Category: Cement-based
Description:
MasterEmaco N 5200CI is a universal, single component, polymer modified, fast setting, repair, re-profiling and levelling mortar. MasterEmaco N 5200CI is a ready-to-use material that contains special cements, well graded sands, carefully selected polymers and fibres to reduce shrinkage and improve physical and application properties. Formerly known as EMACO® Nanocrete R2.
Typical Use:
non-structural repair of concrete elements like:
- Balconies edges
- Building facades
- Parapet walls
- Precast panels
- Beam edges
- Stair nosings
Apparent use of Nanotechnology: Silica Fume
Reason for Inclusion:
1. "Nanoparticle use in cementageous and concrete materials does concentrate on TiO2 and silica fume. Both additives though, are used in small quantities or in a two-layer system and only when specifically required for performance reasons because of the costs involved. Examples of products on a basis of silica fume that are currently at the market are i.e. Chronolia™, Agilia™ and Ductal™ by Lafarge and EMACO® Nanocrete by BASF."
