• Construction Dry-mix Dry-Mix Accelerators

Sodium Silicate

• Sodium Silicate, when used in dry-mix applications, can improve the final product’s workability, setting time, and strength. It also effectively reduces the risk of shrinkage and cracking in the mortar.

  Sodium Silicate is often used with other accelerators to achieve the desired effect. Sodium Silicate is available in both liquid and powder form. However, the powder additive is used for the acceleration of dry mix mortars. Sodium Silicate powder is typically more stable and has a longer shelf life than the liquid form.
