Description
Aydos®-Lightcon 25 is a ready to use foaming agent for producing lightweight foam concrete. Additionally, with artificial lightweight aggregate (ALA), Aydos®-Lightcon 25 enables production of economic lightweight, heat insulating and sound-absorbing foamed mortar and concrete.

Backfilling of tunnel lining, making flat subsoil on slopes, soft ground treatment, etc.
Filling various unused pipes, etc.
Heat insulation products, ALC panels, etc, particularly requiring fine surface.
Cap flashing, raising floor level and non structural applications.
The substrate of waterproofing in deck roofs, balconies, etc., slab mortar and concrete on the ground and the substrate of pedestrian deck.
Other various air-entrained cement milk and foamed mortar and concrete application

Bleeding reduced Minimises sedimentation.
Dosage can bevaried considerably By varying the dosage rate, stable and independent fine foam can be produced (approx. 70% in cement water, 60% in mortar and 30% in concrete).
Odourless Maintain good working environment at tunnel, underground jobs, etc due to odourless agent.
Produces high foam Achieve excellent foaming performance not only in cement milk but also in mortar and concrete.
Reduces heat conductivity Provides better heat insulation.
 

Dossage 

Dosage varies considerably according to employed materials, temperature, mix-design, mixing procedure, etc. Therefore, trial mix should be made to determine the appropriate dosage.
Consult a Aydos Construction Chemicals representative for more information.

 

Application 
Pre-foamed method

Dilute Aydos®-Lightcon 25 with water at a ratio of 1:19.
Control amount of compressed air and flow of diluted Aydos®-Lightcon 25 in order to obtain appropriate optimum foam volume (Volume of foam/volume of diluted Aydos®-Lightcon 25), around 20- 25 times.
Introduce foam into either continuous mixer or agitator truck directly and mix well at high speed with mortar or concrete for at least 10-15 min. Then place foamed Mortar /concrete by pump, etc
 
Ordinary mix method

Introduce undiluted Aydos®-Lightcon 25 into mixing water. In this case, amount of Aydos®-Lightcon 25 should be considered as a part of mixing water.
Mixing procedure: Introduce aggregate and cement into the mixer and then add mixing water with Aydos®- Lightcon 25.
Mix well for 1.2 – 1.5 times longer period of ordinary mix.
