Liquid Cristalline Waterproofing & Plasticising Concrete Admixture

VELOSIT CA 117 is an easy to use, economic, liquid crystalline and water-reducing waterproofing concrete admixture. VELOSIT CA 117 creates a crystalline “nano” structure within the concrete matrix, reducing the diameter of capillaries and  sealing of any micro static cracks (up to 400 microns).
