- It disrupts the capillary network within the concrete mass which could conduct water through concrete.
- It significantly reduces water demand to bring down W/C ratio in the range of 0.45 which generally represents a second concrete.
In Mortar
- It reduces the possibility of shrinkage cracks.
- It improves adhesive and tensile properties of mortar.
Caution A good water proof concrete or plaster is achieved by good construction practices. Precaution taken to achieve the goals include.
- Proper mix design.
- Selection of good aggregates, sand and cement.
- Adhering to W/C ratio in the range of 0.45
- Proper mixing, placing and curing.
- Use of a good integral water proofer.
