SILRES BS 8083 US

SILRES® BS 8083 US is a stable, VOC compliant, 60% active silicone emulsion for reducing water uptake and mitigating the effect of cement pac set in silos and bagged material in moisture prone climates. SILRES® BS 8083 US is found to be particularly effective in applications that require water uptake prevention at very low addition levels. Cements treated with SILRES® BS 8083 US are water-repellent and thus improving shelf-life, especially in humid environments.


Properties

  • Excellent water repellency: reduced agglomerate caking in silos and bagged cement in humid environments
  • Low VOC emissions during curing
  • Minimizes darkening effects, maintaining the anticipated appearance
  • Lengthens substrate life, reducing maintenance costs

• High Alumina Cements

• White Cements

• Colored Cements

• PLC

• PPC

• OPC

Use of SILRES® BS 8083 US as a cement processing aid used in the clinker grinding mill can be diluted in the mix water, added simultaneously with the mix water. The recommended addition range is 0.03-1.0% depending on cement type and desired level of hydrophobicity.

- We recommend testing compatibility in a pilot mill prior to full production.

Packaging
