Concrete Curing Compound is a liquid membrane-forming compound applied to prevent moisture loss and allow proper hydration for full strength and durability development in concrete - Types: Synthetic Resin (removable membrane), Acrylic (good adhesion for plastering), Wax (temporary efficiency), Chlorinated Rubber (thick pore-filling film) - Key Properties: Water Retention, Reflectance, Drying Time, Long-Term Sealing, Non-Volatile Content - Application: spray/brush on finished, free water-free surface at 0.2-0.25 m²/L, 0.5-0.7 MPa pressure, avoid areas for future concrete placement - Uses: cure large areas, pavements, runways, bridge decks, dams, canal linings, columns, beams, slabs when wet curing isn't feasible - Advantages: easier curing for exposed surfaces, maximum durability, membrane removable after curing - Testing: ASTM C309 for specifications and testing.
