Technology
Just spray MULTISEAL, it
waterproofs and vaccinates the concrete from the most deadliest
concrete diseases with its three different mechanisms that combine
water repellence and dual crystallization.

SUPERSHIELD MULTISEAL is a
unique water based, environmentally friendly waterproofing and
vaccination treatment for concrete and all cement-based material. In
a single application it will permanently waterproof and protect
concrete against water, moisture, aggressive chemicals and
temperature associated problems such as concrete leakage, thermal
cracking, damage caused by repeated freeze and thaw cycles, chloride
ion penetration, as well as alkali silica reactions (ASR). The
protection properties of SUPERSHIELD MULTISEAL takes place in three
different mechanisms that combine water repelling technology with
impregnation (Hydrated crystals) and DPC crystallization
(Hygroscopic crystals) technology.
SUPERSHIELD MULTISEAL
once sprayed on to the concrete will seep into the pores and
capillaries of the concrete taking advantage of its low viscosity,
where it chemically reacts and results in outstanding protection
system by forming a water repelling substrate with two distinctive
crystal formation (Hydrated and hygroscopic) filling the pores,
capillaries and voids from all the direction.
Repellent
Technology
The initial reaction that takes
place once the SUPERSHIELD MULTISEAL starts drying on the concrete
surface is with an excellent repelling feature .This takes place
when the product reacts with the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere
and forms a invisible film on the surface and also on the inner
walls of the pores that prevents water from penetrating into
concrete through capillaries by increasing the surface tension of
water and other liquids such as jet fuel and oils.
Impregnation
Technology
The hydrated crystals (contains
water as part of its chemical formula and structure) are formed on
the top surface, filling pores and capillaries of the concrete for
about 5-20 mm deep, depending upon the concrete matrix. These
hydrated crystals are formed by MULTISEAL chemically reacting with
calcium hydroxide present in the concrete and forms calcium silicate
hydroxides, similar to that are formed during the cement hydration
process.
DPC(Deep
Penetrating Capillary) Crystallization Technology
Deep inside the concrete substrate the SUPERSHIELD MULTISEAL form
hygroscopic crystalline structure by means of a complex chemical
reaction involving pressure of osmosis and Brownian movement. The
crystals can only occur where moisture is present, and thus will
form in the pores, capillary tracts, and shrinkage cracks in
concrete. The reaction will continue until the SUPERSHIELD MULTISEAL
system chemicals are
either depleted or run out of water. Chemical diffusion will take
these chemicals about 12 inches minimum into the concrete. If water
has only soaked two inches into the surface, then the MULTISEAL
system chemicals will only travel two inches and stop but, they
still have the potential to travel 10 inches further, if water
reenters the concrete at some point in the future and reactivates
the chemicals.
Instead of reducing the porosity of concrete, like water reducers,
plasticizers, and superplasticizers, or just covering the substrates
using membranes or fluid applied membranes the SUPERRSHIELD
MULTISEAL system protects by three different mechanisms on single
application. Because these chemical formations are within the
concrete and are not exposed at the surface, they cannot be
punctured or otherwise damaged like membranes or surface coatings.
SUPERRSHIELD MULTISEAL system is highly resistant to chemicals where
the pH range is between three and 11 under constant contact, and two
to 12 under periodic contact. SUPERSHIELD MULTISEAL will tolerate
temperatures between -25 degrees Fahrenheit (-32 degrees Centigrade)
and 265 degrees Fahrenheit (130 degrees Centigrade) in a constant
state. Humidity, ultraviolet light, and oxygen levels have no impact
on the products ability to perform. In a nutshell SUPERSHIELD
MULTISEAL system vaccinates the concrete against the most deadly
concrete diseases.
