SikaControl® FD-100 helps to achieve concrete properties as described in the ACI 302.1R-15 - Guide to Concrete Floor and Slab construction. SikaControl® FD-100 provides the following advantages:

Concrete with minimum surface defects
Reduced risk of blistering and delamination issues
Easy to finish polished surface
Improved concrete aesthetics
Improved concrete uniformity and reduced risk of claims related to elevated air content
Improved concrete durability

Application

Application Information

Mixing

To achieve the best performance add SikaControl® FD-100 into the mixing water. In cases when this is not possible, SikaControl® FD-100 can be dispensed directly to freshly mixed concrete in the mixer at the end of batching cycle. To achieve proper dispersion of the product throughout the entire concrete volume, mixing time of minimum 90 seconds is recommended. SikaControl® FD-100 should not be dispensed directly onto cement, slag or fly ash.

Combination with other Admixtures: SikaControl® FD-100 can be used in combination with other Sika admixtures, however, each admixture should be added separately to the mix. It is always recommended to verify actual performance by conducting trial batches.

Do not use SikaControl® FD-100 in air entrained concrete.
In cases, when SikaControl® FD-100 is stored in bulk tanks, periodical checks of dispensing lines are recommended to prevent product leakage. Use only oil resistant hoses. SikaControl® FD-100 may cause deterioration of rubber hoses.Please contact your local regional office or technical service department at 1-800-933-7452 for further assistance.
