PENETRON Crystalline Waterproofing
A surface-applied, integral crystalline waterproofing material, PENETRON is used for waterproofing and chemical protection at both above and below ground level.
A surface-applied, integral crystalline waterproofing material, PENETRON is used for waterproofing and chemical protection at both above and below ground level. PENETRON is applied by brush or spray to either the positive or the negative side of the concrete and in the presence of moisture penetrates deeply into the structure. The ensuing chemical reaction fills microcracks, pores and capillaries with an insoluble crystalline formation, which prevents water and water-borne chemicals from entering, even under high hydrostatic pressure. Cracks that develop during the lifetime of the concrete are self-healed by PENETRON, resulting in permanent concrete protection.
Advantages:
- Zero VOC - PENETRON powdered products contain zero volatile organic compounds and are safe for use both outdoors and in confined indoor spaces.
- Resists chemical attack (pH 3-11 constant contact, pH 2-12 intermittent contact) and provides a range of protection from freeze/thaw cycles, aggressive subsoil waters, seawater, carbonates, chlorides, sulfates and nitrates.
- Can be applied to moist or “green” concrete. Protects embedded steel (reinforcing steel and wire mesh).
- Non-toxic (NSF/ANSI 61 certified for potable water applications).
- Increases concrete’s compressive strength.
- Will not come apart at the seams, tear or be punctured.
- Does not require protection during backfilling, placement of steel or wire mesh, and other common procedures.
- Becomes an integral part of the concrete.
- Can be applied to all structurally sound concrete– new or old.
- Penetrates deeply and seals concrete’s capillary tracts and shrinkage cracks.
- Can be applied from either the positive or negative side.
- Waterproofing and chemical-resistance properties remain intact even if the surface is damaged.
- Completely effective against high hydrostatic pressure.
- More effective overall and less costly than hydrolytic membrane or clay panel systems.
- Easy to apply, labor-cost effective
- Seals hairline and shrinkage cracks up to 1/51” (0.5 mm).
