ETONIS®

Polymer Modifiers for Fresh and Hardened Concrete

Break new ground in infrastructure! Innovative ETONIS® modifiers improve the properties of both fresh and hardened concrete and open up new cost-cutting potential.

Effects

  • ETONIS® inherently enhanced cohesion and adhesion.
  • ETONIS® makes fresh concrete softer. This has a positive effect on flow properties, pumpability and sedimentation stability.
  • ETONIS® makes hardened concrete ductile by lowering it's modulus of elasticity while its compressive strength remains high. In practice, this means higher tensile and flexural strengths, greater elongation at break, lower tendency to tear and better bonding. In addition, concrete modified with ETONIS® displays excellent abrasion resistance and high resistance to CO2, salts, acids, chemicals and other aggressive media.

Processing

ETONIS® is available in liquid or powder form and can be added in a variety of ways. In sprayed concrete, ETONIS® is suitable for both wet and dry spraying.
