Water-Proofing Technology

Our projects are consistently

completed on time and on
budget, delivering a top
quality, cost efficient and
functional product to our
clients.
 Executive Summary
• The Regulatory

- The IP Code defined in international standard IEC 60529 classifies the degrees
of protection provided against the intrusion of solid objects (including body
parts like hands and fingers), dust, accidental contact, and water in electrical
enclosures. It consists of the letters IP (for "international protection rating",
sometimes also interpreted as "ingress protection rating") followed by two
digits and an optional letter. The standard aims to provide users more detailed
information than marketing terms such as "waterproof".

 Availability and Cost

AVAILABILITY

The products are available through a global network of factories, regional distributors, dealers,
construction supply outlets and retail building supply outlets. Contact Xypex Chemical Corporation for
the name of the nearest supplier.

COST

Because it does not require surface preparation such as priming, leveling or protection during
backfilling, it is less costly to apply than most other waterproofing methods.

WARRANTY

It warrants that the products manufactured by it shall be free from material defects and will be
consistent with its normal high quality. Should any of the products be proven defective, the liability to
Xypex Corporation shall be limited to replacement of the products ex-factory. It makes no warranty as to
merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. This warranty is in lieu of all other warranties express
or implied. User shall determine the suitability of the product for the intended use and assume all risks
and liability in connection therewith.

MAINTENANCE

When properly installed by an applicator experienced in the installation of crystalline waterproofing, the
product is permanent and requires no maintenance.

TECHNICAL SERVICES

Technical assistance including more detailed information, product literature, test results, project lists,
assistance in preparing project specifications and arrangements for application supervision are
available by contacting us or the nearest distributor.

 Product Features
• Other Applications
- The material produced in dry
powder from crystalline
waterproofing products reduces
shrinkage and cracking to a
wide range of other concrete
elements. Crystalline
technology can improve the
performance of bagged mortar
mixes, stuccos, and concrete.
- The performance of precast
concrete panels, as well as
precast elements, such as
pipes, box culverts, and
manholes can also be
enhanced.
• As an Applied Product
- For the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration
(NASA) Neutral Buoyancy Tank,
a two-coat application of white
crystalline waterproofing was
applied to the 50,000 sq. ft. Lab
Tank. This tank is used to train
astronauts for space walks
necessary during construction
of the space station. The white
crystalline waterproofing
treatment was chosen as a
replacement for a white pool
paint finish because of its
longer lifespan and lower
maintenance requirements.
 Advantages
• Not just a surface coating - Not dependent upon continuity of
membrane for waterproofing action

• Seals hairline cracks up to 1/64 in. (0.4 mm)

• No surface priming or leveling required

• Cannot puncture, tear or come apart at the seams

• Does not require protection during back-filling or during

placement of steel, wire mesh or other materials

• Can be applied to moist or green concrete

• Less costly to apply than most other waterproofing methods

 Limitation
• The products must be stored dry at a minimum
temperature of 45°F (7°C). The shelf life is one
year when stored under proper conditions.

• It is not designed for use in expansion joints or

chronically moving cracks.
Applications
 Conclusion
Although concrete may appear to be a simple product to put together,
it requires a highly engineered approach. In an increasingly competitive
design and construction environment, where high performance
requirements, such as longer life cycles, more durable concrete, and
value engineering are expected, careful consideration must be paid to
basic requirements, such as the concrete, water, and cement ratio;
cementing materials, and more sophisticated chemical admixtures.

Effective use of crystalline waterproofing technology will reduce the

porosity and permeability of conventional concrete, and provide the high
performance advantages and benefits that building owners and design
professionals have come to rely upon in design and construction
projects.
