Xypex Modified: Xypex 5Gal Bucket
Xypex Modified is a unique chemical treatment for the waterproofing, protection and repair of concrete. XYPEX MODIFIED can be applied as a second coat to reinforce Xypex Concentrate, or applied by itself to damp-proof the exterior of foundation walls. Applied as a second coat, Xypex Modified chemically reinforces Xypex Concentrate where two coats are required and produces a harder finish. Where damp- proofing is required, a single coat of Modified may be used as an alternative to a spray/tar emulsion. Xypex prevents the penetration of water and other liquids from any direction by causing a catalytic reaction that produces a non-soluble crystalline formation within the pores and capillary tracts of concrete and cement-based materials.Questions?

1. SURFACE PREPARATION Concrete surfaces to be treated must be clean and free of laitance, dirt, film, paint, coating or other foreign matter. Surfaces must also have an open capillary system to provide “tooth and suction” for the Xypex treatment. When applied as a single coat, a CSP-3per the International Concrete Repair Institute Guidelines and Surface Profile Chips is recommended. If surface is too smooth (e.g. where steel forms are used) or covered with excess form oil or other foreign matter, the concrete should be lightly sandblasted, water blasted, or etched with muriatic (HCL) acid.
2. STRUCTURAL REPAIRS – PRIOR TO COATING APPLICATION For cracks larger than 1/64” (0.4 mm) or for actively leaking cracks the following repair procedures are recom- mended. Chip out cracks, faulty construction joints and other structural defects to a depth of 1.5 inches (37 mm) and a width of 1 inch (25 mm). A “V” shaped slot is not acceptable. The slot may be saw cut instead of chipped but ensure that the slot is dovetailed or otherwise shaped such that there will be mechanical interlock of materials placed into the slot at a later stage. Clean and wet the slot and apply a brush coat of Xypex Concentrate as described in steps 5 & 6 and allow to dry for 10 minutes. Fill cavity by tightly compressing Dry-Pac into the groove with pneumatic packing tool or with hammer and wood block.
NOTE:
i. Areas of poor concrete consolidation that show evidence of leakage should also be repaired.
ii. Against a direct flow of water (leakage) or where there is excess moisture due to seepage, use Xypex Patch’n Plug then Xypex Dry-Pac followed by a brush coat of Xypex Concentrate.
iii. For expansion joints or chronic moving cracks, flexible materials such as expansion joint sealants should be used.
3. WETTING CONCRETE Xypex requires a saturated surface dry (SSD) condition. Concrete surfaces must be thor- oughly saturated with clean water prior to the application so as to aid the diffusion of the Xypex chemistry and to ensure the growth of the crystalline formation deep within the pores of the concrete. Remove excess surface water before the application. If concrete surface dries out before application, it must be re-wetted.
4.MIXING FOR SLURRY COAT Mix Xypex powder with clean water to a creamy consistency in the following proportions:
Do not mix more Xypex material than can be applied in 20 minutes. Do not add water once mix starts to harden. Protect hands with rubber gloves.
