POLYPROPYLENE FIBER - 3mm
3mm Length Fiber
CETEX CPP03 are polypropylene micro flock fiber of 3 mm length developed for prevention of crack formation and to provide reinforcement in cementatious mix, coatings and waterproofing products. They are mainly used in fine layer of cementatious concrete for strength; in grout for crack prevention; in paint (base coats / waterproofing) for additional reinforcement. These microfibers increase the tensile strength, impact strength, water permeability and durability of the matrix significantly.
Suitable care has been taken to ensure dispersion of fibers during hand mixing of mortar and in paint. It conforms to ASTM C 1116/C 1116M – 10a 4.1.3 Type III & BS EN 14889-2:2006.
