How to use lithium polysilicate on concrete?

While use lithium polysilicate on concrete, the temperature is a important factor that need to consider. If it is too hot, we suggest that do not use lithium polysilicate in case of problems. It might begin to evaporate even before it begins to penetrate into concrete. It is therefore recommended to apply lithium silicate chemical hardener at a time when the concrete surface has a reduced temperature with low relative humidity. This condition is advantageous…

How Lithium Polysilicate Solution Reacts with Concrete?

Lithium polysilicate is a chemical hardener applied to the concrete surface. Generally, spray operation is used to apply lithium polysilicate to a newly placed concrete surface. Here we describe how lithium polysilicate solution reacts with concrete? Calcium hydroxide is a byproduct of cement hydration. Lithium polysilicate reacts with calcium hydroxide in concrete and produces Calcium Silicate Hydrate. It settled mostly in pores and canals close to the concrete surface. And its effect increases manifold when…
