ANTIPOR® aqua proof
Plasticizer with hydrophobing effects
Item No. 2340
FIELDS OF APPLICATION
ANTIPOR® aqua proof is a plasticizer for producing manufactured concrete products. It is suitable for both manufacturing wetcast elements and fabricating paving blocks.
ANTIPOR® aqua proof generates a hydrophobic concrete structure during the production process.
As a result the hardened concrete is prevented from water penetration. Thereby the occurrence of efflorescence is minimised and the frost resistance is significantly improved.
ANTIPOR® aqua proof improves concrete's compaction and attains a homogeneous structure. In paving block productions ANTIPOR® aqua proof minimises sticking to the ram and attains a closed vertical structure.
Additionally ANTIPOR® aqua proof increases the strength development and the colour brilliance of coloured concrete significantly.
WORKING PRINCIPLE
ANTIPOR® aqua proof penetrates the concrete structure, seals its capillary sub-surface and thereby reduces its water absorption ability. Having this properties concrete is protected from efflorescence and frost damages.
DOSAGE | APPLICATION QUANTITY
Recommended dosage range 0.8 – 2.1 mass-% of the cement content.
