When it comes to fortifying mortars against water intrusion, ELOTEX^® SEAL81 emerges as a game-changer. This innovative product, available in convenient powder form, contains an encapsulated silane with remarkable water-repellent properties.

Unleash the Power

ELOTEX^® SEAL81 is a crucial raw material in the building and construction industry, particularly in the realm of ready-mixed dry mortars. It functions as an organic additive, elevating the performance of various mortar formulations, including:

• Tile Grouts (Cement-Based): Enhance the durability and water resistance of tile grouts, ensuring they remain intact and reliable.
• Repair Mortars: Strengthen repair mortars to withstand the test of time, even in challenging conditions.
• Renders (Cement and Lime-Based): Improve the water-repellent characteristics of renders, ensuring they maintain their structural integrity.
• Cementitious Waterproofing Membranes (Rigid, One-Component): Elevate the waterproofing capabilities of cementitious membranes, guarding against moisture intrusion.

Outstanding Water-Repellent Properties

ELOTEX^® SEAL81 operates by releasing its active ingredient when mixed with water. This ingredient then forms a covalent bond with the inorganic mortar matrix, delivering unparalleled water-repellent performance. Expect:

• Water-Repellent Excellence: Achieve remarkable water repellency both on the surface and within the mass of cementitious mortars.
• Pearl Effect: Enjoy a visually pleasing pearl effect on the treated surfaces, enhancing the aesthetics of your projects.
