Concentrated Mold Agent

What is Concentrated Mold Agent?

Concentrated Mould Oil is a mould release agent used for separating the mould from the concrete more easily by preventing possible adhesion between the surface of the concrete and the mould. The product is a mixture of a special emulsifier and mineral oil, which provides a smooth concrete surface. Also, it can be used by diluting with water.

Uses of Concentrated Mould Agent

• Absorbent mould surfaces, especially on wooden molds.
• Steel, plastic, and plywood molding.
• Applications where long-term efficiency is desired by extending the service life of the mould.
• Mould oil applications where cost-efficiency is desired by speeding up the mold work. 

Advantages of Concentrated Mould Oil

• It provides fast, clean, and easy separation of the mould.
• It extends the service life of the mould.
• Mould oil yields smooth and better-looking concrete surfaces.
• It doesn’t leave stains on concrete surfaces; hence it doesn’t spoil the concrete's appearance.
• It reduces the labor for mold work and decreases the cost.
• It is practical since the application is fast, simple, and easy.

Usage Areas of Concentrated Mold Agent

Concentrated mould oil can be used on non-absorbent mould surfaces (such as steel or plywood) without dilution. On less absorbent smooth surfaces, it can be diluted with a ratio of 1/7 before applying. As construction site company we advise to diluted ratio of 1/12 when the product is applied on more absorbent surfaces. 

If you want to obtain a white milk-colored emulsion, you can mix 1 unit of concentrated mould oil with 7-12 units of water. Make sure you mix them thoroughly. The homogeneous mixture can be applied to a thin film layer on the mold surface with a brush or roller, or you can simply spray it. Normally, in this way, permanent, effective, and efficient performance can be obtained. If the surface is highly absorbent, a second layer can be applied. 

Mould oil diluted according to weather conditions and mold condition should be applied at least 3 hours before pouring the concrete. Meanwhile, the water in the emulsion is absorbed by the surface, and the surface forms a film. 
1 kg of concentrated mold release oil can cover 45 to 80 m² depending on the general condition, surface, and type of the mold (wood, plastic, etc.).

Warnings and Precautions

• Make sure that the moulds are dry and clean before using the mould oil. The concrete must be completely free of oil and rust residues.
• The dilution water should be fresh and clean.
• Surfaces of the new moulds should be protected from the rain before pouring concrete.
• Applying too much oil may cause stains on the concrete surface. Therefore, the product should be applied as a thin film layer to get the maximum performance. 
• A few trials are recommended before applying.
• It is recommended to stir the oil before and during the application.
• Since wooden moulds, unlike the other moulds, are hollow and highly absorbent, they might need 2-3 times more lubrication than normal
