| Xypex
is a unique chemical treatment for the waterproofing, protection
and repair of concrete. XYPEX CONCENTRATE is the most chemically
active product within the Xypex Crystalline Waterproofing
System. When mixed with water, this light grey powder is
applied as a cementitious slurry coat to above ground or
below ground concrete, either as a single coat or as the
first of a two-coat application. It is also mixed in Dry-Pac
form for sealing strips at construction joints, or for the
repairing of cracks, faulty construction joints, and honeycombs.
Xypex prevents the penetration of water and other liquids
from any direction by causing a catalytic reaction that
produces a non-soluble crystalline formation within the
pores and capillary tracts of the concrete and cement-based
materials. |

M
P&P Mortar is a fast setting(not as quick as Xypex Patch
n' Plug),
non-shrink mortar for concrete repairs where waterproofing
is a requirement.
M P&P Mortar is used for sealing cracks to stop water
flows, and other defects in concrete. It is also used to
seal tie bolt holes. |
| Uses: |
| ·
·
·
·
· |
Use
as a high build mortar to repair defects in concrete.
Filling tie bolt holes in concrete pits and liquid containing
structures.
Fast setting repairs to pre-cast units.
Used in place of Xypex Patch n' Plug where the applicator
needs more 'working' time to apply the material. |

C-31 has been developed as an easy to use Bentonite/Clay
concrete waterstop material. Used in construction joints,
it reduces installation time and has the ability to swell
on contact with water and fill any voided area in the surrounding
concrete, eliminating the passage of water. The Kuniseal
expansion does not exert pressure on the surrounding concrete.
It is packaged in 2Lm strips @ 10 x per box. We do not
sell the strips individually but we do with the Adeka MC-2010MN. |
| Uses: |
·

To create its crystalline waterproofing effect, Xypex must
become an integral part of the concrete mass. It does so by
taking advantage of the natural and inherent characteristics
of concrete; concrete is both porous (capillary tract system)
and chemical in nature. By means of diffusion, the reactive
chemicals in Xypex use water as a migrating medium to enter
and travel through the capillary tracts in the concrete. This
process precipitates a chemical reaction between Xypex, moisture
and the natural chemical by-products of cement hydration (calcium
hydroxide, mineral salts, mineral oxides and unhydrated and
partially hydrated cement particles). The result is crystallization
and, ultimately, a non-soluble crystalline structure that
plugs the pores and capillary tracts of the concrete. In this
condition, the pores become discontinuous and the concrete
is thereby rendered impenetrable by water and other liquids
from any direction. The Xypex crystalline process will reactivate
whenever water is present. The
crystallization process that Xypex causes within the pores
and capillary tracts of concrete is illustrated below in
electron microscope photos taken by an independent research
team. |
1.
Concrete (Untreated)
A control sample of concrete was sheared through at 50 mm
below the top surface. The sheared face shows some of the
by-products of cement hydration with which Xypex reacts. Precipitated
calcium hydroxide together with cubic and rhombic particles
are visible. |
 |
2.
XYPEX Crystallization (Initiation)
Taken at 50 mm within a Xypex-treated concrete sample, this
photograph shows
the initiation of the Xypex crystalline reaction after Xypex
Concentrate was
applied to the surface. |
 |
3.
XYPEX Crystallization (Mature)
This photo
was taken 26 days after the application of Xypex Concentrate
at a depth
of 50 mm into the concrete sample. A dense, fully developed
crystalline structure
has formed within the capillary tracts of the concrete to
completely block the flow of water. |
