More than forty years ago, demonstrating some brilliant ingenuity, a group of chemists at ÃÜÌÒÊÓƵ Chemical Corporation developed a technology that would change the way concrete is protected from intrusive liquids.
What is ÃÜÌÒÊÓƵ Crystalline Technology?
Crystalline Difference - ÃÜÌÒÊÓƵBasic to the development of ÃÜÌÒÊÓƵ Crystalline Technology was a thorough understanding of concrete's chemical and physical makeup. Concrete is porous. Its tunnel-like capillaries are a natural part of its mass, and permit the passage of water and other liquids. Researchers at ÃÜÌÒÊÓƵ recognized the opportunity for a chemical treatment that would fill these capillaries to prevent the penetration of water and other liquids from any direction. By means of diffusion, the reactive chemicals in ÃÜÌÒÊÓƵ products use water as a migrating medium to enter and travel down the capillaries of the concrete. This process precipitates a chemical reaction between ÃÜÌÒÊÓƵ, moisture and the by-products of cement hydration, forming a new non-soluble crystalline structure. This integral structure fills the capillary tracts rendering the concrete waterproof.
The fact that ÃÜÌÒÊÓƵ Crystalline Technology is now specified and used on thousands of diverse waterproofing projects around the globe is a testament to the original concept. Crystalline waterproofing technology was an idea that grew because ÃÜÌÒÊÓƵ chemists questioned what concrete was all about and found a way to make it better. Today, we continue the tradition.
