Xypex – Waterproofing products
Crystallization is a chemical process to fill the concrete capillaries to waterproof surfaces.
Concentrate
Xypex Concentrate is applied as a cementitious slurry to the surface of existing above or below-grade structures to waterproof and protect the concrete against high hydrostatic pressure and aggressive environments.
Modified
Xypex Modified can be applied as a second coat to chemically reinforce Concentrate, or as a single coat for the damp-proofing of exterior foundation walls.
Admix C-Series
Admix C-Series contains reactive chemicals at their prescribed dosage rates and provide comparable waterproofing and durability performance characteristics.
Advantages
- Resists extreme hydrostatic pressure
- Becomes an integral part of the substrate
- Can seal static hairline cracks up to 0.4 mm
- Can be applied to the positive or the negative side of the concrete surface
- Allows concrete to breathe
- Highlyresistant to aggressive chemicals
- Non-toxic / noVOCs
- Does not require a dry surface
- Cannot puncture, tear or come apart at the seams
- No costly surface priming or leveling prior to application
- Does not require sealing, overlapping and finishing of seams at corners, edges or between membranes
- Does not require protection during backfilling or during placement of steel, wire mesh or other materials
- Less costly to apply than most other methods
- Not subject to deterioration
- Permanent
- Available in white for enhanced illumination
- Added to the concrete at time of batching and therefore is not subject to climatic restraints
- Increases flexibility in construction scheduling
