Additional information

Composition

Product based on cement Tx i.active® TECNO BIANCO 42,5R de FYM-Heidelbergcement Group, selected aggregates and additives.

Features and applications

  • It has a self-cleaning effect, breaking down biological dirt that adheres to the surface of the mortar and maintaining the initial aesthetic characteristics.
  • Reduces the concentration of harmful gases from urban and industrial pollution by breaking these down into harmless gases creating healthier environments with lower levels of pollution.
  • Acts on organic and inorganic pollutants such as NOx, SOx, O3, NH3, PM, benzene, VOC, etc.
  • There is no consumption of the photocatalyzers so the effect lasts for the useful life of the façade.
  • For durable white finishes that maintain the initial characteristics.
  • Indoors and outdoors application. 
  • Waterproof cladding.
  • Permeable to water vapour, allowing the substrate to breathe.
  • Excellent adherence and plasticity.
  • For plastering on rough cast or applying in two coats.
  • Up to 1cm thickness. Non slip.
  • Smooth or sponge floated finish.

Substrates

  • Conventional cement and brickwork based substrates.
  • Substrates must be resistant, stable, sound and clean, free of dust, demolding agents, organic products, etc.
  • In case of hot or windy weather conditions or when applying over absorbent substrates, it is advisable to wet the substrate and wait till the thin layer of water disappears.
  • With low-porosity substrates, apply a priming coat (IMPLAFIX) or improve roughness by mechanical means.
  • Do not apply on gypsum or on paint.

 

Instructions for use

MECHANICAL APPLICATION:

  • Fix the optimum proportion water/mortar according to the chosen pump (section and hose length) and external weather conditions. Start with 17% proportion and modify it gradually until you achieve the appropriate consistency.
  • It is important to maintain stable the variables affecting the features of the applied mortar (distance to the wall, angle of application and water proportion), taking into account the application's  mimimun thickness.


MANUAL APPLICATION:

  • Add water and mix by hand or mechanically until it takes on an even and workable consistency.
  • Spread the mixed product over the substrate with the use of a trowel.Thickness should be between 0.5cm – 1cm to ensure effective waterproofing, and to avoid premature dehydration of the mortar.
  • Let stand as long as necessary and then float finish.

Cautions and recommendations

  • The photocatalytic characteristics of self-cleaning and pollution neutralisation remain in the mortar provided that surfaces are not covered over.
  • The effectiveness of the photocatalytic processes is directly affected by the degree to which the walls built are exposed to light.  
  • Do not apply below 5ºC nor above 30ºC.
  • Do not apply when there is a risk of frost, rain, strong wind or direct sunlight.
  • For a thickness of over 1 cm, it is advisable to apply the product in two coats.
  • In extreme weather conditions (strong winds or high temperatures) it is necessary to water the product with light sprinklers the day after applying it.
