 Krystol Mortar Admixture™ (KMA™)
Krystol Mortar Admixture™ (KMA™) is a specially designed chemical admixture for cementitious mortar. KMA contains a unique blend of specialty chemicals that react with the cementitious materials in the mortar to form hydration crystals. These long, hair-like crystals block the capillary pores and micro-cracks within the mortar so that permeability of the mortar is dramatically reduced. Reference Material
How it Works
 |
KMA is a dry powder added directly to the mortar during mixing. The crystals that form block the capillary pores and micro-cracks within the mortar, reducing the permeability and providing waterproof protection. |
Where It's Used
 |
Krystol Mortar Admixture can be used to damp-proof mortar rendering on brick, block and other masonry walls. It can reduce the permeability of plaster, stucco and thin topping mixes and waterproof shotcrete and concrete overlayments.
Kryton has successfully used KMA in hundreds of projects, including the Crowne Plaza Today Hotel in India. |
