FIBER STRAND PPF

VIRGIN HOMOPOLYMER POLYPROPYLENE FIBER

FIBERSTRAND PPF Synthetic fibers, known for their significant tensile strength and flexibility, are utilized as reinforcing materials in concrete. These fibers are produced from thermoplastic polymers, which renders them perfectly suited for concrete applications. and is specifically designed to help mitigate the formation of plastic shrinkage cracking in concrete. Typically used at a dosage rate of 0.6 – 0.9 kg/m3, FIBERSTRAND PPF has been shown to greatly reduce plastic shrinkage cracking when compared to plain concrete. Delivered in polyethylene bags, resistant to moisture and physical damage 0.6/0.9/1.0kg/bag, 18kg/carton, 6.48mt/container.

Features & Benefits

• Controls and mitigates plastic shrinkage cracking.
• Reduces segregation, plastic settlement, and bleed water.
• Provides three-dimensional reinforcement against micro-cracking.
• Increases surface durability, impact, and abrasion resistance
• Reduction of in-place cost versus wire mesh for non-structural temperature/shrinkage crack control
• Easily added to concrete mixture at any time prior to placement.

Applications

• Slabs-on-grade, sidewalks, driveways, parking lots, curb work, overlays, and toppings
• Apartment, villas, factories, warehouse floors
• Footings, foundations, walls and tanks
• Stucco applications
