Dr.S.Bond Release Agent is specially formulated blend of mineral oils and chemicals having release properties which are superior to those of a conventional mould oil. The chemicals react with the alkali in the concrete to form a thin water repellent skin on the surface of the mould, thereby enabling easy striping from concrete and acting as a protection to steel and wooden formwork. Dr.S.Bond Release Agent is supplied as a pale straw coloured liquid ready for direct application and use.

Advantages:

• Ensures easy release, good fair-faced concrete „
• Can be used on all types of formwork
• Minimises surface blemishes and staining „
• Minimises cleaning of shutters before re-use
• Reduces opportunity of damage to formwork, extending usable life.

Technical Support:

• Formwork Surfaces : Equally effective on wood or metal moulds and shutters. Particularly effective on GRP and other resinous coatings including Dr.S.Bond Release Agent coated wooden surfaces.
• Non-Staining : Does not stain concrete and can also be used safely with white cement.
• Concrete Surface Quality : In addition to preventing adhesion of the cement paste to the mould or shutter face, Dr.S.Bond Release Agent allows air, which would otherwise be trapped, to escape from the face when the concrete is being poured and vibrated.
• Pockets of air, trapped on the shuttered faces of concrete, are a major cause of imperfections, necessitating remedial work Dr.S.Bond Release Agent avoids time and money spent on this.
• The chemical reaction between Dr.S.Bond Release Agent and the cement in a concrete mix produces a strongly hydrophobic surface. This repels surplus water at the interface with the mould and by protecting the concrete from its effects, preserves uniformity of surface texture and colour.
• Re-Use Of Moulds - Due to excellent release properties, little or no deposit of cement paste remains on the shutter surface. Minimum cleaning down and further coat of Dr.S.Bond Release Agent renders shutters ready for reuse.
• Economic Benefits - On account of the high rate of coverage, the applied cost of Dr.S.Bond Release Agent chemical mould release agent compares favourable with that of conventional mould oil. Having regard to the technical benefits additionally obtained, the overall economy of using Dr.S.Bond Release Agent can be significant.

• Preparation Of New Moulds - No preparation is necessary, but if extensive reuse of timber mould is envisaged, it is advisable to protect all new surfaces with Dr.S.Bond Release Agent. Dr.S.Bond mould Release Agent protects timber from alkali attack which can result in a very short usable life. For used moulds, all traces of cement must be removed together with any surface deposit of previous oils.
• Coating - Dr.S.Bond Release Agent can be applied by brush, sponge or conventional mould oil-sprayer. If a mould oil-sprayer is used, care should be taken to ensure that the correct nozzle size is chosen. Stir the contents of the container thoroughly before use. Apply one coat of Dr.S.Bond Release Agent thinly and evenly over the entire surface. Only the thinnest coating necessary to achieve effective coverage should be applied. Excess application is uneconomical and may lead to surface dusting.
