The problem of concrete dusting is widespread in various industrial workshops, enterprises, hangars, and, in fact, in all rooms where the concrete screed does not have a finishing decorative coating. Fine dust carries several dangers at once: getting into the respiratory tract of a person, it not only irritates the mucous membrane and causes a cough, but also settles in the body, causing more serious consequences. In addition to harm to health, dust gets clogged into the working parts of the units - it clogs them and negatively affects the production process. About how to deal with dust on a concrete screed and will be discussed.
Why does concrete get dusty?
Concrete dusts for two reasons, which are often combined with each other. In the process of pouring the concrete screed, cement particles remain that have not reacted with water. This cement gets into the pores of the already frozen concrete — and rises in streams of air. A low-quality screed also dusts due to the rapid destruction of concrete - dust occurs during the appearance of microcracks, then rises in air masses and spreads around the room.
How to cover the concrete floor from dust?
The best way to avoid dusting of concrete is to cover the screed with special strengthening compounds. Such innovative liquids include the concrete hardener Teknoser Lityum. The water base allows the composition to be well absorbed into the deep layers, and the crystal structure helps to clog the pores, which ultimately prevents the appearance of dust.
The composition is a lithium silicate substance that is easy and fast to apply, and helps to solve more than one problem. In addition to eliminating the appearance of dust, the Teknoser Lityum concrete hardener will help protect concrete from moisture and other negative factors. The main advantages of the substance include:
increasing the strength and durability of concreteSuch substances are recommended for use in industrial workshops, hangars, service stations, and internal parking lots. Also, the Teknoser Lityum concrete hardener is widely used for impregnating concrete screeds of berths, hangars for helicopters and other aviation equipment.
