Introducing Sika WT-240 P

Sika® WT-240 P is a powdered, plant-added crystalline based permeability reducing admixture for use in hydrostatic applications, (PRAH) that reduces the ability of concrete to conduct water flow. It contains moisture activated compounds that produce insoluble crystalline deposits that form within the capillary system. These crystalline formulations have the ability to reduce the size of capillary pores and prevent water penetration.

PERMEABILITY REDUCING ADMIXTURE
Sika® WT-240 P is a plant added crystalline based permeability reducing admixture. Sika® WT-240 P uses a unique combination of active ingredients, which react with the moisture within the concrete and with various products of the cement hydration process. This interaction forms insoluble compounds throughout the capillary system in concrete matrix, resulting in the reduced ability of concrete to conduct water flow.     Use of Sika® WT-240 P in watertight concrete application can result in:
  • Lower construction cost compare to traditional types of waterproofing.
  • Simple one-step use results in reduced application time and faster construction process.
  • Uniform waterproofing throughout the entire concrete volume.
  • Improved resistance against hydrostatic pressure.
  • Elimination of risk related to surface damage during construction process.
  • Ability to seal concrete cracks up to 0.40 mm (0.016 in).
  • Easy application due to repulpable bags.
  • Negligeable effect on concrete workability
  • Provides integral waterproofing
  • Increase concrete resistance to chemical attacks
