#ADMIX-C1-050
Xypex is a unique chemical treatment for the waterproofing, protection and improvement of concrete. Xypex Admix C-1000 is added to the concrete mix at the time of batching. Xypex Admix C-1000 consists of Portland Cement, very fine treated silica sand and various active proprietary chemicals. These active chemicals react with the moisture in fresh concrete and with the by-products of cement hydration to cause a catalytic reaction which generates a non-soluble crystalline formation throughout the pores and capillary tracts of the concrete. Thus the concrete becomes permanently sealed against the penetration of water or liquids from any direction. The concrete is also protected from deterioration due to harsh environmental conditions.
- Resists extreme hydrostatic pressure from either positive or negative surface of the concrete
- Becomes an intefral part of the substrate
- Highly resistant to aggressive chemicals
- Can seal static hairline cracks up to 0.4 mm
- Allows concrete to breathe
- Non-toxic
- Less costly to apply than most other methods
- Permanent
- Added to the concrete at time of batching and therefore is not subject to climatic restraints
- Increases flexability in construction scheduling
