Description
Chryso® Mortair is a liquid air‑entraining admixture designed for the production of air‑entrained mortars. It is typically used alongside Chryso® Mortard 79/5 mortar retarder to support the efficient manufacture of ready‑to‑use mortars compliant with EN 998.
The product creates a stable and uniform air‑void system within the mortar matrix, ensuring consistent air content across a wide dosage range. This improves workability, reduces bleeding, and ensures predictable mortar performance throughout its usable life.
Chryso® Mortair is suitable for factory-produced and ready-to-use mortars where controlled air entrainment and consistent performance are required. It is compatible with a range of cement types, including Portland cement and blends containing fly ash or GGBS, making it a versatile solution for mortar production.
Application areas
Chryso®Mortair is suitable for:
- Factory‑produced mortars
- Ready‑to‑use mortars
- Mortars requiring controlled air entrainment and consistent workability
Chryso®Mortair must not be premixed with other admixtures.
- Each admixture must be added separately
- The presence of other chemicals may affect performance
Chryso®Mortair can be used with:
- Most types of Portland cement
- Mortars containing fly ash
- Mortars containing ground granulated blastfurnace slag (GGBS)
For special cements, consultation with Chryso Technical Services is recommended.
