PC-Sealcoat® Penetration

Penetrating Waterproofing compound for positive & negative water presser

PACKAGING

PC-Sealcoat® Penetration Available in 20 kg drums

PC-sealcoat® Penetration is a very highly built integral waterproofing compound that Waterproofs and protects concrete in-depth permanently. It consists of specialty chemical compositions of active chemicals, which build a strong barrier against waterpenetrating concrete surfaces. needs only to be mixed with water before application. When applied to a concrete surface, the active chemicals react with moisture and the by-products of cement hydration to cause a catalytic reaction that generates an insoluble, crystalline structure.

These crystals penetration depth in concrete up to 1000 mm , fills the pores, and minor shrinkage cracks up to 500 microns in the concrete to prevent further water ingress under pressure. It’s effective for positive and negative water pressure. In addition to waterproofing the structure, it protects concrete against seawater, wastewater, aggressive ground water, and many other chemical solutions. PC-Sealcoat® Penetration is approved for use in contact with potable water and is therefore suitable for use in water storage tanks, reservoirs, water treatment plants, etc.

APPLICATION AREA

For waterproofing structures and objects that are in contact with water. For indoor and outdoor use. It is used for waterproofing: the external and internal walls of
Basement retaining walls
Parking structures
Concrete slabs (floor/roof/balcony, etc.)
Tunnels and subway systems
Construction joints
Foundations
Water retaining structures
Underground vaults
Swimming pools
Sewage and water treatment plants
Channels
Reservoirs
Bridges, dams and roads.

USES

Imparts permeability to water and dampness to coated surfaces Gives surfaces that are efflorescence-free, moss-resistant and resistant to fungus growth.
Maintains the breathing properties of concrete, Penetrate 1000 MM depth in concrete seal permanently.
Due to excellent adhesion and thixotropic properties, vertical and inclined surfaces can be easy applied.
Possesses high flexural and tensile strengths and provides for thermal movements.
Is free of chlorides, water-soluble halogens and corrosive substances.
System protects cementitious substrates against freeze-thaw cycles.
Seals hairline and shrinkage cracks up top 500 microns.
Can be applied from either the positive or negative side.
Protects embedded steel

MIXING

Mix in a clean container 6.5- 7.5 liters of water and 25 kg of dry mix PC-Sealcoat® Penetration. Slowly pour the powder into the water, stirring continuously with an electric drill with a mixing nozzle, until a homogeneous solution is obtained without lumps. It is not recommended to mix the solution manually. The resulting solution is allowed to stand for at least 5 minutes. After repeated mixing, the product is ready to use too fast drying of the waterproofing solution. Possible excess water is
removed from the surface with a sponge or compressed air.

SURFACE PREPARATION

Before applying waterproofing, make sure that the base is sufficiently maintained. The surfaces to be treated must be dry, clean, strong, dense and not subject to deformation. The surface of the base must be dust-free and free of cement milk, rust, oils, paint residues, putty, bitumen, and anything else that may interfere with the good adhesion of PC-Sealcoat® Penetration solution to the base. Flimsy and loose areas of the base must be removed mechanically, using sandblasting or pressurized water, and repaired with suitable repair solutions. Cracks in the base must be stitched and repaired with suitable repair solutions. Pre-leveling of the bases, if necessary, should be performed at least 14 days before applying waterproofing. Absorbent surfaces (cement screeds and plaster, concrete, etc.) must be moistened with clean cold water using a spray gun or a wet sponge before applying PC-Sealcoat® Penetration. This will prevent the waterproofing solution from drying out too quickly. Possible excess water from the surface is removed with a sponge or compressed air.

APPLYING THE COMPOSITION

Apply PC-Sealcoat® Penetration solution using a brush or a smooth stainless-steel spatula. Apply the material in two cross layers with a total thickness of not less than 1.5 mm and not more than 4 mm. The second layer is applied after the first layer has dried, after about 5 to 6 hours, but not more than 24 hours. It is necessary to carefully process the corners and fillets. During setting and drying of the solution PCSealcoat® Penetration no additional wetting of the waterproofing surface is required.

RECOMMENDED APPLICATIONS

Work should be performed at a base and ambient temperature of +6 °C to +40 °C. To avoid shrinkage and dryness. Materials should be stored under 45 °C non exposed storage.
