LIPATON SB 5843 is a ready-for-use aqueous dispersion of a styrene-butadiene copolymer with high stability against electrolytes containing an APEO-free anionic/nonionic emulsifier system. It is free from film-forming aids, solvents, plasticizers, and ammonia. LIPATON SB 5843 contains a special defoamer to reduce the air content in cement mortars.

Application Advice:

LIPATON SB 5843 is used in combination with cement, lime, gypsum, etc. Adding LIPATON SB 5843 improves the workability, wet adhesion, and plasticity of fresh mortars. The dispersion is strongly liquefied and reduces the water requirement at the same mortar consistency. LIPATON SB 5843 improves the following end properties: flexural strength (up to 50 %), adhesive strength, abrasion/water/chemical/freeze/thaw resistance and shrink/swell behavior. LIPATON SB 5843 has extremely good resistance to saponification, by which long-term stability in the strongly alkaline region, even under moist conditions, is secured. The dispersion has no corrosion-promoting action on steel reinforcements and is a film forming above + 3 °C.

Additions of film-forming agents or plasticizers are, therefore, not required. LIPATON SB 5843 is used in floor screeds, leveling compounds, adhesive-bonded joints, sealers/primers, repair mortars for concrete restoration, cement-based anticorrosion paints, gypsum-based stoppers/fillers, and building adhesives. Surface chalking can occur due to the limited UV stability of styrene-butadiene copolymers. This behavior is identical to unmodified mortars. In case of higher demands concerning optical properties of surfaces, PLEXTOL D 509 is recommended. Adding 10 - 50 % by weight of LIPATON SB 5843 - related to the cement content - is recommended to improve mortars.

LIPATON SB 5843 is preserved against bacterial and fungal attacks. In the manufacture of finished products, the material has to be retreated, as usual, with suitable biocides to give enhanced preservation.

Shipping and Storage:

Store at an even temperature of between +5°C and +35°C avoiding frost and direct sunlight. Stir the product before use. If stored according to these conditions and in the original unopened containers, the dispersion will be stable for 12 months following delivery. The product should be used as soon as possible after opening. During processing, storage and transport, avoid any contact with metals (including nonferrous metals) that are not protected against corrosion.
