Lime Juice Mortar Additive 1 Litre

Lime Juice complies with the Australian Masonry Structures AS 3700 Standards.

Lime Juice makes working with cement easier. Just 50 grams (2 x cap fulls) per 20 kilograms of cement extends plastering mortar setting times, increasing cohesion and adhesion while decreasing the risk of defects. Completely non-caustic, bricklayers can start work immediately without risking their safety and with no additional PPE.

Benefits of Lime Juice lime replacement:

• It increases the adhesion of the fresh mixture to the substrate.
• It extends the mortar setting time.
• It improves plasticity through its air-entraining action.
• It increases the cohesion of the mortar, thus preventing sagging.
• It eliminates the risk of blistering.
• It increases masonry wall strength.
• It significantly reduces the cost of mortar.
• It eliminates lime storage problems.
• It does not contain chlorides or other corrosive ingredients.

Lime Juice used as an admixture in mortar complies with Australian Standard AS 3700 Section 11.4.2.4 requirements for:

• Compressive Strength (AS 1012.9).
• Flexural Strength (AS 3700 Appendix D6).
• Durability (M2 Mortar) (AS 3700 Appendix E).

Lime Juice also complies with AS 1478.1 for air-entraining admixtures (Bleed Test AS 1012.6) and chemical requirements (AS 1478.1 Section 1 & 2) when used as instructed.

Lime Juice has been designed for longer setting times than standard mortars (AS 1012.18).

Usage Instructions:

For Masonry and Paving Mortar, use 50g (2 capfuls) of Lime Juice per 20kg of cement.
