WATERPROOFING and DAMPROOFING

Anti-Hydro

A non-corrosive admixture that has been widely used since 1904 to Integrally Waterproof Concrete and increase Workability, Strength, Hardness, and Durability

"Anti-Hydro " is a combination of organic and inorganic chemicals that reacts with portland cement to produce more complete hydration. Water requirements, bleed water and shrinkage are reduced. The increased hydration provides internal curing and a much harder cement paste. "Anti-Hydro " increases the early and ultimate strength of concrete. These combined reactions produce impermeable concrete that is hard and non-dusting.

Added into the concrete, Anti-Hydro produces dense, durable, waterproof

concrete

How "Anti-Hydro" ® Works:

"Anti-Hydro" ® works with any product containing Portland cement (concrete, mortar mix, stucco, & tile grout) - in other words, all your work!

You add "Anti-Hydro" ® to your mix and follow our easy special instructions.

"Anti-Hydro" ® will do two things when you add it to your concrete, tile grout, mortar or stucco:

1. "Anti-Hydro" ® will raise the percentage of hydration of this mix (the amount of cement that actually chemically reacts with the water) from the usual 65% to 70% range to approximately 95%.

2. This is a significant change to the final properties of the product which yields denser, harder material which is impermeable to water and a near total vapor barrier as well.

"Anti-Hydro" ® is a high-range accelerator too. This means that the concrete mix will harden far faster than normal and that means when it’s used in winter it will harden before it freezes. And, it allows for far faster installation… more control over your work in less time.

•WaterproofingComplete waterproofing protection for concrete, masonry, stucco, precast concrete, structural concrete, swimming pools, tanks, basements, chimneys, cement pargeting, patching & underground utility work

•Cold Weather ProtectionKeeps concrete & mortar from freezing, sets quickly

•High StrengthDramatically increases strength

•Hardening & DensifyingOver 30% harder and denser

•Water Vapor ControlReduces All Vapor Transmission up to 85%

•Improved BondingBonds new concrete – the bond is stronger than the concrete itself

•Increased Abrasion ResistanceResists scratches, gouges and wear due to increased hardness

5 or 10 Year Maintenance Guarantee

Because of the way Anti-Hydro affects the properties of concrete, an optional waterproofing warranty is offered for your project. Anti-Hydro field supervision is required but this assures that the job is done right.
