• Strong reduction in water uptake
• Excellent water repellency and consequently:
Salt barrier (e.g. road salt and sea water)– chlorides dissolved in water are blocked
No corrosion – the reinforcing steel does not rust since no moisture reaches it
No frost damage – greater resistance to freeze/thaw cycles
• FARAZSIL® NFS SUPER 290 provides a comprehensive and long-lasting protection of construction materials against water intrusion, efflorescence and destruction by water-soluble pollutants as well as against frost damage and attack of micro-organisms.
• Excellent depth of penetration. Due to its high penetration ability, FARAZSIL® NFS SUPER 290 can impregnate the substrate in depth and create a protective barrier against rain for a long time.
• FARAZSIL® NFS SUPER 290 does not create a membrane or alter the appearance of the surface; it does not shine, but allows the structural member to breathe.
• The FARAZSIL® NFS SUPER 290 impregnated surface remains clean because the rainwater does not penetrate the pores, but is repelled, carrying away any stuck dust.
• Does not influence water-vapor permeability
• It minimizes the appearance of salts and damages caused by frost that is frequent in wetted surfaces.
• Excellent chemical resistance
• Resistance to UV radiation
• Does not render shiny, tacky, or yellowish surfaces.
FARAZSIL® NFS SUPER 290 is appropriate for non-absorbent and smooth surfaces such as painted and unpainted metals and stones with low absorption, such as marble, granite and travertine. FARAZSIL® NFS SUPER 290 is suitable for imparting water repellency to absorbent, porous, mineral building materials. E.g.:
• All kinds of concrete
• Mineral plasters
• Cement Fibreboards
• Sand lime brickwork
• Brickwork
• Aerated concrete
• Mineral-based natural and artificial stone
• Mineral Paints
