VARIPHOB® CC 4170

VARIPHOB® CC 4170 is an organomodified siloxane water-repelling agent designed for mineral-based construction materials such as concrete, brick, and stone. Part of the eco-friendly VARIPHOB® series, this product forms a molecular barrier that minimizes water absorption, maximizes water vapor permeability, and protects against moisture-induced damage, such as efflorescence, cracking, and mold growth.

This treatment reduces maintenance and cleaning costs and extends structures' lifespan by shielding them from environmental stress. VARIPHOB® CC 4170 is ideal for professionals seeking efficient and sustainable protection for their construction projects.

Key Attributes

Admixture:

  • VARIPHOB® CC 4170 is suitable for the use in mass hydrophobation of alkaline construction materials.
  • Recommended dosage: 0.1 – 2.5 m.-% CEM.
  • The optimal dosage has to be determined in pre-trials.
  • VARIPHOB® CC 4170 is added preferably at the end of the mixing process (e.g. after the gaging water).
  • Performance tests to relevant current standards or guidelines are always necessary before use.
