MULTIMESH

Virgin Nylon, Medium Denier, Superior Finish


NYLON IS BETTER THAN POLYPROPYLENE
NYCON-MULTIMESH is an 8-denier virgin nylon monofilament fiber that offers reduced dose per cubic yard while providing plastic shrinkage crack control and superior finish.

DESCRIPTION
NYCON-MULTIMESH fiber products are 8 denier, monofilament nylon fibers for use in fiber reinforced concrete, stucco and shotcrete. NYCON-MULTIMESH is specifically designed for use in concrete products for the purpose of controlling plastic shrinkage and thermal cracking.

NYCON-MULTIMESH meets the requirements of ASTM C-1116, Section 4.1.3 and AC-32 at 1.0 lb (0.45 kg) per CY. MULTIMESH has completed ICC-ES evaluation as reported in ER 5460.

APPLICATIONS
NYCON-MULTIMESH utilizes the mixing activity to disperse the fibers into the mix. NYCON-MULTIMESH acts with a surface bond in the concrete with a multi-dimensional fiber network. NYCON-MULTIMESH does not affect curing process chemically.

NYCON-MULTIMESH can be used in all types of concrete. Synthetic fibers help the concrete at early ages, which is especially beneficial where stripping time and handling is important.

NYCON-MULTIMESH used in shotcrete applications will increase the compaction and density of shotcrete, reducing rebound and permitting thicker layers per pass.

ADVANTAGES/BENEFITS
• Surface bond with the concrete
• Reduces the formation of plastic shrinkage cracking in concrete.
• Provides multi-dimensional reinforcement.
• Improves impact, shatter and abrasion resistance of concrete.
• Enhances durability and toughness of concrete.
• Excellent, “no fuzz” finishability
