FEATURES
Water-repellent agent Aquaproof-1 – water solution of potassium methylsiliconate. Aquaproof-1 Standard is ready to use liquid. Aquaproof-1 Concentrate and Superconcentrate require dilution with water, depending on the tasks.
APPLICATIONS
Surface and volume hydrophobization construction materials:
Brick, Concrete, Foam concrete, Coquina, Plaster, Limestone, Asbestos products, Slate, Tile, Gypsum fiber boards, Marble.
ADVANTAGES
- Aquaproof-1 is a plasticizer of II, III, IV groups and air-entraining admixture preparing the concrete solutions
- Reduces the water absorption up to 1,5 times
- Provides natural ventilation of the buildings
- Preserves the appearance of the material
- Prevents the contamination of the textured layer
- Prolongs the service life of the buildings up to 3 – 5 times
- Prevents the decreasing of the heat-insulating properties of the material
- Ensures sustainability to ultraviolet rays and infrared
- Provides increasing the frost resistance of the buildings up to 2 – 3 times
- Provides increasing the corrosion resistance up to 1,5 – 2 times
- Protects against efflorescence occurrence
- Protects against the destructive action of mosses and lichens
