Concrete Densifier / Polish

With all of the advancements within the concrete industry, concrete densifiers stand out and are amazing products with important benefits. Concrete densifiers aren’t only confusing for that

outside of concrete industries but can even cause some confusion for those within the industry also. Today we are covering what a densifier is, how it works, and the benefits of using these products.

What is a Concrete Densifier?

In a nutshell, a concrete densifier may be a chemical hardener that’s most ordinarily applied on top of the concrete slab after placement, and if polishing the slab, it is used during the process of refinement. Regardless of the slab is polished or left unpolished, employing a

densifier is cheap thanks to adding strength, endurance, and longevity to a concrete slab. Concrete densifiers are used as a part of the refinement process of concrete polishing but also are widely used on unfinished concrete slabs. This product works as a pore filler and increases

the surface density of the concrete slab. When applied, the densifier deeply penetrates the concrete slab, creates a reaction, and produces a byproduct that fills every pore.

This outcome hardens the concrete surface while also reducing pitting. It increases the surface durability significantly compared to concrete surfaces that aren’t treated with a densifier.

How does it works

Throughout and through the method of curing, concrete slabs produce a byproduct called free lime (concrete dusting). This product is carbonate, which when it reacts with the concrete densifier

can produce a stronger substance. Because concrete slabs are porous naturally, employing a densifier may be a good way to form them less porous and stronger overall as a finished floor

surface. When the concrete densifier work on the free lime, calcium-silicate-hydrate gel forms. This gel may be a very dense and hard crystal that forms an endless layer. The reaction that’s produced binds the concrete and densifier together, making the slab stronger and more durable

to wear than it had been before treatment. Another additional advantage of treating your floor with a densifier is that it stops the ground from dusting (a continual natural occurrence with concrete over time).

What are the benefits?

Polished concrete is preferable for many buildings, factories, and other facilities. Due to its strength building and resistance to wear, concrete densifiers are a perfect accessory for polished floor surfaces during a sort of setting including stadiums, hospitals, government.

buildings, airports, and factories. Adding this economical step to our refinement process helps increase the finished floor’s resistance to moisture, chemicals, oil, grease, and abrasion. It takes much longer to show wear from pedestrian or vehicle tracks and increases light reflection.
