QUICSEAL 192 Crystalite is a chloride free chemical admixture supplied in the form of a grey powder and is added into concrete and mortars to impart self-sealing and waterproof properties.When added into concrete, the active chemicals reacts with moisture in concrete and the by-products of cement hydration which generates a non-soluble crystalline formation throughout the pores and capillary tracts of the concrete. These crystals formation fills all the pores and capillaries, resulting in a concrete impermeable to the migration of water or waterborne chemicals. During the curing stage, QUICSEAL 192 enhances the concrete’s hydration process by forming massive hydration crystal growth. QUICSEAL 192 waterproof concrete is unique in its ability to improve over time. The unreacted active ingredients will reactivate whenever the water seeps in, eventually blocking the capillary pores to prevent damage caused by water.
