Super Sikalite - Powder additive - Sika

Super Sikalite is a powder water repellent for waterproofing concrete, cement mortars or bastard mortars.

Features

Super Sikalite brings to concretes and mortars:

• Excellent waterproofing by chemical transformation and fixation of their soluble constituents
• A better smoothness that facilitates implementation and promotes compactness
• Longer pot life: no bleeding (no need to reshuffle), no hardening delay
• Reduces shrinkage by reducing mixing water
• Improves the frost resistance of hardened mortars

Application areas

• Waterproofing of walls and facades: comply with the requirements of DTU 26.1.
• Screeds and forms of waterproofing protection for flat roofs.
• For swimming pools and reservoirs, waterproofing is easily obtained by applying in several passes a coating of Super Sikalite mortar 2 to 3 cm thick on a transplanted concrete.
  The dosage will be 1 volume of cement for 2 volumes of sand and the finishing coat will be troweled and not smoothed to avoid crazing.
• Creation of waterproof screeds (comply with the requirements of DTU 52).
  The waterproofing of the screed will be obtained by incorporating Super Sikalite into the mortar dosed with cement as described for swimming pools and tanks.
• Realization of leveling screeds, capillarity breaks (refer to the prescriptions of DTU 20.1).

Application

1. The implementation will comply with the requirements of DTU 52.
