A) Aggregate to cement ratio should not exceed 2.5: 1
B) Acrylic curing compound addition is recommended at a minimum dosage of
3% polymer solids per weight of cement. This will reduce the loss of water
through evaporation and will enhance the bond to the back-up mix. Do not
allow too much time between facing and back-up application as the acrylic
may film form and create a bond break.
C) High or Low Range water reducers that meet ASTM C494 should be added to
maintain a low water/cement ratio and achieve higher density, lower
permeability, and a more durable surface.
D) Water addition should not exceed that required to achieve a 28 day
compressive strength = or> 4000 psi and an absorption = or < 10% by weight.
A) Cement shall meet ASTM C150. Type I/II, low alkali cements are
recommended.
B) Acrylic curing compound minimum addition shall be 5% polymer solids per
weight of cement.
C) High or Low Range water reducers meeting ASTM C494.
D) Water/Cement ratio should not exceed .35.
E) Glass Fiber shall meet PCl requirements per MNL-130 Appendix D. The
glass shall contain a minimum zirconium oxide content of 16%. Unprotected
"E" glass designed for use in plastics, shall not be used. The minimum fiber
content shall be 4% by total weight.
F) Sand shall meet compositional requirements of ASTM C144. To minimize
clogging of the concentric gun nozzle, all of the particles shall pass a U.S. No.

Basic Formulation
1: 1 Sand/cement
5% polymer solids weight of dry cement weight
0.33 water/cement
5% glass fiber
PolyPI ex Polymer
1. Take weight of cement, say 94 lbs. Multiply by 5%=4.7Ibs= weight of polymer solids required.
2. PolyPlex emulsion contains 47% polymer solids, 53% water, so weight of emulsion required =4.7 = 10 Ibs .
.47
Mix Water
Take water:cement ratio required, say .33 approximately
Water required = 94 x .33 = 311bs approx.
PolyPI ex emulsion contains 53% water, then 10 Ibs polymer emulsion will contribute 5.3 lbs of mix water required.
Therefore, extra mix water required = 25.71bs
