ASTM C1059/C1059M-13

Standard Specification for Latex Agents for Bonding Fresh To Hardened Concrete

ABSTRACT
This specification covers the requirements for latex bonding agents suitable for use in brushes, brooms, or sprays. The bonding agents are intended for use in bonding fresh concrete to hardened concrete such as in interior surfaces, floors, roadways, bridge decks, ramps, runways, walks, and curbs. Each material should comply with the specified bond strength requirement for either of the two types of latex.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers latex bonding agents, suitable for brush, broom, or spray application, to bond fresh concrete to hardened concrete.  
1.2 These latex bonding agents are intended for bonding new concrete to old concrete such as interior surfaces, floors, roadways, bridge decks, ramps, runways, walks, and curbs.  
1.3 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.
