Crystalline Waterproofing Admix for Concrete
CW401-INGUARD is a high-performance crystalline admixture designed capillary water-proofing system for concrete structures even at high hydrostatic pressure by minimizing porosity permanently sealing pores and micro-cracks by crystal forming pore blocking /organic pore plugging under pressure to protect concrete against water penetration. INGUARD can be added to the concrete during batching /mixing intended to achieve enhanced resistance to water migration by structurally integral protection. INGUARD Waterproofer is suitable for all applications where resistance to water damage is necessary including external rendering and pointing, roof areas, and structures below ground level. INGUARD does not change the rheology of concrete and improves mechanical performance.
Features
- Avoids water condensation. it allows the passage of air. Resistant to aggressive chemicals
- Non-toxic and recommended for potable water tanks.
- Increase concrete strength and lifetime
- Barrier against the penetration of water and chemical agents from any direction
- Becomes an integral part of the concrete
- Negligible influence on air entrainment
- Not a vapor barrier – allows concrete to breathe
- No corrosive effect on reinforcing metal
Application
- Retaining walls and Precast concrete elements.
- External or basement renderings
- Water treatment plant Elevator pits
- Tanks, Tunnels, Dams
- Potable water tanks and waste water tanks
- Swimming pools and water features
