Kryton’s admixtures and additives are solutions that make high-quality concrete waterproofing and durability possible. These include Kryton’s crystalline admixtures, such as Krystol Internal Membrane™ and Krystol Mortar Admixture™, and Kryton’s Hard-Cem® and Con-Fume® admixtures.
The crystalline admixtures are added to concrete or mortars at the time of batching. They provide waterproofing protection that replaces the need for traditional surface-applied waterproofing treatments and adds long-term durability to your structure.
Kryton’s Hard-Cem® admixture is used to increase abrasion and erosion resistance of concrete, more than doubling the concrete’s wear life. It is added to the concrete at the time of batching to fortify the mix’s existing cement paste so that it resists abrasive and erosive forces, significantly reducing replacement and repair requirements. That in turn lowers the lifetime cost and carbon footprint of the concrete.
Kryton’s Con-Fume® silica fume is an industry standard, pozzolanic, supplementary cementing material used to produce high-performance concrete or shotcrete, mortar, or cementitious grouts requiring increased strength and/or reduced permeability of the hardened cement matrix.
Krystol Internal Membrane™ (KIM®)
KIM is a hydrophilic crystalline admixture used to create permanently waterproof concrete.
Hard-Cem®
Hard-Cem is an admixture for abrasion and erosion resistance that improves the durability, life span, and sustainability of concrete.
Con-Fume®
Con-Fume silica fume is a pozzolanic material used to produce high-performance concrete or mortar possessing increased strength, impermeability, and durability.
Krystol Mortar Admixture™ (KMA)
KMA is a hydrophilic crystalline admixture used to provide long-term protection of masonry mortars and concrete masonry units against water and waterborne contaminants by reducing the permeability and absorption of the mortar.
Krystol Internal Membrane (KIM) is a hydrophilic crystalline admixture used to create permanently waterproof concrete.
Admixture for Abrasion and Erosion Resistance Unlike post-applied surface treatments that delaminate over time, or high-strength concrete that’s prone to curling and cracking, Hard-Cem integral admixture significantly reduces replacement and repair requirements and more than doubles the concrete’s wear life — lowering its embodied carbon footprint over its lifetime.
Con-Fume® silica fume is a pozzolanic material used to produce high performance concrete or mortar possessing increased strength, impermeability and durability. As a supplementary cementing material, Con-Fume meets or exceeds all current ASTM, CSA, and AASHTO specifications for silica fume.
Krystol Mortar Admixture (KMA) is a hydrophilic crystalline admixture used to provide long-term protection of masonry mortars and concrete masonry units against water and waterborne contaminants by reducing permeability and absorption of the mortar.
