Product Description
FOX MIXAIR FM202 is a colourless air-entraining/plasticising admixture that generates micro air bubbles in cement-based mortars and concretes to improve workability and enhance freeze-thaw resistance. It meets the requirements of EN 934-2+A1:2012 Table 5 and EN 934-3+A1:2012 Table 2.
With a density of 1.00 gr/cm³, the product is preferred for repair mortars, concrete applications requiring improved water impermeability, and concretes that are difficult to place and compact. Compatible with all types of cement, FOX MIXAIR FM202 prevents segregation and slump loss in fresh concrete; it reduces water content, thereby lowering the water-cement ratio and contributing to strength. The dosage is 25–50 ml per 50 kg of cement.
Advantages
- Improves workability.
- Increases freeze-thaw resistance.
- Reduces water content, thereby lowering the water-cement ratio and contributing to strength.
- Prevents segregation and slump loss in fresh concrete.
- Facilitates compaction by vibration.
- Has a positive, albeit minor, contribution to the water permeability of concrete.
- Compatible with all types of cement.
Usage Areas
- In repair mortars
- In applications requiring concrete with improved water impermeability
- To improve workability in concretes that are difficult to place and compact
Application Steps
- 1
Preparing the Product
Shake the product thoroughly before use.

Adding to the Mix
Add the product to the cement-based mortar or concrete mix together with the mixing water or separately, and mix until a homogeneous distribution is achieved.
Important
Fly-ash-based cements, organic components in sand, and clay may affect product performance.
Important
Shake the product thoroughly before use.
Important
The product must be stored at room temperature between +5°C and +30°C, away from direct sunlight. It must be protected from frost.
Critical
Shelf life is 12 months from the date of manufacture. Opened packaging must be resealed and consumed within 1 week.
Important
For short-term storage, pallets must not be stacked more than 3 high and shipments must follow a first-in, first-out system. For long-term storage, pallets must not be stacked on top of each other.
Critical
Approaching storage and application areas with open flames is dangerous; areas must be ventilated.
Important
During application, appropriate work clothing, protective gloves, goggles, and a mask must be worn in accordance with occupational health and safety regulations.
Critical
Avoid contact with skin and eyes during storage and application. In case of contact, wash immediately with plenty of water and soap; if swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.
Important
Food and beverages must not be brought into application areas. Store out of reach of children.
