E5 Internal Cure is the first admixture proven to provide internal curing of concrete. It controls the evaporation of the mix water to ensure increased hydration of cement. E5 Internal Cure replaces the need for traditional wet cure and curing compounds, while also making the concrete easier to pump, place, and finish.E5 Internal Cure increases the density of the concrete matrix, resulting in a highly durable surface which is resistant to abrasion and chemical attack even in heavy traffic areas and under freeze-thaw conditions.E5 Internal Cure admixture gives control back to the finisher, even in inclement weather conditions.E5 Internal Cure can be added to every yard of concrete including: exterior pavement, parking garages, structural walls, columns, footings, civil infrastructure, interior slab on grade and slab on metal decks.Features & Benefits Controls the water of transport and the water of convenience to cure. Eliminates wet curing and topical curing compounds.* Improves pumpability, workability and finishability. Reduces evaporation even in low humidity, high wind, and direct sunlight conditions. Reduces drying shrinkage and curling. Replaces traditional topical densifiers. *E5 Internal Cure has been tested by a 3rd party lab and qualifies for use as a concrete curing compound when tested in accordance with ASTM C156-20DosageFor all concrete applications, recommended dosage is 4 fl. oz. per 100 lbs. (0.52-2.61 L/100 kg) of cementitious material. It is recommended that concrete trial mixes be conducted to determine the correct dosage rate for your particular materials and ambient conditions. For more information about the use of this product, please contact your local E5® Representative or the Technical Services Department at 1-888-881-1726.MixingFor best results, E5® Internal Cure should be introduced in the concrete mixer at the ready mix location per the E5® Standard Operating Procedure. Allow for proper mixing at the plant before leaving for the project. It is recommended that the combined materials be mixed for approximately 70 revolutions, whether in the concrete mixer or in the Ready-Mix truckDrum and Totes quantities also available - please call 541-341-3390 for details on bulk orders
