Waterproofing polymer and admixture is a crucial component to ensure watertight structures. Waterproofing polymers, often acrylic or latex-based, are added to cement to be used as coating or directly mixed into concrete to create a water-resistant layer. These polymers improve adhesion, flexibility, and overall resistance to water ingress.
Admixtures, on the other hand, are substances added to concrete during mixing to alter its properties. Waterproofing admixtures contain hydrophobic agents that repel water, reducing permeability. Together, these additives create a robust defense against water damage, mitigating the risk of corrosion, cracks, and other issues associated with moisture infiltration in construction projects.
