Penetron Admix SB
Crystalline admixture waterproofing agent for concrete
Penetron Admix SB is identical to our 3rd generation crystallizing additive but packaged in convenient, pre-measured soluble bags. This package makes adding the additive to new concrete batches quick and easy, without the hassle of dimensions or doses. A key feature of Penetron Admix SB is the addition of our unique “green snitch,” which indicates that the real Penetron Admix is in the mix, providing extra assurance about quality.
Once integrated into the concrete, Penetron Admix SB reduces permeability by permanently repairing microcracks, pores and capillaries. As a result, the concrete is durably protected against water infiltration and the harmful effects of degradation, even under high hydrostatic pressure. This self-healing ability ensures waterproof concrete that can seal any cracks that occur in the future, ensuring longevity and durability.
Penetron Admix SB is compatible with commonly used additives, such as superplasticizers and retardants, and can be incorporated into a variety of mixing designs. Test mixes are recommended prior to casting to ensure optimal results.
Penetron Admix Tracer
Penetron Admix SB includes the Penetron Admix Tracer, a handy fluorescent indicator that verifies the correct dosing and mixing of the additive in the concrete batch. This tracer offers extra quality control, so you can be sure that Penetron Admix SB is evenly distributed in the concrete and maintains its full effectiveness.
