Mak Crete MWP is an acrylic based polymer modified cementitious water proofing system. The MAK CRETE polymer, when mixed with cement will provide the unique solution to all problems related to water leakage and protects from severe fungus, salt penetration, or environmental attack in the following structures:
• Roof Slab, Parapet, Terrace, Balconies. • Basements, Retaining Walls, tunnels, etc. • Bathroom and any floor to dampness • Against corrosion and salt attacks • Water Tanks or swimming pools • General concrete repair
When mix with the cement, it will provide better adhesive properties, impact resistance, flexural strength, and thin section fragility when compared with ordinary cement mortar.
PRODUCT FEATURES
• Mak Crete MWP increases the plasticity of concrete and cement. • Provided a tough and hard surface with water proofing. • Resistant to salt penetration • Resistant to UV rays, mild acids to strong alkalis. • Non-Flammable. • No health hazards to workmen. • Can be applied on horizontal as well as vertical surfaces.
HOW IT WORKS
It is well accepted fact that the damage skin or flesh of human body is only replaced with the skin or flesh of similar body. Likewise, damaged cementitious concrete or mortar should always be replaced by same kind of material. But cement particularly is having poor adhesive properties, low flexural and impact strength and mainly thin section fragility. Addition of acrylic polymer MAKCRETE into cement acts as a bonding agent and forms a hard, impermeable film which prevents not only water and fume but also allow the structure to breathe. This film, unlike all other existing conventional materials is flexible enough to take care of the thermal movement of structure and protects from severe attacks during all seasons.
SURFACE PREPARATION
The area to be coated must be sound clean, and free from oils, grease, or any other surface contaminants. Remove any loose material by scraping, chipping, mechanical abrasion, or any other suitable method. Visible cracks or any porous substrate are to be filled or levelled by using filler. The prepared surface is to be adequately saturated with water for atleast one hour before application, but leave no puddle of water. Cleaning of salt attacked area can be thoroughly washed muretic acid followed by copious water till neutral to litmus. Excellent surface preparation will ensure superior water proofing, excellent bonding & economic coverage.
MIXING
Take 1 part by weight of MAK CRETE into a clean container and then add gradually 2 parts by weight of fresh cement under continuous mixing till a lump free pintable consistency is achieved. NEVER ADD LIQUID INTO THE CEMENT.
APPLICATION
The slurry made by the above method is to be applied by a wide flat brush or broom across the prepared area uniformly. Apply the second coat of the freshly mixed slurry soon after the first coat is air dried sufficiently (Normally 3 to 6 hours). Stir frequently during use to offset settlement. NEVER USE A PREPARED SLURRY MORE THAN 30 MINUTES OLD.
CURING
MAK CRETE composite slurry system does not require continuous wet curing or ponding but it is recommended only after 24 hours of final coat application sprinkling of water or a cover with a plastic sheet to minimize.
