Abstract
The surface deactivating composition for concrete or mortar comprising a retardant, water and if desired a rheology modifying agent of the HASE type (emulsion, soluble in alkali, of a polymer with hydrophobic modification), characterized in that the retardant is a carboxylic acid and in that the concentration of HASE is greater than or equal to 0.5% by weight. The process of application consists in applying this deactivating composition in proportions of the order of 0.25±0.05 liter per square meter of said surface, then washing with water this surface after a predetermined period.
