What is waterproofing?

penetrating Waterproofing provides watertight concrete structures.This group includes the preparations necessary for the protection of the porous material from absorbing moisture.The principle of operation is based on the penetration of the upper layer of porous material of the insulating substance, which is insoluble.He fills all pores and displaces the liquid.Input of the specific component of the solution makes it possible to carry out various modifications of the properties of the processed material.For example:

  • Prevents corrosion on the reinforcement of reinforced concrete foundation;
  • Restores the technical properties of old concrete;
  • Combats the appearance of mold and mildew;
  • Increases chemical resistance of the material.

apply materials such as at the beginning of construction, as well as in the repair and restoration of structures.Often they are used for waterproofing in buildings that have already been exploited.Material perfectly keeps back pressure, which allows it to be used successfully for coating the inside.Crystalline waterproofing education overlap the path of moisture deep into the concrete and, at the same time, do not block the free movement of air, allowing it to "breathe".Penetrating waterproofing of the foundation allows the base perfectly withstand aggressive environmental influences.

Tip!During the construction or repair is required to do the waterproofing of the foundation.

Injection waterproofing and its types

variation of penetrating the insulation is injection waterproofing (liquid), which is necessary for reliable protection of the treated surface from the damaging action of moisture.It has good technical qualities and durability.Liquid waterproofing produces protection not only against moisture, but also by changes in temperature, corrosion and retain heat in the room.In general, a liquid rubber or water glass acts as the injection waterproofing.

liquid rubber has the following qualities:

  • High flexibility and elasticity;
  • Easy to apply;
  • Environmentally friendly;
  • has good adhesion;
  • Easily repaired.

Apply it with special equipment and special skills process does not require a uniform distribution of the material needed.Actively used for treating roofs, tunnels, sewers, pools.The surface of the applied waterproofing is flat and smooth, no seams on it.

Sodium silicate solution is a potassium silicate and sodium.He domeshivaetsya in concrete, making it a better performance:

  • becomes harder;
  • best resistance to mechanical damage;
  • reduced the level of moisture absorption.

no need to use any equipment for its use.You just stick to proportions, mixing concrete and water glass.It is also possible to use it in its purest form.Liquid crystal protects against corrosion and failure of the wind, temperature, sunshine and so on.

Tip!Liquid glass protects the surface for five years.After this time, the waterproofing treatment is repeated.

Contraindications

Injection materials, as well as any other kind of have their contraindications and recommendations for use.Adhere to these recommendations, it is necessary to ensure that the quality of all work performed was at a high level, and provides a reliable and long-lasting protection.Consider these rules:

  • If the temperature is below 5 degrees, and the next 24 hours is expected frost, the waterproofing should not be applied;
  • Do not apply on a surface covered with frost or ice;
  • wets the surface must be carefully, but in any case not to allow the formation of puddles;
  • Do not apply on gypsum and limestone.

Important!All work with the material you need to perform in rubber gloves.

Penetrating waterproofing for masonry and foundation is an important material in the construction and repair.Whatever type of insulation you choose, it should be remembered that only by adhering to all rules and regulations, you can count on a successful and quality work.None of the material, no matter how good he was not, does not give high quality protection foundation or walls, if the waterproofing was applied to the breach process.
