With its ability to resist extreme hydrostatic pressure, Xypex has been used extensively to waterproof reservoirs for potable water, filtration plants, swimming pools, and aquariums.
Xypex products used: Concentrate, Modified
Xypex was selected by Bechtel to waterproof a tower tank 27 m above the ground. Defective concrete was chipped out and repaired with Xypex Concentrate followed by the application of a 2:1 cement mortar patching compound. Xypex Concentrate and Modified were then applied over the repaired concrete.
