Krystol Mortar Admixture™ (KMA)
Through the reduction of permeability and absorption of the mortar, Krystol Mortar Admixture (KMA), a hydrophilic crystalline admixture, offers long-term protection of masonry mortars and concrete masonry units against water and waterborne pollutants.
As KMA can be readily integrated into the current mix-design and application procedures, it eliminates the requirement for surface-applied sealers, which simplifies installation. Building maintenance and repair expenses are reduced by KMA’s exceptional waterproofing performance.
How Does its Works?
There is Krystol technology in KMA. Krystol fills capillary pores and microcracks in concrete and blocks the routes for water and waterborne pollutants by chemically reacting with water and unhydrated cement particles when added to cementitious mortars or concrete masonry units. Over the course of its lifetime, any moisture added to the concrete will cause crystallisation, guaranteeing long-lasting waterproofing.
Product Advantages
- Less expensive to build initially than surface-applied sealers
- Reduces personnel requirements, streamlines installation, and speeds up the construction process
- Prolongs the life of your mortar and lowers the expense of building upkeep and repairs
- Improves durability and provides a long-lasting solution using materials meant to endure the mortar’s lifetime.
- Keeps the building clean and in its original aesthetic for long-term appeal.
Applications
Utilise KMA to offer long-term defence for:
- Plastering and rendering mortar over prepared substrates, such as concrete masonry walls, including stucco and other thin topping mixes
- Masonry mortar (i.e., mortar that goes between the masonry units)Masonry mortar (i.e., mortar that goes between the masonry units)
- Concrete masonry units, such as produced bricks and blocks
