Rockbond Bio-Lease

Rockbond 7.30 Bio-Lease is an environmentally friendly, sustainably produced general purpose release agent. The active ingredient is from a vegetable source and contains fatty acids and these weak acids react slowly with the alkalies in cement which produces water-insoluble soaps. Bio-Lease uses NZ made 100% Biodiesel as a carrier, which is manufactured using only vegetable-based oils, is fully biodegradable and is not aqua-toxic.

When applied at the recommended dosage, 7.30 leaves a dry film on the surface of the concrete, which becomes the release agent.
