Liquid Crystalline Waterproofing Additive for Concrete

[/heading][vc_column_text]

Description:

AQUAFIN-IC ADMIX is a state-of-the crystalline waterproofing admixture available in liquid and powder form. The chemistry within the AQUAFIN-IC ADMIX reacts with moisture, silicate and free lime in the concrete, creating millions of insoluble crystalline fibers, which fill the pores, capillary tracts and minor shrinkage cracks within the concrete. Passage of water through the concrete, either from the positive or negative water pressure side is permanently blocked and the reinforcement protected from corrosion. AQUAFIN-IC ADMIX can be added to the concrete mix at the time of batching or at the job site to a ready mix truck with full mixing capabilities.

Working Principle:

• During concrete hardening AQUAFIN-IC ADMIX forms millions of fine crystalline fibers (nanocrystals) inside the capillary pores
• Crystalline fibers reduce the pore diameter, thus blocking the flow of water through the capillary voids
• Treated concrete is watertight

Benefits:

• Unlike powder additives, NO RISK of clumping
• Ready to use
• Easy mixing, minimal influence on mix design
• Resists extreme hydrostatic pressures
• Waterproofs concrete even at high w/c ratios
• Improves compressive strength, chemical and abrasion resistance
• NSF/ANSI Standard 61 certified for contact with potable water
• Self sealing effect up to 1/64″ (0.4 mm) crack width.

Typical Applications:

• Any concrete mix requiring waterproofing ( Water Impermable) capabilities
• Such as : Foundations,Precast Structures, Swimming pool, Parking Structures, Sewage and water treatment plants,Underground vaults, reservoirs,German floor, Suspended slabs, cantilevers,plaster work, roof gutters etc.

Coverage:

• One bucket will waterproof 30 bags of cement
• 5 cubic @ 300kg OPC per cubic
• An equivalent of 5 cubic Metre at 1.2.4
• An equivalent of 50m2 at 100MM slab thickness
