S-102™ is formulated to exceed the performance requirements of all concrete water-cure specifications. Use of S-102™ assures that the specified design strengths will be achieved along with development of improved surface durability properties.
S-102™ is the only proven method to prevent rapid drying of the concrete surface during the cure phase, eliminating cure-related cracking and crazing, while minimizing or eliminating earlyage differential shrinkage (slab-curling).

STRENGTH DEVELOPMENT
S-102™ initiates secondary hydration within the concrete which results in the formation of additional C-S-H (cement). The additional cement dramatically densifies the substrate which retains mix water within the concrete during the curing process providing for complete hydration. As a result, S-102™ allows concrete to develop physical properties better than all conventional water-cure methods.
IMPROVED DURABILITY
Millions of square meters of cured concrete have demonstrated that S-102™ delivers concrete of the high- est quality. By delivering concrete free from cure-related cracks along with greatly reduced surface permeability, S-102™ protects against chloride ion penetration, freeze-thaw damage and premature concrete deterioration and wear. This adds up to an increased service life and main- tenance cost savings.
S-102™ leaves no surface residue and is guaranteed to be compatible with all bond-breakers, patching compounds, wall coatings, paints, flooring materials, staining processes, crack and joint materials. Overspray on reinforcement steel does not require removal.
TESTING
Testing of S-102™ is the most comprehensive in the industry and has been conducted with two primary objectives: (1) to establish and prove superior performance; and (2) to ensure a close and consistent correlation between laboratory and field results.
