SUPER/SUPER WHITE Waterproofing Slurry ™ in-depth waterproofing and protection | permanent active | applied to pressure or non-pressure concrete face ™ approved for potable water contact ™ grey or white VANDEX SUPER and VANDEX SUPER WHITE are of a similar nature. Whereas VANDEX SUPER is based on grey Portland cement VANDEX SUPER WHITE uses white cement as binding agent. Alltechnical information of VANDEX SUPER apply also for VANDEX SUPER WHITE except for colour, bulk density and setting time. Product Description VANDEX SUPER is @ surface-applied material which waterproofs and protects cconerete in-depth, It consists of grey or white Portland coment, specially treated quartz sand and @ compound of active chemicals. VANDEX SUPER is supplied in powder formin 25 kg bags and needs only to be mixed with water prior to application. Areas of Application \VANDEX SUPER can be applied to all structurally sound concrete - new or old. itmay be applied to either the pressure or non-pressure concrete face (i.e. with or against water pressure), \VANDEXSUPERmay be used in conjunction with VANDEX PREMIX (see separate data sheet). Typical areas of application are: basement retaining walls 1 swimmingpools ™ concretesiabs (loor/root/balcony, etc.) Ml sewage treatment plants 1B constructionjoints channels water retaining structures bridges, ete. Properties ‘When VANDEX SUPERIs appliedto a concrete surface the active chemicalscombine withthe free lime and moisture present inthe cepillary tract, toform insoluble crystalline ‘complexes. These crystals block the capillaries and minor shrinkage cracks in the concrete to prevent any further water ingress (even under pressure). However, the \Vandex layer willstill allow the passage of water vapour through the structure (.¢, the concrete will stil be able to breathe”). In addition to waterproofing the structure, VANDEX SUPER protects concrete againstsea water, waste water, aggressive ground water and certain chemical solutions. VANDEX SUPER is approved for use in contact with potable water, and is therefore suitable for the treatment of water storage tanks, reservoirs, watertowers, etc. \VANDEX SUPER and VANDEX SUPER WHITE are not decorative materials, Surface Preparation All concrete to be treated with VAN DEX SUPER must be clean and have an ,open” capillary system. Remove laitance, dirt, grease, etc. by means of high pressure water Jetting, wet sandblasting or wire brushing. Faulty concrete in the form of eracks, honey: ‘combing, etc. must be chased out, treated with VANDEX SUPER and filled flush with VANDEX UNI MORTAR 1. Surfaces must be carefully prewatered priortothe Vandex application. The concrete surface must be damp but not wet.Mixing VANDEX SUPERis mechanically mixed with clean waterto a consistency ofthick oil paint. Approximate mixing ratio is 0.8 parts of water to 2.0 pars of powder (by volume) Mix oniy as much material 2s can be used within 20 minutes and str mixture frequently. Ifthe mixture star to set do not add more water, simply resi to restore workability Application Slurry consisteney.Apply VANDEXSUPERin one or two coats accordingto specification by masonry brush or appropriate power spray equipment. When two coats are specified apply the second coat whilst the first coat is stil .green” Dry powder consistency (for horizontal surfaces only). The specified amount of \VANDEX SUPERis distibutediin powder formthrougha sieve and rowelled intothe freshly placed concrete once this has reached initial set. Post treatment. The treated areas should be kept damp for a period of five days and mustbe protected against direct sun, wind and frost, by covering with polythene sheeting, damp hessian or similar. Note: Do not apply VANDEX SUPER at temperatures below +5 °C. \VANDEX SUPER cannot be used as an additive to concrete or plasters, Consumption Concrete surfaces to be backfilled.
