Due to its simple and easy construction process and unique advantages, silane impregnation on concrete surface has been widely used in recent years on construction projects such as municipal bridge projects, nuclear power projects and seaport projects.
Advantages of silane impregnation
Silane impregnation is divided into liquid (CFS-0471 isobutyltriethoxysilane CAS 17980-47-1) and paste (CFS-213 isooctyltriethoxysilane CAS 35435-21-3), commonly used as a colorless and transparent liquid, sprayed on the surface of concrete to let it absorb naturally. Depending on the concrete grade can be dipped into to the surface layer of a few millimeters to more than a dozen millimeters. Its main advantages are.
1. Easy to construct, easy to control the construction period; silane impregnation can still be other coatings after painting, does not affect the adhesion.
2. It is water repellent, alkali resistant, acid rain resistant, UV resistant, and prevents cracking and peeling from freezing, thawing and weathering. Chemical bonding with the substrate, forming a long-term stable protective layer, extending the life of the concrete structure for more than 15-20 years, reducing the cost of subsequent maintenance.
3. Maintain the natural appearance of concrete and do not affect the surface color, prevent the growth of mold breeding caused by surface blackening and microorganisms, is conducive to the appearance of municipal buildings, structures and urban appearance improvement.
