membrane on freshly cast or exposed concrete surfaces post-formwork removal, providing sufficient moisture for effective curing. This helps minimize drying shrinkage, cracks, and dusty surfaces.

USAGE

Greeno Cure Guard-W is suitable for:

• Forming a temporary membrane on freshly cast or newly exposed concrete surfaces to facilitate effective curing.

• Large concrete areas like pavements, runways, bridge decks, and industrial floors.

• Vertical or sloping surfaces such as chimneys, towers, silos, canal lining, columns, and beams where water curing may be impractical or unreliable.

FEATURES

• Single Coat Application: Forms a moisture barrier for the entire curing period, eliminating the need for other curing methods.

• Efficient Hydration: Ensures efficient cement hydration without the risk of erratic or inadequate curing.

• Surface Protection: Shields concrete from drying shrinkage, surface cracking, and dust formation.

• Non-Toxic and Non-Flammable: Safe for use with no health hazards.

• Eco-Friendly: Contributes to environmental sustainability.

• Uniform Application: Ensures consistent curing with uniform coverage.

• Easy and Safe Handling: User-friendly application and safe handling procedures.

TECHNICAL DATA

• Appearance: Milky White Color Liquid

• Specific Gravity: 1.00 ± 0.02

• Appearance of Dry Film: Translucent

• Water Loss per ASTM C309-1986: 0.40 kg/m² (Maximum limit as per ASTM C309-86 is 0.55 kg/m².)

• Drying Time at 30˚C: 90 minutes

• Coverage: 4-6 m² per liter

• Shelf Life: 12 months

METHOD OF APPLICATION

Apply Greeno Cure Guard-W following the final finishing operation and once the water sheen disappears from the concrete surface. Avoid application on surfaces with standing water. For partially dried surfaces, fog down before application.

HANDLING
