Concrete Form Release Agent-LubriForm O

LubriForm O is produced based on petroleum solvents and is a mixture of plant and petroleum oil that are dispersed in a hydrocarbon solvent. This product is used to facilitate separating the body of the form from the concrete surface. This product facilitates this by two different mechanisms:

  • Physical: the petroleum oils develop an obstacle between the body of the form and the concrete surface and facilitate the separation of the form from the surface of the concrete.
  • Chemical: this product reacts with concrete on the surface of the form and produces soap ingredients by which the separation of the forms is facilitated.

The advantages of using the form release agent
  • • Facilitating the separation of form from the concrete
  • • Forming a clean surface without the honeycomb.
  • • Improving the durability of the surface of the concrete
  • • Increasing the lifetime of the concrete forms
  • • Minimizing the time of cleaning and re-preparing the used forms
  • • preventing the corrosion of the steel forms
The usage of the concrete form release agent
  • • Suitable for producing the pre-cast sections with steam curing
  • • Usable for the surfaces of different types of steel forms
  • • Usable for the surface of different types of plastic and fiberglass forms
  • • Usable for the surface of different types of plywood
The allowable range for using the form release agent

The allowable range for using the LubriForm O is approximately 1 liter per 10 to 20 m2 of the form.

The instruction to use the form release agent

It is necessary to clean the forms, brand new or used, from dust, crushed concrete, and the left oil before preparing them. Clean forms enhance the effectiveness of the release agent and highlight the aforementioned properties. It is recommended to use the Betonyse of Capco to wash the forms off the left concrete. Cover the surface of the form with LubriForm O after cleaning with suitable methods. Using the painting brush, sponge and spraying is recommended; however, spraying will have better results. The coverage must be as thin as possible and a thick coverage can reduce the durability of the final surface as well as being uneconomical. The surface of the form must be cleaned once the form is opened.
