Mapei Lithium Concrete Hardener, 25Kg, Suitable for Dust-Proofing and Surface Hardening of Industrial Floors

Lithium-ion hardeners like Mapecrete LI work with cement hydration to speed up setting and hardening, while also aiding water movement through the material to boost impermeability. This can lead to faster usable strength and a finer surface finish compared with some conventional curing agents.

It is intended for use with cement-based mortars, concrete and screeds to support and accelerate curing and hardening processes, delivering a smoother finish and improved early strength.

Key benefits include faster setting, a finer surface finish, increased early hardness, and enhanced impermeability/water resistance of the concrete or mortar.

For fresh mixes, incorporate the product into the cement-based mix according to Mapei’s guidelines. For freshly placed concrete or screeds, apply as directed to ensure even distribution and maintain proper curing conditions for best results.

Store in a cool, dry place in its original packaging. Wear appropriate PPE (gloves, eye protection, and a mask if dust is generated). Avoid contact with skin and eyes, and keep away from children and animals.

The product is designed to speed up setting and hardening, which can contribute to earlier surface readiness under suitable conditions. Actual walk-on timing depends on ambient conditions and the concrete/mortar mix.

Yes, one of its features is improving impermeability and water resistance in cement-based materials, helping the finished surface resist moisture better.

Common use cases include speeding up setting in new floors or industrial concrete, aiding rapid hardening for foot traffic areas, and improving the surface quality of screeds and cementitious mortars in refurbishment or new-build projects.
