MegaZemin Kür<br />

Curing Agent For Fresh Concrete And Surface Hardeners<br />

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION<br />

The product is a polymer emulsion based single component curing agent, which is applied on<br />

fresh concrete, retains the water within the concrete by means of the film layer it forms and<br />

enables the resistance to be enhanced, soundly, prevents fast drying and so prevents contraction<br />

cracks.<br />

AREAS OF USE<br />

MegaZemin Kür is applied to ensure fresh concrete, trowel coating and surface hardeners<br />

to be cured, ideally. The product is applied in indoors and outdoors spaces in order prevent<br />

the fast evaporation of the mixing water, the formation of contraction cracks on the surface<br />

and the dusting through the enhancement of the abrasion resistance. The product is suitable<br />

for use for the curing of vertical and horizontal construction elements, in high rise buildings,<br />

where water curing is challenging, for airport and field concretes, for canal and flume<br />

concretes and in concrete casting in such spaces with low humidity and high air currents.<br />

PRODUCT ADVANTAGES<br />

• Suitable for use in such indoors spaces, where solvent based curing agents cannot be used.<br />

• Helps the concrete to reach the intended resistance level.<br />

• Retains the water within the concrete and so prevents contraction.<br />

• Enhances the abrasion resistance of the surface and so prevents dusting.<br />

• A ready to use product which can be easily applied.<br />

APPLICATION PROCEDURE<br />

Application Surfaces<br />

Indoors and Outdoors Floors;<br />

- Cement based trowel coating<br />

- Fresh concrete surfaces,<br />

- Concrete surface hardener applied surfaces (suitable for use on outdoors floors.)<br />

MegaZemin Kür should be used to ensure protection of the surfaces from such factors as<br />

temperature, humidity and wind and the maintenance of curing.<br />

Surface Preparation<br />

• The fresh concrete should have been completely prepared for application through appropriate<br />

surface finishing.<br />

• The surface should be sound, open-pore and clean.<br />

• The application surface should not be exposed to frost hazard.<br />

• The surface should have been cleansed from exudation water, oil and any loose materials,<br />

surface contaminants and cement grout, and should have reach the adequate strength.<br />

• Due care should be given to prevent the exposure of the product to direct sunlight in hot<br />

weather conditions.<br />

• The product should not be applied on extremely windy weather conditions or on hot<br />

surfaces, which are exposed to direct sunlight; and in the cases, where application is<br />

imperative under such conditions, the environment and the surface should be prepared for<br />

application in advance.<br />

• The product should not be applied in rainy weather conditions, and the application surface<br />

should be preserved from rain for a period of 24 hours.<br />

• Refer to our technical support hotline for recommendation on different surface applications.<br />

(PHONE: 444 4 595)<br />

Surface and Ambient Temperature<br />

The surface and ambient temperature should be between +5°C and +35°C whilst at<br />

application.<br />

Equipment Cleaning<br />

The equipment used should be cleaned with water following the application before the<br />

material dries. The product, the curing of which has been completed, should be cleaned with<br />

solvents.<br />

CONSUMPTION<br />

Recommended consumption amount for application on 1 m 2 surface is 0.15 - 0.25 kg. The<br />

said value may vary, depending on the surface and ambient conditions.<br />

PACKAGING<br />

MegaZemin Kür is delivered in net 25 kg drums and net 150 kg barrels.<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 />

It should not be exposed to direct sunlight.<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 />

Application Methods<br />

• The product should be applied subsequently to the completion of the leveling of fresh<br />

concrete surfaces, to which MegaZemin BYS has been applied. The product should be<br />

applied by low-pressure spraying to form a homogenous and continuous film layer.<br />

Application Recommendations<br />

• Local accumulation should not be allowed during the application.<br />

• The concrete surface should not be opened for walking until MegaZemin Kür completely<br />

dries.<br />

• A secondary coat application is recommended for a more effective and aesthetically<br />

pleasing appearance. The primary coat should have lost its adhesiveness before the secondary<br />

coat application.<br />

• The product is a ready to use product and should not be diluted with water.<br />

• The product should not be applied to such surfaces, which are exposed to risk of freezing<br />

within the next 24 hours, which are frozen or the frost of which is thawing.<br />
