Superior Water RepellencyEngineered with a proprietary polysiloxane blend, this hydrophobic agent delivers outstanding water repellency to concrete, plasters, and gypsum-based materials. By preventing moisture ingress, it helps prolong the life and integrity of construction elements. Its fine granular form ensures even distribution within mixtures for consistent performance across projects.
High Compatibility and SafetyThis additive is compatible with Portland cement and gypsum, making it versatile for various construction needs. It is non-toxic under normal conditions, odorless, and safe to handle, with a flash point exceeding 250C. Its chloride content is below 0.1%, which means minimal impact on corrosion-sensitive reinforcements.
Convenient Application and StorageSupplied as a white, free-flowing powder, this hydrophobic agent can be added directly to dry mixes or integrated during processing. It remains effective when stored at room temperature for up to twelve months, provided it is kept sealed in original packaging. Each bag is lined with PE to ensure maximum product integrity during storage and transportation.
FAQ's of Hydrophobic Agent (Additives):
Q: How should the hydrophobic agent be incorporated into construction mixtures?
A: This hydrophobic agent can be added directly to dry cement, gypsum, or construction material mixes. Alternatively, it may be dispersed during the mixing process according to your specific formulation guidelines for optimal results.
Q: What benefits does this additive provide in construction materials?
A: The primary benefit is its excellent hydrophobic performance, which greatly improves water repellency. This helps protect structures from moisture damage, prolonging their durability and reducing maintenance requirements.
Q: Where is this hydrophobic agent typically used?
A: It is widely used in industrial applications, particularly in the formulation of water-repellent cement, gypsum plasters, mortars, and concrete products. Its compatibility with common construction materials makes it suitable for a broad range of building projects.
Q: When should the product be used within the mixing process?
A: For best results, the agent should be mixed in with the dry ingredients before the addition of water or any wet components. This ensures even distribution throughout the mixture and maximizes hydrophobic effectiveness.
Q: What storage conditions are recommended for this product?
A: Store the hydrophobic agent at room temperature in its original, sealed 25 kg paper bag with PE inner liner. Proper storage will maintain product quality and ensure a shelf life of up to twelve months.
Q: Is the hydrophobic agent toxic or hazardous to handle?
A: No, the product is non-toxic under normal industrial usage conditions, odorless, and not classified as poisonous. It features a high flash point, making it safe to handle in typical construction environments.
Q: What is its physical appearance and does it affect mixture quality?
A: It appears as a fine, white, odorless powder. Its fine granular texture enables even dispersal and does not alter the color or aesthetics of your final construction products.
