What is colloidal nano silica with hydrogel?
Imagine a protective solution so small it can penetrate concrete deeper than a human hair is wide! That's the power of nano technology in concrete protection.
The Science Made Simple:
- Particle size: 5-20 nanometers (a human hair is 100,000 nanometers!)
- Penetration depth: Up to 150mm
- Chemical process: Colloidal silica particles react with calcium hydroxide present in concrete
- Transformation: Forms a permanent calcium silicate hydrogel inside concrete pores
- Protection mechanism: Creates a sub-microscopic barrier that immobilizes moisture while allowing vapor transmission
- Durability enhancer: Increases concrete density and strength while reducing permeability
- Steel protector: Creates an environment that inhibits corrosion of reinforcing steel
🤔 Why does size matter? Concrete pores are typically 50 nanometers - our nano particles are small enough to penetrate deep into the concrete matrix, where they form a permanent protective gel. This is fundamentally different from surface treatments or membranes that sit on top of the concrete.
Unlike traditional sealers that create a surface film, our colloidal nano silica hydrogel technology transforms the concrete itself from within, providing decades of protection without the need for reapplication.
