Description
Feb® Febmix® Plus Mortar Plasticiser – 5L
Feb® Febmix® Plus is a premium, liquid, micro air-entraining plasticiser designed to enhance bricklaying and block-laying mortars. Replacing traditional lime, it ensures consistent mortar performance even when cement and sand sources vary. Its advanced formula supports better workability and improved freeze–thaw resilience.
Features
- Micro air-entraining action reduces water demand and creates a uniform, stable bubble structure.
- Enhanced frost resistance in both fresh and hardened mortar, minimizing cracking and damage.
- Improved workability, longer open time, and reduced segregation and bleed—yielding smoother, more efficient mortar spread.
- Compatible with most Portland cements and sands, including blended PFA mixes.
- Non-corrosive to embedded metals, ensuring long-term structural integrity.
Applications
- Bricklaying and block-laying mortars
- Render mixes where frost protection or extended open time is required
- Outdoor masonry work subject to freeze–thaw cycles
- Mortar repair or pointing where increased ductility and frost resistance are needed
Standards & Compliance
- EN 934‑3: Meets performance specifications for air-entraining mortar admixtures.
- Chloride Content <0.1%: Safe for use with reinforced steel.
- Neutral pH (~7.4–9.4) and stable density (~1.0 g/cm³): Suitable for standard mortar mixes.
Usage Guide
- Add at 125–250 ml per 50 kg cement, adjusting based on desired plasticising or air entrainment level.
- Pre-mix in gauging water or add directly into the mix—ensure thorough blending for optimal performance.
- Stir and thaw if frozen; store at 5–25 °C, shelf life of around 24 months.
