Adomast Adolease Chemical Release Agent – 5 Litre

Adomast Adolease 5 litre general-purpose mould release oil.

Adomast Adolease 5 litre is a chemical release agent designed for general site use to achieve easy formwork release. It is a blend of reactive oils in a partially evaporative rapid drying hydrocarbon carrier. The carrier evaporates to form a barrier release coating on the form face, containing the reactive materials that subsequently combine with alkalis in the concrete to form a soap based release layer at the interface of the formwork barrier coating and the concrete. This double action not only facilitates easy formwork release and first class concrete finish but also maintains a degree of formwork cleanliness beyond that generally obtained by other release agents.

This variant is supplied as a 5 litre unit.

Advantages:

• Double action provides physical barrier and chemical release properties.
• Facilitates maximum re-usage of all types of formwork.
• Provides uniform stain-free concrete surfaces.
• Minimises incidence of surface air voids.
• Will not impair the bond of any subsequent treatments to concrete.
• Concrete deposits on forms virtually eliminated.
• Dries rapidly on forms to provide cleaner and safer working surfaces.
• Will not be removed by rain showers or light foot traffic.
• Inhibits rust formation on steel forms.
• Light spray mist coat application provides extremely economic usage.
• Suitable for use on all types of formwork in all climatic conditions.
• Minimises discoloration of concrete surface

Application:

Apply by spray, brush or swab prior to each concrete pour, and as near to time of placement of concrete as practical conditions permit.

Timber and other porous forms which have not been treated with Adoseal or other suitable sealers should initially be treated with a double coat of Adolease – the first applied heavily and allowed to stand for maximum absorption before the second is applied in normal manner.

On vertical forms any excess material accumulating at the bottom of the form should be removed.
