Application

Bayris Lime Substitute “For Plastering and Masonry Work” is designed to regulate the properties of cement-sand mortars that are constantly exposed to atmospheric conditions and require enhanced frost resistance and water resistance. Recommended for plastering applications and for laying all types of brick, aerated concrete and foam concrete blocks, ceramic tiles and wall tiles. A specially developed additive designed to replace lime.

Characteristics

An active additive that creates a large number of closed air pores within the structure of freshly prepared mortar during mixing. The material improves plasticity, prevents mortar settlement, maintains viscosity and workability during technological pauses, and makes application easier and more convenient. After the concrete (mortar) hardens, closed micro-pores are formed, reducing water absorption and water penetration. The additive increases the frost resistance of masonry and plaster layers. Creates a “breathable plaster” effect. Prevents efflorescence, reduces the risk of cracks and stains, and does not cause corrosion of steel reinforcement. Helps reduce the cost of mortar preparation, construction work and transportation services.

Application Instructions

Apply at substrate and ambient temperatures between +5 °C and +30 °C. Add to the concrete mix simultaneously with the mixing water. Ensure even distribution of the additive by thorough mixing.

Warning!

Do not add to dry components.

Consumption

Masonry work: (0.25–0.5) L per 50 kg of cement. Plastering work: (0.3–0.6) L per 50 kg of cement for plastering mortars.

Designed to regulate the properties of cement-sand mortars that are constantly exposed to atmospheric conditions and require enhanced frost resistance and water resistance.

FAQ
What Is a Lime Substitute for Mortars and Plasters?

BAYRIS Lime Substitute is a specialised admixture for cement-sand mortars that replaces traditional lime, improves plasticity, and enhances the frost resistance and water resistance of masonry and plaster finishes.

What Applications Is Lime Substitute Designed For?

BAYRIS Lime Substitute is used for plastering work, bricklaying, the installation of aerated concrete and foam concrete blocks, as well as ceramic wall and floor tile fixing applications.

Can Lime Substitute Replace Hydrated Lime?

Yes, the product has been specifically developed as a complete replacement for lime in cement-based mortars without compromising strength or durability.

How Does Lime Substitute Affect Mortar Plasticity?

The additive improves plasticity and workability, helps prevent segregation, and maintains mortar consistency during construction delays and application pauses.

Does This Admixture Help Prevent Efflorescence?

Yes, BAYRIS Lime Substitute reduces water absorption and helps prevent efflorescence, staining, and uneven surface discolouration.

Can Soap Replace a Mortar Admixture?

Absolutely NOT! Household soaps and detergents are not designed for use with cement. They can disrupt the mortar structure and may lead to efflorescence, cracking, and reduced frost resistance.

How Does Lime Substitute Affect Frost Resistance?

After curing, closed micro-pores are formed within the mortar, reducing water absorption and improving the frost resistance of masonry and plaster finishes.

How Should Lime Substitute Be Added to Mortar?

The admixture should be added together with the mixing water, ensuring thorough and even distribution throughout the mortar. Adding it directly to the dry components is not permitted.

What Is the Coverage Rate of BAYRIS Lime Substitute?

For masonry work: 0.25–0.5 L per 50 kg of cement. For plastering work: 0.3–0.6 L per 50 kg of cement.

Is the Admixture Suitable for Interior and Exterior Use?

Yes, the lime substitute is suitable for both exterior and interior applications, including mortars that are continuously exposed to weathering and atmospheric conditions.
