Smooth-On's duoMatrix™ Systems enhance the physical properties of cementitious and alpha gypsum materials.

duoMatrix™-G is a polymer additive system for gypsum. Castings are stronger, lighter, weather resistant and can be demolded four times faster with Matrix™‑G. It allows adding of metal powders and other fillers to simulate the look of metal, stone and other facades. Matrix™‑G has a flame rating of UL-94V-O and meets ASTM E-84, Class A (or 1) flame rating for building materials. It can be pigmented and painted.

duoMatrix™ NEO is a polymer modified gypsum. DuoMatrix™ NEO's dry components (PART A) are "pre-measured" for easy mixing with PART B - latex liquid. Easy 2:1 by volume mix ratio means no scale is required. UL‑94V‑O and ASTM E‑84, Class A (or 1) flame rated

duoMatrix™-C is a polymer additive for modifying concrete and enhances physical and performance characteristics of cementitious materials such as portland cements and mortars. Freeze/thaw, chemical and UV resistance are also enhanced, and duoMatrix™‑C also eliminates the usual 7‑day post cure.
