Description
Organosilicon compounds have a long track record as water-repellent agents.
They feature excellent water repellency without significantly impairing water-vapor permeability, and long durability, which stems from silanes’ high resistance to external influences such as UV radiation, thermal stress, aggressive substances, and microbes. This is due to extremely stable covalent bonds between the silane and the silicate matrix of the pores and capillary walls in the concrete.
WACKER offers a broad portfolio of products oriented to fulfill customer’s needs for not only conventional formulations but also for modern hydrophobic agents formulated for example as a cream. This will be shown during this webinar.
