★★Update★★★ I tried mixing #ToughLightRG and #VulchipMK with reinforced fiber blend.★★★

By mixing Balchip MK and Toughlite RG for mortar spraying, the crack occurrence rate in mortar structures is further reduced!

The mortar reinforcement fiber mixed spraying proposed by K.F. involves mixing polypropylene fibers for mortar reinforcement, "Balchip MK," with crack suppression polypropylene short fibers, Toughlight RG, and spraying them to further reduce the crack occurrence rate in mortar structures, thereby enhancing durability and reducing lifecycle costs. By performing mixed spraying of reinforcement fibers on slopes and other areas, a more permanent weed prevention effect can be expected. 【Why is the crack occurrence rate reduced?】 Reinforcement fibers have various characteristics depending on their type, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. "Balchip MK" has a long fiber length and a rough texture, allowing the mortar to cling to each fiber, making it difficult to pull out and providing crack prevention effects (cross-linking effect). Additionally, as the bending toughness increases, it is possible to omit the wire mesh and reduce the spraying thickness. However, because each fiber is long and thick, the adhesion area within the mortar becomes smaller.

• Slope protection material
• Reinforced earth wall

Construction period and cost reduction possible! This is a lightweight mortar reinforcement fiber that is easy to transport and add compared to steel fibers.

Keif handles products such as polypropylene fibers and vinylon fibers, which are compatible with concrete. "Mortar reinforcement fibers" have good adhesion to cement, making it difficult for cracks to form, and if cracks do occur, they help suppress their growth. The binding force of mortar reinforcement fibers helps prevent the weakening of the structure during freezing, improves freeze-thaw resistance, and enhances long-term durability. 【Benefits of Reinforcement Fibers】 ■ In surface work, the lath application can be omitted, reducing construction time and costs. ■ Lighter than steel fibers, making transportation and addition easier. ■ Being organic fibers, they do not rust and maintain aesthetic appeal. 【Expected Application Scenarios】 ■ Sprayed concrete (surface work, tunnels) ■ Secondary lining ■ Painting work, etc. 【Products Handled】 ■ Kratec ■ Valtip MK, etc. *For more details, please refer to the PDF titled "Essential for Surface Work Contractors! Comparison Table of Mortar Reinforcement Fiber Method and Conventional Methods."

• Mortar and plaster materials
• Slope protection material
• Civil Engineering Method

It is a polypropylene fiber for mortar reinforcement that excels in workability and chemical resistance.

For crack suppression in slope construction! NETIS registration number: KT-100021-VE. ■ Lightweight and excellent workability. With a density of 0.91g/cm3, it is light, making transportation and mixing easy. ■ Excellent chemical resistance and rust-proof. It has superior alkali resistance and durability. ■ Adhesion to concrete. Embossed processing and hydrophilic treatment improve adhesion and enhance bending toughness. ■ Environmentally friendly. It does not produce dioxins (chlorine gas) when burned. 【Proposal: Weed prevention using reinforced fiber mixed spraying】 At K.F., we propose "weed prevention work using mortar reinforced fiber mixed spraying." Mortar reinforced fiber mixed spraying involves mixing polypropylene fibers for mortar reinforcement, "Balchip MK," with crack suppression polypropylene short fibers, Toughlight RG, and spraying them to further reduce the crack occurrence rate in mortar structures, thereby enhancing durability and reducing lifecycle costs. By performing reinforced fiber mixed spraying on slopes, such as the toe of the slope, more lasting weed prevention effects can be expected.

For suppressing shrinkage cracks in sprayed mortar! Safe material made of polypropylene! Crack-suppressing short fibers that can be mixed with a mixer.

Crack suppression polypropylene short fibers, Toughlight, are processed in bundles, making them less likely to scatter and less likely to pierce the skin. Furthermore, since polypropylene is the material used, no toxic gases are generated during combustion, making it a highly safe crack suppression short fiber. 【Incorporation Effects】 ● Reduces scattering and collapse during spraying ● Reduces shrinkage cracks caused by temperature changes and drying during the curing period 【Excellent Workability】 ● Easily mixed with a conventional mixer ● Generates few fiber balls and has high degradability ● The flow value remains unchanged with the incorporation of Toughlight, maintaining fluidity ● During spraying operations, fibers do not pierce like needles due to rebound There are many other features as well!

We will introduce the implementation results of the sensor technology developed by the Hotron Group, which has been cultivated over more than half a century, through customer case studies. In addition to automatic door sensors, we also offer a wide range of vehicle detection sensors and nursing/care sensors. We have many implementation examples available, so please take a look at the case study page.

iPick Co., Ltd., a partition manufacturer, will explain the definition of non-combustible materials under the Building Standards Act and their importance in office interiors. Fire-resistant materials are classified into three categories: non-combustible, quasi-non-combustible, and flame-retardant, based on safety during a fire. At iPick, we handle aluminum partitions that have received non-combustible certification, demonstrating high fire resistance, which is required by "interior restrictions" depending on the size and use of the building. Selecting appropriate materials is crucial not only for protecting the lives of employees but also from the perspective of asset protection and business continuity planning (BCP). We propose the creation of safe spaces that balance compliance with regulations and design. ＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊ For the design and construction of interior partitions from offices to toilet booths, leave it to iPick, the partition specialist manufacturer!
