DRYCON - Cementitious
Crystalline Waterproofing Kit |
DRYCON is a waterproofing kit,
containing portland cement, finely graded mineral fillers, and chemical
additives. The contents of the kit are mixed with a measured amount of
water to produce a creamy paste, or slurry. The slurry is brushed or
sprayed into the surface of the masonry or concrete. The surface to be
treated must be dampened so that the active chemicals in DRYCON
will be drawn into the pores.
DRYCON is a prepackaged, chemically
active cementitious composition designed to protect masonry or concrete
from water induced chemical attack, and to stop the passage of water
through the material. A two coat application of DRYCON is suitable
for most interior below grade waterproofing applications. Two coats of
DRYCON will withstand hydrostatic pressures up to 7 psi (16 ft. of
water, 4.9 m), while three coats provide protection to 45 psi (103.8 ft,
31.6 m).
DRYCON is not a paint. Although
DRYCON forms a decorative, non-flammable, inorganic surface for
masonry or concrete, and although it is applied with a brush or spray
machine, it is not a paint.
DRYCON is used to prevent seepage of water through masonry/concrete
under pressure. |

Advantages of DRYCON |
 | Double waterproofing protection by
chemically sealing the internal structure of the masonry or concrete as
well as sealing the surface with a dense, watertight cement coating.
|
| Chemically interacts beneath the
surface to neutralize salts that cause efflorescence. |
| Cementitious material, offering
indefinite life expectancy and superior adhesion characteristics. |
| Integrates with the substrate and seals
so effectively that seepage can be stopped through interior application,
eliminating costly excavation and backfill operations. |
| DRYCON reacts chemically with
the soluble salts found in all cementitious building materials.
DRYCON chemically combines with these salts to form insoluble
crystals, thereby attacking efflorescence at its source.
|
| A second chemical reaction occurs
between the DRYCON paste and additives, causing the paste to
harden into a dense plaster. In this way, an additional water barrier is
created as a coating at the surface of the masonry or concrete.
|
| Non-flammable and can be applied
without specialized equipment or special skills. |
