Waterproofing bituminous emulsion
Aquapast
Aquapast is a waterproofing bituminous emulsion (paste) enriched with resins and mineral stabilisers. It adheres exceptionally well to construction materials. The film formed after application and drying is resistant to dilute solutions of acids and bases, and unaffected by soil salts, but it is vulnerable to organic solvents, oils, and strong chemical cleaners. It is userand environmentally friendly, as it contains no solvents. It is water-dilutable and compatible with polyurethane, polystyrene, concrete, metal, and wooden surfaces.
Applications
Aquapast is used for waterproofi ng and protecting horizontal and vertical surfaces made of concrete, such as roofs, fl oors, exterior walls, foundations, and bridge foundations.
Packaging and storage
Available in plastic containers of 5kg and 18kg. Store in a covered area at temperatures above 5°C for at least one year.
