Share the Product :

Cement based , applicable in both positive and negative hydrostatic pressure ;​​​​​ It is a crystalline waterproofing material that becomes reactive with water and moisture . With its formula consisting of cement, chemicals and specially selected fine aggregates , it reacts with water , moisture
and free lime in the (old/new) concrete and penetrates deeply into the concrete . It does. It forms insoluble minerals in capillary spaces and pores.

Usage Areas : Negative Water Pressure :
​​• In the internal insulation of basement walls and foundations ,
• In the external insulation of water tanks that are not buried in the ground

•​​​​​​​​​​It is used in retaining walls.
Tunnels and subways.

• Floors and horizontal joints.

Elevator pits.

Positive Water Pressure :​

• In sub - foundation and curtain concrete.

• In water tanks , ( positive application both from inside and outside in underground water tanks )
• In swimming pools.

• Irrigation channels It is used in  Concrete pipes.
• Tunnels and culverts,
• Dams

• Cisterns

Advantages : •
It can be applied from the front where both positive and negative hydrostatic pressure is present .
It integrates with the surface on which it is applied . It penetrates deeply into the concrete volume. Minerals formed after the reaction fill the capillary spaces . Thus, it insulates the concrete both superficially and volumetrically .
• Since it is reactive , reinforced concrete continues to react with water molecules throughout its life and provides water insulation throughout the service life of the structure . • Sub- foundation sprinkling application can be done in any weather conditions where concrete pouring is possible . However, if there is water accumulation on the lean concrete in rainy weather , concrete pouring and dry sprinkling should be done at the same time .

• DEMAFİX​​​​​​​​​​​​ There is no need to use a primer before application , curing with water is sufficient.
• It is an extremely easy and effective method to apply DEMAFİ​​​​​​​​​X
• Since it fills the capillary gaps inside the concrete and cracks that may occur up to 0.5 mm in size , it will prevent water, moisture and sulphate from entering the concrete . By protecting concrete from chemical and physical damage caused by sulfate attacks , reinforcement corrosion is prevented.
• Because it penetrates the concrete and does not form an insulation layer ;​​​​​​There is no need for XPS, drainage plate and protection wall before filling .
• Air and water vapor are permeable , concrete breathes . It prevents the formation of moisture and odor.
• It can be applied to concrete that has not yet set , new concrete and old concrete.
• It is not affected by UV rays and oxidations.
• It is economical as it saves time and labor.

It is resistant to the freeze - thaw cycle.

• It is not poisonous . Ideal for drinking water tanks.

Preparation of the surface :

1. UNDER THE FOUNDATION ; There is no need to make any surface preparation for sub - base dry spreading application . IN SECOND CURTAIN CONCRETE;
• The application surface must be cleaned of substances that prevent penetration such as dust, oil , tar, pitch, paint, silicone, curing material , detergent and mold oils .
Segregations and static cracks in the concrete should be repaired with DEMAFİX Repair Mortar containing active material . Dynamic (moving) cracks should be repaired with FI ̇ XA 's suitable MS, hybrid or poly urethane mastics . Water leaking holes DEMAFİX SHOK PLUG It should be clogged with .​

3. IN COLD JOINTS;

The application surface must be cleaned of all materials that prevent adherence .

Preparation of the mortar :​​

Mixing water should be added to the DEMAFIX CRYSTALIZED powder placed in a clean mixing bowl .​​​​​​ A reverse process should not be performed and only enough material should be mixed that can be used within the life of the container .​​ Mixture water is slowly added onto DEMAF I​​​​​​​​​ It should be mixed with a mixer for 3 - 5 minutes until a homogeneous and lump - free mixture is obtained .​​​​​​​​​ For use in the form of free liquid , 25 kg of powder in 6.5 - 7.5 lt of water DEMAFİX CRYSTALIZED ; For application , the liquid mixture is prepared by adding 25 kg of powder DEMAFİX CRYSTALIZED​​​​​​​​​​​​ After mixing for 30 seconds , the material should be ready for use .​

Application Information:

There are 3 different application methods for DEMAFİX​​​​
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ 2 m x 3 m (6 m 2 ) panels are created for this purpose . 25 kg  DEMAFIX​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ It is applied over iron reinforcement with a cost of 2 . The water molecules present in the unset concrete are sufficient for DEMAFIX CRYSTALIZED reaction ;​​ For this reason, it is applied dry .

2. Serbet : It is formed by adding 25 kg of powder to 6.5 - 7.5 liters of water in horizontal and vertical cold joints, just before the mold is closed . It is applied by pouring the thick , viscous syrup with the help of a container or by applying it with a brush .​​

3. Sliding : On foundation and curtain concrete surfaces ; Before waterproofing old and new concrete , the application surface must be saturated with water and kept moist during application .​​​ The liquid mixture prepared by adding 25 kg of DEMAFIX​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ It should be applied with a total consumption of 2 kg / m2 ( For follow - up of the application , use red color DEMAFIX CRYSTALLİZE​ It is recommended to use ) . The second coat should be applied approximately 3 - 4 hours after the first coat has set , but while it is not yet completely dry . After the application is completed, spray curing with water should be done for 3 - 4 days .


• Since water pressure accelerates the formation of crystals and the penetration of DEMAFIX CRYSTALLIZE into the concrete , structures such as water tanks should be used in the final layer . It should be filled with water 24 hours after the STATIONAL application . Complete waterproofing is usually achieved within 5 - 7 days after application . Earth filling is done at the end of this period .

• The
formation of minerals within the concrete and the depth of penetration into the concrete depend on the quality of the concrete , the capillary void ratio in the concrete and the absorbency of the surface . The better the water curing is done , the better the material penetrates into the concrete . No other course liquid other than water should be used .​​​​​​• The crystals formed on the negatively insulated curtain concrete surface may create a very undecorative appearance .​​​​​​​​​​​​​​In order to prevent this , the last coat should be plastered on DEMAFIX CRYSTALLY while it is still wet and the paint should be applied over the plaster .If ceramic or tile application is to be made , the ceramic adhesive should be applied directly onto the freshly applied DEMAFIX CRYSTALIZED .​​​​​​​​If these applications are to be made on a cured DEMAFIX CRYSTALIZED surface , the crystals on the surface should be wiped with diluted hydrochloric acid or bleach solution , then​ Plaster should be applied on it .​​ This wiping process only destroys the crystals on the surface and does not damage the crystals that have penetrated into the concrete .

• Protective glasses and gloves should be used during application .​​​​​

Packaging:
In 25 kg  craft bags

Shelf Life :
It can be stored for 12 months in moisture - free environments and in its unopened packaging , on a pallet with a 10 - layer stack .

During the application , work clothes , protective gloves , glasses and masks that comply with work and worker health rules should be used .​​ If swallowed by accident, seek medical advice . In case of contact with skin, wash with plenty of water . It should be stored in places where children cannot reach it .

Consumption :​

Sub-Foundation DRY SPREAD: 3 kg/ m2

APPLICATION IN Curtain Concretes : Positive water pressure 2 kg / m2 ( on 2 floors) Negative water pressure 2.5 kg /m2 ( on 2 floors)

SHERBET in cold joints : 3 kg/ m2

• When applying coating on curtain concrete and cold joints , the air temperature should be between +5 ° C and +35 ° C. Product performance​​​​​​​ It will increase .
​​​ • Avoid application in areas that are frozen , at risk of freezing within 24 hours , or exposed to direct sun and wind .
• Never add powder or water to expired mortar .​​ During application , stir frequently to maintain the consistency of the mortar .​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
