MicroFil Synthetic Micro Fibres is the ONLY Micro Fibres available that produce exceptionally high plastic shrinkage crack reduction, and is a literal alternative or replacement for WWM as secondary reinforcement.
Major Applications After Mixing With Concrete
- Longlasting PQC Roads
- Sturdy Flooring : Commercial and Industrial.
- Plastering & Painting
- Precast & Paving
- Civil
- Structural Concrete for Bridges and Culverts
Commercial & Ecological Benefits
- Lesser Costs: Poly fibres are 40-50% cheaper
- Corrosion & Embitterment free
- Lesser Carbon footprints
- Better Workability
- More Durability Lesser wear & tear of equipments
- Better Crack & Fire resistance
- Light weight & Easier handling
- Significantly improves shrinkage and temperature crack control.
- Potential for increases in joint spacing.
- Unlike steel, doesn’t stain concrete with rust marks.
- Safer and Lighter to handle than Steel.
Technical Features & Benefits
- Significant Reduction in Plastic Shrinkage Cracking >90%
- Fibres Chemically Bond with the Concrete Paste
- Excellent Finishability – Virtual Invisible at the Surface
- Always a Uniform Distribution of fibres throughout the Matrix
- Chemical Resistant – to include Deicing Chemicals
- Increases Impact Resistance
- Increases Shatter Resistance
- Improves Freeze/Thaw Durability for Extended Life
- Reduces Spalling and Surface Debonding from Corrosion
- Reduces Plastic Settlement and Water Migration with a Better Consolidation of Materials, for a more Uniform Bleed
