Summer concrete pouring: evaporation suppression / hardening delay [E-CON] *Sample available
This is a placement aid that prevents moisture evaporation due to heat, sunlight, wind, and low humidity during the pouring of floor concrete, creating a high-quality concrete surface with minimal cracking.
During the summer, pouring fresh concrete is challenging because the concrete dries quickly, making it difficult to keep up with the finishing. Additionally, concrete poured in the summer tends to have weak strength and many cracks due to rapid moisture evaporation, which is a concern. L&M E-CON is a product that helps with the finishing work of concrete by simply diluting and spraying it, providing moisture evaporation suppression and curing delay effects. The pink liquid makes it easy to see where it has been applied, reducing the likelihood of uneven finishing. ◆ Features and Benefits of L&M E-CON 1. Reduces shrinkage cracks during curing 2. Reduces evaporation by up to 80% (80% against wind, 40% against sunlight) 3. Minimizes surface crust formation 4. Improves durability through evaporation suppression 5. Dilutable type: convenient for handling and transportation due to its concentrated form 6. Enhances the workability of mechanical trowels Effective in reducing trowel marks and improving finishing 7. Easy to work with even in "hard" concrete with low slump 8. Applicable at any timing from wood trowel to metal trowel finishing 9. Leaves no residue, with no impact on floor finishing materials The finishing quality of concrete floors treated with Seal Hard is improved! Free samples are currently available!
basic information
Product Name: L&M E-CON Manufacturer: LATICRETE International, Inc. (Connecticut, USA) Packaging: 5-gallon (approximately 18.9L) pail / 2L bottle (Japan only) / 500ml bottle (Japan only) Usage Instructions: Dilute 10 times and spray during concrete placement. Aim to cover 5-10m² per 1L of diluted solution. Spray to avoid pooling, and remove any pooling that occurs. It is effective in improving concrete quality, reducing plastic cracking (initial drying shrinkage cracks), suppressing trowel marks, and minimizing color variations at joints. Excellent compatibility with SealHard! When used during concrete placement in logistics and commercial facilities with SealHard finishes, the appearance of the concrete after SealHard application will be beautifully finished. We are currently offering free samples! To request a sample, please specify "E-CON Sample Request" in the inquiry form and send it.

Applications/Examples of results
Please use this in the following cases to improve the quality of concrete and reduce initial cracking: - Concrete pouring in summer - Concrete pouring in direct sunlight without a roof - Concrete pouring in exposed areas without walls - Concrete pouring in dry, low-humidity conditions In particular, we recommend using it when pouring concrete floors that are planned to have a seal hard finish. It helps to suppress moisture evaporation from the concrete during pouring, prevents the porosity of the concrete, and enhances the finish quality after seal hard treatment.
