With 35 years of experience, Wagman continues to be a leading expert for furnishing and installing Latex Modified Concrete.

In 1974, Dow Chemical Company Selected Wagman as one of the few initial licensees to furnish and install Latex Modified Concrete. This relationship, along with our more recent relationship with BASF, has significantly contributed to Wagman’s role as a leading expert in Latex Modified Concrete.

Latex Modified Concrete, primarily used as a thin bonded overlay to protect bridge decks and parking structures, has been described as the “ideal repair material.” As Latex Modified Concrete cures, the polymer forms internal plastic films which result in the following improved characteristics:

  • Low Permeability The internal plastic films reduce penetration of moisture and chloride ions, improving freeze-thaw resistance and protecting reinforcing steel from corrosion.
  • Low Modulus of Elasticity The modulus of elasticity of LMC is 15% lower than conventional concrete, making it less brittle and more flexible. This allows it to withstand stresses that can cause premature cracking and delamination.
  • Bond The bond strength of LMC usually will exceed the strength of the base concrete when applied to a properly prepared surface.
  • Durability The abrasion tests revealed that LMC outperformed conventional concrete by 19-32% depending upon the particular test performed. While early estimates predicted that LMC overlays may have a service life of 20 years, many of the original overlays constructed in 1974 are still in service today.
