Rapid-Setting DIY Concrete

Rapid-Setting DIY Concrete

Despite all the advantages of concrete, its slow curing time has always been a significant limitation. Creating decorative concrete pieces traditionally required prolonged setting times (12-24 hours), making the process inefficient for DIY enthusiasts. The high costs of mold production and lengthy curing periods have severely restricted the use of conventional concrete in craft projects. While additives like gypsum and alkaline salts can accelerate setting, they often compromise strength and cause cracking.

Recognizing this market need, we began developing Rapid-Setting DIY Concrete in 2017. By 2019, we successfully introduced our Polymer-Modified Rapid-Setting DIY Concrete to the market.

Rapid-Setting DIY Concrete Features:

• Ready-to-use formula with exceptional strength and durability

• Complete quality testing and development

• Contains all necessary additives – just add water

• Achieves 350-450 kg/cm² compressive strength

• Simplified mixing process with specialized formulation

• Requires no additional additives

• High-workability instant-setting perfect for DIY projects

• Lab-tested results:

  • ≥20 MPa at 3 days

  • Up to 40 MPa at 28 days

Mixing Guidelines:

• Water content: 17-20% by weight

• Initial set: 2-5 minutes (depending on water ratio and temperature)

• Final set/de-molding: 20-30 minutes

• Reaches 300 kg/cm² compressive strength by day 3

DIY Project Tips:

1. Allow pieces to cure in workshop conditions (keep dry) for at least 24 hours

2. Full drying takes about 3 days (varies by project size)

3. No special curing needed after 3 days – your creation is ready!
