WhY IS PHOSCRETE DIFFERENT
FROM ALL OTHER CONCRETES?
Little has changed since the ancient Romans began constructing with concrete in 600 BC. The Romans mixed volcanic ash, lime, and seawater. Modern Portland cement, invented in England in 1824, is made of limestone, clay, and water. When Portland cement is combined with hard aggregates, and other materials, that forms OPC (Ordinary Portland Cement) CONCRETE – the common building block of our modern infrastructure.
When concrete cracked and spalled, it had to be replaced because conventional concrete does not bond to itself. This required extensive demolition, removal, disposal, and replacement. Today, materials exist that patch broken concrete and extend the life of the structure. That is where Phoscrete, MALP concrete repair product that is easy to use, bonds strong and sets fast comes in!
What is rapid set concrete repair?
The simplest concrete repair material is asphalt because it is cheap and easy to patch. But unfortunately, it does not last very long. Newer repair materials called Elastomers are also made from petroleum-based products and bond better and last longer. Most conventional cementitious patch materials are made from Portland cement, and they do bond to the broken concrete.
Phoscrete is unconventional and innovative. Phoscrete concrete repair materials are not Portland cement, but Magnesium Phosphate cement-based MALP concrete, with very compelling properties including rapid hardening, strong bonding, and no shrinkage cracking.
If you do not like standing around waiting for concrete to dry, and you need a product that is easy to use, sets fast, bonds strong, and lasts long, try Phoscrete for your concrete repair projects, large and small. Phoscrete comes in tubs for minor repairs and in kits (bags and jugs) for larger patches.
