    X-Pruf CrystalMixLiquid crystall ine waterproofing additive for concreteProduct DescriptionX-Pruf CrystalMix is a unique liquid crystalline additive forconcrete that forms pore blocking crystal fibers whichpermanently waterproof treated concrete.

    Advantages

    Resists extreme positive and negative hydrostatic

    pressure

    Increases concrete strength

    Can seal cracks up to 1/64 (0.4mm)

    Increases freeze/thaw resistance of concrete

    Easy to dispense liquid

    Non toxic

    Chloride free

    Uses Any concrete mix requiring waterproofing

    Tunnels and subway systems

    Marine structures

    Bridges

    Foundations

    Basements and elevator pits

    Water and wastewater structures

    Parking structures Swimming pools

    DosageEnsure that the water/cement ratio of the concrete doesnot exceed 0.55 before X-Pruf CrystalMix is added.

    Use 0.2 gallons per 100lb (1.7L per 100kg) cement

    at water/cement ratios of 0.45 or lower.

    Use 0.3 gallons per 100lb (2.5L per 100kg) cement

    at water/cement ratios of 0.45 to 0.55.

    Packaging6 gallon (22.7L) jug or 240 gallon (908L) bulk container.

    Laboratory Test Data

    The above result was obtained from a constantworkability mix containing 500lb/yd (300 kg/m) ofType 1 Portland cement with a 0.53 water/cement ratio

    mix using 3% of X-Pruf CrystalMix by weight of cement.A 6% strength increase at 28 days was also observed.Strength increases can be as high as 15% at constantwater cement ratio.

    Installation GuidelinesBatchingStir X-Pruf CrystalMix prior to use to ensure that theproduct is well dispersed. Concrete should be placed nolater than 45 minutes after the addition of X-PrufCrystalMix. Use a retarder for mix designs containing

    Type II/V or Type III Portland Cement.

    X-Pruf CrystalMix can be added to the batching water ordirect into the concrete mixer at the batch plant or atsite.

    Carrying out trial mixes under conditions to determinesetting time and strength of the concrete isrecommended. Correct mix design is essential to achievea watertight concrete.

    Before application, test for compatibility with any other

    admixtures to be used in the mix.

    CuringCure concrete containing X-Pruf CrystalMix in accordancwith the recommendations in the latest edition of the ACManual of Concrete Practice.

    StorageProtect from freezing and contamination. Shelf life inunopened, original containers is 12 months when storedunder shade at between 40 and 86F (4 to 30C).

    Limitations

    Concrete should be placed no later than 45 minutes aftethe addition of X-Pruf CrystalMix.The water/cement (w/c) ratio of the concrete must notexceed 0.55.Do not use at concrete temperatures below 40F (4C)
