HYDROISOL-ITH-Crystal Producing Waterproofing Mortar

HYDROISOL-ITH® is a concrete waterproofing material that produces crystals by penetrating up to 90cm into the concrete after being applied to the concrete surface.
Its structure includes Portland cement, very finely processed sand and special active chemicals.

The active chemicals it contains penetrate deeply into the surface and enter into a catalytic reaction by reacting to moisture and hardened concrete components.

This reaction creates insoluble crystal formation in both the voids and capillary channels and cracks of the concrete, gradually making the concrete permanently impermeable to water.
It does not allow water and other chemical liquids to leak from any direction (negative+positive), even under 14 Bar high hydrostatic pressure. It provides active waterproofing and repairs the concrete throughout its life.

Hydroisol-ITH - Cement-based crystallized waterproofing material (single component) (TS EN 1504-2)
 
When HYDROISOL-ITH® coating is applied, chemicals in the form of aqueous solution seep through the gaps to the bottom of the concrete. Reactions involving concrete components take place in space. Thanks to the chemical reaction, water-insoluble needle-headed hydrate crystals are formed and fill the gaps, fine cracks and holes on the concrete.

The crystal formation process only continues with further contact with water until the gaps are completely closed. In this way, a strong and durable interlocking crystal network is created.

As a result, water tightness is achieved by preventing water from penetrating the concrete.
 

• It is resistant to 14 Bar high hydrostatic pressure. It does not lose its waterproofing properties under high hydrostatic pressure.
• It closes hairline cracks and capillary gaps up to 0.4 - 0.5mm in concrete. Full insulation is achieved after these cracks are closed with crystal.
• In case of water penetration into the concrete due to mechanical damage or any other reason, it heals the concrete by producing new crystals and repairing it itself.
• It provides diffusion transition properties in the concretes where it is applied. Thanks to this feature, the moisture in the concrete evaporates through the crystal gaps, allowing the wall to dry.
• It eliminates the disadvantages of superficial insulation materials by being used instead of cover type materials.
• Freezing of concrete is prevented and tensile strength increases.
• It integrates with the concrete on which it is applied.
• Prevents water leaks at cold joints
• It protects the iron in concrete from corrosion.
• It is non-toxic and can be used in drinking water tanks and facilities.
• It can be applied to the concrete surface from both positive and negative directions. Application can be made even in the most difficult sub-ceiling direction.
• It allows the concrete to breathe.
• It is resistant to aggressive chemicals (pH = 3 -14). It prevents the formation of ettringite in concrete.
• The ground should be dry before application
• It is not affected by damage or impact to the concrete structure.
• It does not require costly priming or smoothing on the surface before application.
• It does not require insulation, finishing or finishing the entire surface at corner and edge joints or between coverings.
• It can be applied to previously treated or new concrete.
• It does not require padding or protection when placing steel, mesh wire or other materials.
• It is currently reactive, becoming active whenever it comes into contact with water.
• Concrete can be treated with seawater, wastewater, oil, etc. Protects from chemical substances such as.
• Its application is lower cost than other methods.
• There is no distortion in the crystal structure. It is permanent and continuous.
• It minimizes cracks and shrinkage in concrete.

Vertical Application:
Consumption on vertical surfaces applied in two layers by brush or spraying is 1.3 kg/m². The second coat is applied after the first coat hardens.
Horizontal Application:
On horizontal surfaces applied in two layers by brush or spraying, the consumption is 1.0 kg/m².
Lean Concrete Application:
Consumption is 1.3 kg/m² in two coat application by brush or spraying. The second coat is applied after the first coat hardens. Concrete Surface Preparation:
Concrete surface before application; remove lime, paint, dust, tiles, cement mortar, dirt, oil, etc. with high pressure water jet, wet sandblasting or wire brush. must be cleared of substances. Cracked and porous concrete should be hollowed out until mechanically sound concrete is reached, and weak layers should be removed from the concrete block.

For crystal formation, surfaces and pores must be cleaned of dust and pre-wetted with clean water. Large gaps, cracks and pores should be filled with concrete mortar or repair mortar.
