Synthetic-rubber latex for cement mixes
Planicrete Latex is a water dispersion of a special synthetic elastomer, totally resistant to alkaline saponification. It is a fluid, white latex which, when mixed with aggregates and Portland cement, improves their plasticity, water retention capacity and trowellability in general. After setting and final curing, cement mixes modified with Planicrete Latex have a stronger bond to all surfaces, have better resistance to flexure and abrasion, are more impermeable and become resistant to freeze-thaw cycles. They are also more flexible and have better chemical resistance to diluted acids and alkalis, salt solutions, and oils. Planicrete Latex is complies with JC/T 901 Type I standard.
