Anti-Hydro Original Formula AH-1

Anti-Hydro is extensively recommended for integrally waterproofing concrete and mass concreting. Anti-Hydro is a non-corrosive solution of organic and inorganic chemicals that reacts with Portland cement to produce more complete hydration. Water requirements, bleed water, capillaries and shrinkage are reduced. The increased hydration provides internal curing and a much harder cement paste.

Anti-Hydro increases the early and ultimate strength of concrete. These combined reactions produce impermeable concrete that is hard and non-dusting. It is suitable for potable water and subsequent finishing applications.

 

Intended use:

• Pavements

• Structural concrete

• Swimming pools

• Basements

• Chimneys

• Cement pargeting

• Patching

• Foundations

• Elevator pits

• Sewage & water treatment plants

• Seawall construction

• Tunnels

• Underground utility construction

• Slabs-on-grade foundations

• Tanks

• Tilt-ups

• Countertops

• Precast

• Cold weather applications

• Waterproof shotcrete

• Anytime more complete hydration of cement is desired

Features:

• Resists extreme hydrostatic pressure from positive and negative side
• Provides moisture resistance
• Provides superior chemical resistance
• Resistant to freeze-thaw cycles
• Reduces or eliminates efflorescence
• Non-toxic, permanent & easy to use
• Complies with NSF Std 61 for potable water
• Increased compressive strength early & ultimate
• Accelerated set / reduced shrinkage
• Waterproof / impermeable concrete
• Increased flexural strength
• Increased tensile strength
• Increased bond shear strength
• Increased tensile shear strength
• Improved abrasion resistance
• Improved chemical resistance

 

Benefits:

• High strength – dramatically increases strength (compressive, flexural & tensile)
• Hardening & densifying – over 30% harder and denser
• Water vapor control – reduces all vapor transmission up to 85%
• Increased abrasion resistance – resists scratches, gouges & wear due to increased hardness
• Cold weather protection – keeps concrete & mortar from freezing, sets quickly
• Corrosion resistance – no penetration of chemicals minimizes corrosion
