Krystal 2600
Krystal 2600 is a 4th generation water resisting and hydrophobic crystalline waterproofing admixture for designing a watertight concrete in both below and above grade application. It ensures permanent impermeability of concrete and is used in places where surface applied waterproofing membranes are used for improved durability and longevity of concrete.
Description
Krystal 2600 is a 4th generation water resisting and hydrophobic crystalline waterproofing admixture for designing a watertight concrete in both below and above grade application. It ensures permanent impermeability of concrete and is used in places where surface applied waterproofing membranes are used for improved durability and longevity of concrete.
Features
- It is a Permeability Reducing Admixture for Hydrostatic Conditions (PRAH), thereby protecting the concrete against negative and positive water pressure
- Improvement of the resistance to freeze/thaw
- Reduces repair and maintenance costs
- Reduces permeability of the concrete.
- Helps to increase the compressive strength of concrete.
- Inorganic, nontoxic, zero VOC (0%).
- Self-seals hairline cracks up to 0.6mm.
- Protects concrete against chemical attack and corrosion of reinforcing steel.
- Excellent resistance to waterborne chemicals.
- Protection against sewage and industrial wastes.
- Unlike coating, Krystal 2600 when added to concrete during mixing becomes an integral part of the concrete for optimum performance
- Suitable for (CEM I,II,III) grade binder used in concreting
Application Areas
Krystal 2600 can be applied to all concrete where water penetration should be permanently prevented such as Foundations, Sewage treatment plants, Tunnels, and subway systems, Underground structures, Dams, Pre-cast structures, Swimming pools, and reservoirs, Plastering of exterior walls, Bridge decks, columns beams, Roof and podium slabs and any other areas where high hydrostatic pressure is present.
