Product Description

Basic Use
DCS Concrete Block Colors are all pure mineral pigments designed to be used specifically in cementitious materials. DCS Concrete Block Colors can be used for integral coloring of concrete block, concrete floors, walks, patios, driveways, concrete pavers; vertical precast, and poured in place concrete construction.

Composition and Materials
DCS Concrete Block Colors are composed of finely milled 95-99% minus 325 mesh inorganic synthetic and natural iron oxides. Depending upon the color, different combinations of natural yellow, red, brown and black iron oxides, and mineral blacks are blended with synthetic red, yellow, and black iron oxides, and chromium oxide greens. The natural iron oxides are dried, pulverized and classified from mineral earth iron oxides (in a range of 50-80% iron oxide).
The synthetic iron oxides are manufactured by different methods of calcination and precipitation of iron solutions or oxides under carefully controlled conditions. These processes produce roughly 93-99% pure iron oxides. DCS synthetic and natural inorganic iron oxides are inert, stable to all atmospheric conditions, ultra violet rays, alkalis and normal acid conditions. They are sunfast, limeproof and absolutely free of any water-soluble fillers.

Packaging
DCS Concrete Block Colors are packaged in 50-pound bags or in batch sized bags as needed.
