XYPEX Concentrate  waterproofing Treatments were applied to the cracks in the concrete to stop the ingress of water. The active chemicals diffuse into the substrate and react with moisture and the constituents of hardened concrete to cause a catalytic reaction.

 

This reaction generates a non-soluble crystalline formation throughout the pores and capillary tracts of the concrete, as well as cracks, permanently sealing the concrete and preventing the penetration of water and other liquids from any direction, even under high hydrostatic pressure. Xypex Concentrate is also mixed in a Dry-Pac form for sealing strips at construction joints, or for the repairing of leaking cracks, faulty construction joints and other defects. 

 

Xypex is constantly active whenever there is water present, which gives it the ability to self heal cracks 0.4 mm or larger.
