Product Description

BIO-NOX chemically reacts with concrete to produce a slippery soap-like film that positively prevents the bonding of concrete to form surfaces.

Applications:

• Use on most smooth, clean form surfaces such as steel, HDO, MDO, plastic, fiberglass, and also on bare plywood and plywood faced handset forms.
• Use on many rubber and closed-cell foam forms and form liners that cannot tolerate conventional solvent or petroleum-based release agents.
• Ideal for use where environmental and occupational issues are of the utmost importance, such as enclosed precast operations or enclosed building sites.

Advantages:

• 100% biodegradable formulation.
• Free from conventional form oil, diesel oil, or kerosene.
• Provides smooth, uniform concrete surfaces with no staining and minimal surface voids.
• Crisp, positive release.
• Reduces form cleaning and maintenance costs – forms become self-cleaning with continued use.
• Contains a corrosion inhibitor designed to prevent flash rusting.
• Reduces the likelihood of skin or odor irritations that can occur with petroleum-based release agents.
• Concrete surfaces are free of residue and the natural bonding characteristics of paints, plasters, mortars, epoxies, and other surface coatings are not affected when BIO-NOX is properly applied.
• Can be used in most situations where forms are stripped and repoured within 24 hours.
• Can be successfully applied to damp form surfaces.
• Less sensitive to application rate variations than other chemically active form release agents.
• Fast-drying formulation allows early bed traffic and stringing of reinforcing strands.
• Green Engineered™ – better for health and the environment.
