Concrete is a porous material by nature, left untreated it will suffer damage and reduced service times. Protect your concrete from the day it is poured with AQUAFIN-IC Crystalline waterproofing solutions!
WHAT IS UNIQUE ABOUT THE AQUAFIN-IC ADMIX AQ 100P PRIMARY WATERPROOFING SERIES OF PRODUCTS?
The innovative Crystalline Technology within AQUAFIN ADMIX reacts with moisture, silicate, and free lime, a natural by- product of cement hydration process.
The reaction creates millions of nanocrystals which grow throughout the concrete matrix. As these crystals form, they fill and block the concrete’s capillary structure, protecting it from further water damage.
WHY DO AQUAFIN-IC ADMIX PRODUCTS WORK SO WELL?
AQUAFIN-IC ADMIX BECOMES A PERMANENT, INTEGRAL PART OF THE CONCRETE.
• Extremely resistant to high hydrostatic pressure
• Increases compressive strength and freeze-thaw resistance of concrete
• Protects reinforcement against corrosion
• Substantially reduces time and labor associated with applying traditional waterproof coatings
• NSF/ANSI Standard 61 certified for contact with potable water
• Negligible effect on slump, air entrainment, plasticizers and water reducers
• Permeability tested as per ACE (Army Corps of Engineers) CRD-C 48-92 up
00 psi (14 bar) = 460 ft (140 m) head pressure. Result: zero leakage
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS:
AQUAFIN-IC ADMIX Nano-crystalls blocking the capillary pore structure
• Water and waste water treatment plants
• Foundation walls
• Shotcrete and gunite applications
• Parking structures
• Concrete slabs and precast panels
• Underground water tanks
FULL INTEGRAL WATERPROOFING SYSTEM SOLUTION
By taking a complete systems approach, it is easy to seal the entire building envelope in an efficient manner. Combining waterproof concrete with the right joint details provides designers with multiple options of delivering dry structures
HOW ARE AQUAFIN-IC ADMIX PRODUCTS ADDED TO THE CONCRETE?
AQUAFIN-IC ADMIX comes in Powder and liquid, it allows easy integration at the batch plant, reduced risk of clumping during the mixing process, or added directly on-site.
