MegaAntiFreeze 10<br />
Anti-Freeze Mortar And Concrete Additive For<br />
Cold Weather Conditions<br />
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION<br />
An anti-freeze liquid concrete and mortar additive without chloride content that enhances<br />
the applicability in cold weather conditions of the cement mixes, to which it is added.<br />
AREAS OF USE<br />
MegaAntiFreeze 10 is suitable for use as anti-freeze for all cement mortars and concrete in<br />
cases, where frost is expected, in constantly cold weather conditions, in such conditions,<br />
where mild frost is at issue throughout the day, in such cases, where sudden temperature<br />
drops are likely.<br />
PRODUCT ADVANTAGES<br />
• Enhances the resistance of mortar and concrete against frost.<br />
• Improves the early strength of concrete or mortar in cold weather condition or against the<br />
impact of frost.<br />
• Free from chloride, and does not harm the concrete or the reinforcement.<br />
• Shortens the mold removal and workmanship time in cold weather conditions.<br />

APPLICATION PROCEDURE<br />
Application Surfaces<br />
MegaAntiFreeze 10 should be added to the water used for mixing the concrete or mortar.<br />
Mixing Period<br />
The appropriate mixing period applicable for the mortar or the concrete mixed should be<br />
taken into consideration.<br />
Application Equipment<br />
The appropriate mixing equipment for the product to be applied should be used.<br />
Equipment Cleaning<br />
The appropriate equipment cleaning for the product to be applied should be performed.<br />
TECHNICAL PROPERTIES<br />
Appearance/Color: Liquid, light yellow<br />
Density: 1.12 ± 0.02 gr/cm 3<br />

CONSUMPTION<br />
The product should be used in such mass that is 1% equal to the weight of the cement<br />
content within the mortar. (The consumption amount may range between 1 % and 3 %<br />
depending on the ambient conditions and the structure of the materials within the mixture.)<br />

MegaAntiFreeze 10 is delivered in net 30 kg plastic drums.<br />
SHELF LIFE<br />
The shelf life of the product is 12 months when stored within non-tampered original<br />
packaging in dry (maximum relative humidity 60 %) and cool (ambient temperature between<br />
+5°C and +25°C) environment.<br />
STORAGE CONDITIONS<br />
The product should be stored within non-tampered original packaging in dry (maximum relative<br />
humidity 60 %) and cool (ambient temperature between +5°C and +25°C) environment.<br />
Store in a cool and dry environment.<br />
The package of the product should not be allowed to be exposed to frost or severe weather<br />
conditions.<br />
The container of the product should be closed firmly when not used.<br />
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS<br />
Please refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) as appropriate for easy and safe application.<br />
Surface Preparation<br />
The product does not require any surface preparation.<br />
Application Methods<br />
• MegaAntiFreeze 10 should be added along with the mixing water or subsequent to the<br />
mixing.<br />
• The Product should be added to the mixing water in such mass that weighs equal to 1% of<br />
the cement's weight. When added directly to the concrete, the mixing time should be<br />
elongated for 2 to 3 minutes.<br />
Application Recommendations<br />
• Any snow, ice and frost should be completely removed from the zone, where the concrete<br />
or the mortar is to be placed.<br />
• The mixing instruction for the product should be followed. The product should not be<br />
added directly to the cement.<br />
• The compounds within the concrete or the mortar should be preserved from the impacts of<br />
frost.<br />
• Due care should be taken to ensure that the difference between the temperature of<br />
surfaces, to which the concrete or the mortar is to contact, and the temperature of the<br />
mortar applied is not excessively high. The temperature of the concrete or the mortar should<br />
be increased by heating the application zone in cases, where necessary.<br />
• Refer to our technical support hotline for recommendation on different surface applications.<br />
