SILRES BS OH 100

SILRES®BS OH 100 is a solventless, ready-to-use product for the consolidation of construction materials. When applied, it penetrates through the capillaries deep into the construction material. The neutral catalyst promotes the reaction between ethyl silicate and water from atmospheric humidity or the moisture in the capillary pores. A glass-like silica gel binder (SiO2.aq.) is formed. Properties : • low-molecular - therefore optimum penetration • tack-free drying - therefore no dirt attraction • no by-products that are damaging to the building material • binder formed is mineral - therefore resembling the building material • the binder formed is acid-resistant-therefore resistant to rainwater • pores are not sealed - therefore the treated building material maintains its water vapour permeability Applications : • Construction Materials
