Technical Data Sheet
PURCOLOR-6000-P
Art.-No. 4 01423
Colour intensifier / efflorescence reducer / plasticizer
For the production of coloured garden and landscaping structures, such as e.g. • Paving blocks • Palisades • Plant rings • Kerbstones and edging stones • Pathways and slabs for terraces and other concrete of consistency classes F1 and F2 Properties: Due to its hydrophobic properties, PURCOLOR-6000-P reduces the capillary absorption of the core concrete and facing concrete and therefore considerably decreases efflorescence. The active components of PURCOLOR-6000-P additionally increase the compactness of the concrete. Due to the increased formation of cement slurry at the surface a good closed edge is generated and consequently a homogenous appearance to the concrete. Technical Data: Raw material basis: mixture of fatty acids Colour: white Consistency: liquid Density: 1.00 g/cm3 Application temperature: from +5° C Storage: protect from frost and contamination Shelf life: 12 months at +20° C in the original container Packaging: 1000 kg container 210 kg drum 25 kg keg Water hazard class: WGK 1 (self classification)
Dosage (based on cement): Recommended dosage: 0.5 – 1.8% by weight. The required dosage quantity depends on the concrete recipe and the reactivity of the cement. It is to be determined following preliminary tests. Product application: It is preferable to add PURCOLOR-6000-P to the finished mix. Addition to the gauging water is also possible after testing. Adjustment to individual mixing circumstances is required on each occasion. Specific advice: • A performance test, in accordance with valid standards and guidelines, is always necessary before using in concrete. • PURCOLOR-6000-P has a plasticizing effect. This must be taken into consideration when preparing the concrete mix. • PURCOLOR-6000-P has a strong efflorescence reducing effect. • PURCOLOR-6000-P should not be used in concrete production requiring external storage below 12° C after 24 hours. Its function may be reduced. In general do not store green concrete (especially coloured concrete or concrete goods) externally below 10° C for at least 48 hours. This will additionally facilitate the reduction in efflorescence.
