Revokem RP1000 is a specially formulated, set retarding additive in fine powder form, designed to control open and set times in a wide range of drymix mortar applications. It is a blend of specially selected organic acids and salts, processed to produce a fine, free-flowing powder for efficient dispersion in cementitious and gypsum-based drymix mortar formulations.
Revokem RP1000 can be used to control and extend working, open, and setting times in rapid setting systems, including fast-set tile adhesives and repair mortars. It is particularly effective during periods of high ambient temperatures, preventing early setting or premature loss of open time. The product can be used on its own or alongside Cemkem’s performance additive range, such as Lithkem, Kemplast, Expelair, Celopro, and Cemkem SRA.
The optimum dosage is dependent on mix design, processes, and raw materials. Typical drymix mortar applications require:
Note: Optimum dosage should be determined through appropriate laboratory trials. Overdosing may negatively affect final strengths.
