01

What it is

Our resins for microcement stand out for their easy application and outstanding mechanical resistance. Completely solvent-free, these acrylic and water-based resins are used to consolidate cementitious surfaces.

Depending on the field of application and use, there are two types of resins within the Acricem family. On the one hand, Acricem, which shares the name of the range, and which is used as a B-component for the Sttandard, Natture systems. On the other hand, Acricem Pool, specifically for Atlanttic microcement swimming pools.

Resin for two-component microcement

As a primer for bonding cementitious substrates before applying microcement

Acricem is the two-component microcement resin. Specifically, it forms the B component of our Sttandard, Natture microcement systems. This water-based acrylic resin significantly increases the mechanical performance of the coating as well as the impermeability of the mortar.

See full details

The product is supplied ready for use and can also be applied as a primer in a single coat by roller or brush. In this case, it will be necessary to wait a minimum of 30 minutes and never more than 24 hours to apply the first coat of microcement on the substrate.

Among the many qualities of this resin for microcement, it is worth highlighting the reduction of cracks due to shrinkage. It also gives greater cohesion and plasticity to the mortar or concrete when fresh.

Uses
  • As a primer for bonding cementitious substrates before applying microcement.
  • Additive for the mixing water of mortars.
  • Component B of two-component microcement systems, except in swimming pools.
Yield
The consumption of Acricem microcement resin is 0.10L/m2, although it may vary depending on the porosity of the substrate treated.
Packaging
Acricem water-based acrylic resin is available in 5 and 25 litre packaging.
Instructions for use
1. Pour a little of the Acricem microcement resin into a container and add the corresponding quantity of pigment. 2. Mix the resin and pigment until a homogeneous colour is achieved. 3. Add the two-component microcement powder gradually. 4. Mix with a low speed mechanical stirrer for 4 minutes until there are no lumps.

Resin for swimming pool microcement

Liquid component for the mixing of Atlanttic Aquaciment two-component swimming pool microcement

Acricem Pool is a unique microcement resin for swimming pools. Developed specifically for the Atlanttic Aquaciment system, this water-based acrylic resin exponentially multiplies water impermeability as well as water vapour permeability.

See full details

A resin for microcement that includes water repellents in its formula, repelling water and therefore being the perfect complement for swimming pool basins. With low water absorption, it creates safe crack-free spaces thanks to its superior mechanical resistance.

Uses
  • Liquid component for the mixing of Atlanttic Aquaciment two-component swimming pool microcement. Cannot be used as component B of another Topciment® microcement system.
Yield
The consumption of Acricem Pool microcement resin for swimming pools is 0.10L/m2, but may vary depending on the porosity.
Packaging
Acricem Pool water-based acrylic resin is available in 25 litre containers.
Instructions for use
1. Pour a small amount of Acricem Pool microcement resin into a container and pigment with the corresponding amount of Arcocem® pigment. 2. Mix until a completely homogeneous liquid colour is obtained. 3. Add the Atlanttic Aquaciment microcement for swimming pools gradually. Mix with a mechanical stirrer at low revolutions for at least 2-3 minutes. 4. Stop when the mixture is homogeneous and free of lumps. 5. Apply one coat of Acricem Pool with a roller and let it dry for approximately 30-45 minutes.
Mixing ratios

Important: The proportions must be respected in order to guarantee the properties of the microcement coating.
