Description
Sikagard 700 MY is a 1-part water repellent impregnation for absorbent cementitious substrates. It penetrates well into the open pores of the substrate, providing durable water repellency, while still allowing water vapour diffusion in both directions.
Uses
Sikagard 700 MY is used as water repellent and colourless protective surface treatment absorbent exposed materials such as concrete, cementitious rendering, concrete tiles, fibre cement, brickwork (clay and lime sand, non vitrified), natural stone, etc. Sikagard 700 MY can also be used as hydrophobic primer under solvent based or emulsion protective coating.
Characteristics & Advantages
- Reduction of capillary water absorption
- Reduces efflorescence
- Reduces dirt penetration into the pores
- Improves thermal insulation
- Can be overcoated with solvent based and dispersion coating
- Higher durability and resistance than conventional silicone based treatments
- Does usually not change the appearance of the substrate
- Reduces chloride ion ingress and movement
- Does not act as a vapour barrier
Colour
- Colourless liquid
