AQUAMAT-ADMIX is an admixture in powder from consisting of cement and special active chemicals, which react with moisture and free lime in fresh concrete creating insoluble crystalline compounds. These crystals seal capillary shrinkage cracks inside concrete, thus protecting against penetration of water under strong hydrostatics pressure. Offers the following advantages:
- Water impremeability against water pressure from both positive and negative side.
- Significant reduction of the capillary absorption of water.
- Permanently active for the life of the structure-therefore, it continuously protects the construction from any water penetration.
- Ability to seal hairline cracks up to 0,4 mm wide, even if they appear after the setting of concrete.
- Not affecting vapor permeability of the concrete element.
- Protection of the steel of reinforced concrete from corrosion.
- No air-entraining action.
- Free of chlorides and other corrosive ingredients.
- Compatibility with all kinds of Portland cement.
AQUMAT-ADMIX is suitable for any type of concrete element that is constantly or temporarily in contact with water, such as foundations, basements, water tanks, tunnels, canals, sewage and wastewater treatment tanks, swimming pools, etc.
