How It Works

Krystol T1 & T2 concrete waterproofing surface-applied system is a simple, two-step cementitious slurry system that is brush-applied to existing concrete structures. After application, chemicals from Krystol T1 & T2 are absorbed into the concrete through capillary action (the natural wicking movement of liquids through a porous structure) and diffusion (the natural movement of chemical molecules.)

Since the majority of active crystalline chemicals migrate into the concrete within the first 28 days, the surface-applied slurry can be completely removed from the surface after this time with no impact to its waterproofing properties.

Where It's Used

 

Krystol T1 & T2 is warranted for use in place of conventional concrete waterproofing surface-applied systems. It can be used in recently poured or decades old concrete. Some of it's recommended uses are in concrete foundations and walls, elevated slabs and ramps, parking structures, water towers and bridge decks.

Kryton has successfully used Krystol T1 & T2 in hundreds of projects including the Shangri-La's Rasa Ria Resort Hotel in Malaysia.

Product Benefits

In-depth waterproofing abilities

• System becomes an integral part of the concrete
• Impermeability lasts as long as the concrete
• Impermeability is not affected by surface wear or abrasion
• Protects reinforcing steel from corrosion 
• Protects against waterborne contaminants
• Stops ingress of water required for reaction of AAR/ASR
• Completely eliminates the need for costly, surface applied membranes

Efficient Application Method

• Can be applied to wet concrete
• Can be used for new or existing concrete
• Can be applied to positive or negative side of concrete
• Does not require re-application
• Not subject to stringent workmanship requirements of membrane applications at details and joints
• Compatible with water-based glues and surface coatings

Withstands high hydrostatic pressure 

• Ideal for below grade applications, reservoirs and pipelines
• Stops moisture from coming up through concrete to debond floor materials, coatings and tiles
• Stops water from penetrating concrete in extreme applications
• Protects against waterborne ground contaminants

High-growth organic technology
