Question 1

What is Mapecrete LI Hardener 25Kg and what does it do?

Accepted Answer

Mapecrete LI Hardener 25Kg is a lithium-ion-based hardening and curing agent designed to support and accelerate the setting of cement-based mortars, concrete, and screeds. It helps deliver a smoother finish, increases early hardness, and improves impermeability.

Question 2

How does a lithium-ion hardener differ from traditional curing agents?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 3

What surfaces and mixes is Mapecrete LI Hardener suitable for?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 4

What are the main benefits of using Mapecrete LI Hardener?

Accepted Answer

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

Question 5

How should I apply Mapecrete LI Hardener to a fresh mix or surface?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 6

What safety measures should I follow when using this product?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 7

Can Mapecrete LI Hardener be used to achieve early walkable surfaces?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 8

Is Mapecrete LI Hardener suitable for use in areas requiring water resistance?

Accepted Answer

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

Question 9

What are common use cases for this product?

Accepted Answer

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.
