Description

ZycoSil+ is a reactive organosilane based water proofing agent that seals upto nano-pore level. It has an ability to penetrate upto 2 mm deep inside the substrate and becomes a permanent integral part of the structure. It reacts and converts the hydrophilic chemical groups of the substrate into hyrdrophobic groups. ZycoSil+ is water dilutable, safe, sprayable and easy to apply. ZycoSil+ is nonleachable, UV resistant, breathable and does not present peel-off issues unlike conventional polymer coatings. ZycoSil+ is a 100% Reactive Organosilane Nano-Sealer. When applied on a siliceous substrate, it penetrates up to 2 mm inside the substrate and becomes an integral part of the structure. It converts the nature of the substrate from hydrophilic to hydrophobic. ZycoSil+ is water dilutable, safe, sprayable and easy to apply. ZycoSil+ acts like a 'skin' up to 2 mm deep for your building as against a polymer or paint film that acts like a 'Band-Aid' on your Building. The peel-off issues are eliminated as ZycoSil+ is non-leachable & UV-Resistant. It has a dual property of preventing of ingress of liquid water while allowing moisture vapours to escape. APPLICATION METHOD 1) The substrate should be cured, dry and free from internal voids (honey combs). 2) If honey combs are present, drill a hole and inject ZycoSil+ solution 1 : 20 in water. Allow it to dry and then inject a suitable grout to fill and close the hole. 3) For substrates with oil, grease, fungal growth etc., clean and dry the surface thoroughly before application. 4) ZycoSil+ should be diluted with potable water (TDS <1000 ppm) to obtain a clear transparent solution. 5) The diluted solution should be liberally sprayed with low pressure until flood saturation is achieved. 6) Flood saturation on horizontal surfaces means no further absorption of ZycoSil+ even after 5 minutes of saturation. 7) On vertical surfaces apply ZycoSil+ from bottom to the top to eliminate drip-mark formation. 8) To achieve full saturation on vertical surface, after repetitive light spray (3-4 times after 30-45 seconds) the solution should drip down the wall. 9) Both applications are best done at a temperature between 10ºC (50oF) to 35ºC (95oF). It is best to do the application during the morning or evening hours to avoid peak heat of the Sun. 10) For doing any Screeding / Plastering / Tiles / Paint Work on the treated surface, ZycoPrime+ (Acrylic Bonder) must be added to the ZycoSil+ Solution during preparation in the recommended ratio of 2 parts of ZycoPrime, 1 part of ZycoSil+ & 20 parts of water.
