Krystol T1® Waterproofing System

DESCRIPTION
Krystol T1® is a surface-applied crystalline waterproofing treatment for concrete structures that is used to protect
against the ingress of water. It is a dry powder, which when mixed with water becomes a coating that is applied to the
inner or outer side of a concrete structure. Krystol T1® may also be applied as a dry-shake to freshly poured concrete.
Krystol T1® contain Kryton’s unique and proven Krystol® technology which reacts with un-hydrated cement particles to
grow millions of needle-like crystals deep into the concrete mass. Over a period of weeks and months, these crystals
grow, filling the naturally occurring pores and voids in concrete, and permanently blocking the pathways for water and
waterborne contaminants. Later, if cracks form due to settling or shrinkage, incoming water triggers the crystallization
process and additional crystals begin to grow, filling cracks and ensuring that the structure’s waterproofing barrier is
maintained and protected. The concrete itself becomes the waterproof layer removing the need for any surface
treatment.

Krystol Internal Membrane™ (KIM®)

DESCRIPTION
Krystol Internal MembraneTM (KIM®) is a hydrophillic crystalline waterproofing admixture in dry powdered form, effective
in creating waterproof concrete. KIM is the STANDARD used for qualifying Permeability Reducing Admixture -
Hydrostatic Conditions as specified by ‘ACI 212’ (Highest Grade of Permeability Reducing Admixture). KIM is used in
place of externally applied surface membranes to protect against moisture transmission, chemical attack and corrosion
of reinforcing steel.
KIM admixture consists of portland cement, quartz, sand and propriety chemicals, but does not contain sterates and
sodium-silicates. When combined with fresh concrete, Kryton’s unique and proven Krystol technology reacts with un-
hydrated cement particles to form millions of needle-like crystals. These crystals grow in a catalytic reaction, filling the
naturally occurring pores and voids in concrete, and permanently blocking the pathways for water and waterborne
contaminants. Later, if cracks form due to settling or shrinkage, incoming water triggers the crystallization process and
additional crystals form, filling cracks and ensuring that the structure’s waterproofing barrier is maintained and
protected.
In addition to filling the pores and capillaries of the concrete matrix with crystals, KIM enhances the natural hydration
process by intensifying and prolonging the hydration of the cementing materials. This reduces the size and number of
capillary pores within the concrete matrix, making it dramatically less porous, and improving strength and
durability characteristics.
