Formulating waterproofing mortars and coatings for water reservoirs, swimming pools, water and sewage treatment plants.
Repairing of spalled, porous or honey combed concrete surfaces in precast, beams and foundations.
As a modifying polymer in combination with FARCOTEK 50 for improved performance and adhesion properties on concrete and renders.

Advantages

Improved adhesion to cementitious substrates and previously poured concrete without any reinforcement.
Reduce shrinkage thus improve crack resistance.
Increased flexibility and resistance to deicing salts and freeze-thaw cycles.

Additional Information

Non-toxic. Can be used with potable water. Increases mortar tensile and flexural strength.
