Hydrophobizers are called aqueous (or organic) solutions of silicone components. The water repellent, due to water, or another "transporter", gets inside the material to be coated. There he creates a waterproof, with a permeable layer, protecting the structure from moisture.
APPLICATION FIELDS: During any construction, the degree of porosity of the material must be considered. The pores let out atmospheric moisture, which reacts with salts, expelling them to the outer layer of the facade. Moisture itself, left in the pores, under the influence of temperature fluctuations, destroys the structure of the material of the walls, changing their thermal characteristics. This leads to a significant reduction in the life of the building as a whole. A logical solution, in this case, will be the use of water repellents. These are substances with water-repellent properties. Coatings with a water repellent are not "afraid" of showers and snow.
Silicone hydrophobizer "TERMION Hydrophobizer"
Undoubtedly, the best hydrophobizators are organosilicon. Their unique protective properties are enhanced by excellent resistance to temperatures and chemical reagents. One of the main advantages of silicone hydrophobizators is a long service life.
"TERMION Hydrophobizer" is used when it is necessary to protect as much as possible from moisture such materials as: concrete and its varieties, stone and slate. Such treatment protects the surfaces from wetting in rain and snow, thereby preventing the destruction and formation of mold and the appearance of fungi.
Exceptional characteristics of hydrophobic impregnation, provide the possibility of applying coating on the surface of floors, warehouses, garages and pavement paths. Hydrophobizer significantly increases the strength characteristics of materials, preventing the appearance of cracks and dust.
Especially relevant is the use of a hydrophobic agent for impregnating concrete structures. This coating gives the material resistance to corrosion and severe frost, prevents dusting. The probability of moisture penetration into the concrete structure becomes practically zero, and this is one of the main criteria for the long service life of structures.
Any porous building material needs thorough protection. Hydrophobizers are needed for plastered surfaces, bricks, gypsum, concrete and varieties of natural stones.
In addition to protection against moisture ingress, TERMION Hydrophobizer provides materials with an increase in hardness and strength. Along with a multiple increase in water repellent properties, the resistance to dust and dirt increases.
The strongest influence of moisture is amenable to: facades of buildings, finishing of socles and pavement paths. After penetration of moisture into the structure of the material, the front side of the facade crackles, the thermal insulation properties of the walls decrease significantly, which leads to the appearance of mold and fungal formations.
The layer created by TERMION Hydrophobizer is about 20mm thick, it prevents penetration of any moisture. Microscopic particles cover "envelop" the pores of the material, creating the finest waterproof film. Since the thickness of the film itself is an order of magnitude smaller than the thickness of the capillaries (pores) in the section, the vapor permeability of the material remains unchanged. The wall remains "breathing", and this is one of the main conditions for a healthy microclimate in the house.
