Biokil Admix – Air Entraining Mortar Plasticiser (5L & 25L)

The Biokil Admix is a concentrated liquid air entraining mortar plasticiser designed to improve the workability, trowelability, and durability of bricklaying mortars and render mixes. Formulated to enhance mortar performance without the need for additional lime, it creates smoother, more workable mixes while reducing bleeding and improving consistency.

Suitable for both domestic and commercial applications, Biokil Admix improves freeze/thaw resistance down to -2°C and conforms to BS 4887 Mortar Plasticisers standards for reliable performance.

Key Features & Benefits

• Improves workability – enhances mortar consistency and ease of application
• Air entraining formula – improves trowelability without additional lime
• Freeze/thaw resistant – protects mortar performance down to -2°C
• Reduces bleeding – creates more stable mortar mixes
• Chloride-free formulation – safe for general mortar applications
• Improves mortar durability – enhances long-term performance
• Conforms to BS 4887 – reliable mortar plasticiser specification
• Easy to use – simply add to gauging water

Typical Applications

• Bricklaying mortars
• Rendering and plaster backing coats
• Pointing mortars
• Patch repair mortar mixes
• General-purpose mortar applications
• Cold weather mortar work

How It Works

Biokil Admix introduces microscopic air bubbles into mortar mixes, improving workability and reducing the amount of water required. This creates smoother, easier-to-apply mortars with improved consistency and reduced shrinkage cracking.

The air entraining action also enhances freeze/thaw resistance, helping mortars perform more effectively in colder conditions. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
