TECHNICAL DATA SHEET
Concrete Waterproong Surface-Applied 3 of 4
HARDENED PROPERTIES
Hydrostatic head resistance 140 m (460 ft.)
Typical rate of crystal penetration 2 mm (0.08 in.) per week
Krystol T1 & T2 coated samples compared with
silicate based coating material.
Independent testing concludes that Krystol T1 & T2 Waterproong System is a permanent, in-depth waterproong treatment.
PERMEABILITY
DIN 1048: Part 5 - Permeability of Hardened Concrete
Krystol T1 treated specimens were exposed to 0.500 MPa (72.5 psi) of hydrostatic pressure for 72 hours. This is equivalent to
51 m (167 ft.) of head pressure. Treated samples performed 7x better than the control, only allowing 5.3 mm (0.21 in.) of water
to penetrate the sample. These results are very low and indicate excellent resistance to water under hydrostatic pressure.
Kuwait University, Civil Engineering Testing Center, 2004
Krystol T1 & T2 treated specimens were exposed to 0.500 MPa (72.5 psi) of hydrostatic pressure for 72 hours. This is
equivalent to 51 m (167 ft.) of head pressure. Water permeability of concrete treated with Krystol T1 & T2 was reduced 75%
compared to the equivalent plain concrete.

CHLORIDE PERMEABILITY
A 10% calcium chloride solution was allowed to pond on the surface of the Krystol T1 & T2 treated samples for 90 days. After
90 days, the acid soluble chloride ion content was determined by Mohr’s method (modied ASTM D1411) at various depths. The
T1 & T2-treated samples performed 3x better than the control at a depth of 5 mm (0.2 in.), 6x better at a depth of 10 mm (0.4
in.), and 19x better at a depth of 15 mm (0.5 in.).
