KongKrete™ is a premium all acrylic high solids polymer
emulsion made specifically for the GFRC industry. KongKrete™
is a water-based, non-hazardous material utilizing the newest and most advanced
resin technologies.
55 gallon drum is shipped LTL freight. Freight shipping is an estimate only. Liftgate, notification B4 delivery and Residential deliveries are extra. We will contact you if the shipping is lower or greater than online estimate.
Benefits
of using KongKrete™ GFRC acrylic polymer:
55 gallon drum is premium open top HD plastic (not cardboard which can easily be damaged)
Complies with PCI plant certification
specification Appendix L.
Eliminates the need of the 7-day wet cure allowing you to strip
your forms much sooner
Freeze / thaw stable for shipping wet polymer
in winter months.
UV Stable, Low odor
Significant Increase in Flexural & Tensile strength
Improved mix workability with less water
Improves cement hydration
Improved mix adherence to vertical mold surfaces without sag of
mist/face mix
Improved dispersion of color pigment and reduce color variation
in panels
Improved density of mix (decreased permeability)
Reduction of shrinkage or map cracking
Stable in Alkali environments(High pH cement)
Will not re-emulsify when wet as some polymers do
Built in defoamer insures dense concrete and will not foam when
mixed with high shear mixers
KongKrete™
in your mix:
The normal loading of KongKrete™ in a GFRC mix is between 5 to 7% polymer solids to the
weight of cement. The exact amount is
determined by the properties desired in the final product. Generally speaking the higher the amounts of
polymer the more water tight and ductile the finished piece will be. See our concrete recipes page for further information on mix design
Here’s
what others are saying about KongKrete™
“MB
Custom Mouldings, Inc. has worked with and tested many polymers for our GFRC
projects over the years. We are pleased at how well Fishstone’s KongKrete
acrylic polymer is performing and experiencing the best results we have in
years. I would recommend KongKrete to
anyone who is serious about producing the best architectural products they
can.”

Storage
& Shelf Life:
Should
be stored in a closed container, in a dry environment at storage temperatures
between 40°F & 90°F. Keep from
freezing.
With
proper storage conditions the normal shelf life will typically be 9 months if
opened and 12 months of unopened containers.
Other
uses:
Replacement for water in your slurry mix to
minimize shrinkage and cracking
Use in standard wet cast concrete to minimize
curling, increase strength and other benefits
Use
in as a bonding agent for patching or bonding-pad repairs
