Key Features

• Hydrostatic pressure resistance
• Superior alkali and efflorescence resistance
• Enhanced water resistance
• Strong concrete adhesion
• Low odor

Concrete is widely used in construction, but fresh concrete often doesn't fully cure before painting, leading to issues due to its aggressive nature. Portland cement becomes highly alkaline (pH 13-14) when mixed with water, causing alkali burn and discoloration. Synthomer's PLIOTEC™ SA40 water-based polymer dispersion helps paint manufacturers formulate masonry primers with superior resistance to alkali and efflorescence.

Our PLIOTEC™ SA40 resin is mainly used in:

• Primers for fresh concrete/mortar
• Alkali and efflorescence-resistant primers
• General masonry primers
• Basement waterproofing sealers
• Primers for fiber cement

Paints bearing PLIOTEC™ logo have passed rigorous technical specifications to ensure they meet customer requirements.
