Principle and principle of water-proof concrete

Water resistant concrete is a concrete with a specific waterproofing representative included. Its major function is to enhance the thickness and impermeability of cement by changing the microstructure of cement and lowering the number and size of capillary pores. Normally, waterproof concrete will include water-proof products such as salt silicate and potassium silicate throughout the production process. These products will certainly create a water-insoluble crystal in the hydration response, filling the pores in the concrete and making it water-proof.

Advantages and negative aspects of waterproof concrete

Advantages

Hassle-free building: Using water-proof cement resembles that of normal cement, and no extra specialist abilities are needed.

Inexpensive: Compared with other high-end water-proof products, the price of waterproof cement is much more cost effective and appropriate for large-scale waterproof tasks.

Good durability: The water resistant concrete layer, after appropriate building, can maintain its waterproofness for a long period of time and is challenging to age.

Commonly used: Appropriate for cellars, roof coverings, commodes, pool and other scenes.

Negative aspects

Limitations: Waterproof concrete is generally used for moderate to moderate water infiltration issues. For severe water pressure and lasting immersion environments, the impact may not be comparable to professional waterproof layers.

High building requirements: Building and construction needs to be carried out strictly according to the directions or else the predicted result might not be accomplished.

High upkeep needs: Once the waterproof layer is damaged, repair is much more challenging.
