Anti-efflorescence Additive for Cement-based Mortar Systems
By Masonry
Elotex has introduced ELOTEX ERA100, a re-dispersible powder additive designed to eliminate primary efflorescence in stuccos, tile grouts, skim coats, cement powder paints and other cement-based mortar systems.
A highly active, resin-based anti-efflorescence compound, ELOTEX ERA100 exhibits good mixing properties, is compatible with other additives, and has no detrimental effects on working properties. When cured, ELOTEX ERA100 eliminates or drastically reduces the occurrence of primary efflorescence and increases water repellency.
