Features of Waterproof Nano Concrete Adhesive ZA12

Acrylic Resin-Based:

The pool waterproof concrete adhesive is made of acrylic resins that increase the adhesion of the concrete and mortar particles.

Emulsion Form:

The pool waterproof concrete adhesive comes as a colloidal solution of various polymers in water, which easily mixes with concrete.

Increased Density and Reduced Permeability:

Using the adhesive fills the voids between aggregates, increasing concrete density and significantly reducing permeability.

Improved Mechanical Strength:

This product increases the tensile and flexural strength of concrete, enhancing structural stability.

High Adhesion:

Provides significant adhesion to concrete or mortar, preventing separation of fine and coarse particles.

Retention of Concrete Quality in Alkaline Environments:

Helps maintain concrete quality in alkaline conditions, preventing weakening.

Prevention of Cracking and Bulging:

Prevents cracks and bulges in the concrete, increasing compressive strength and service life.


Applications of Waterproof Nano Concrete Adhesive ZA12

Repair Work:

Highly effective in repair projects, helping create a homogeneous and strong bond between new and old mortar or concrete.

Waterproofing Concrete Structures:

Suitable for waterproofing pools, water tanks, treatment plants, and other water structures.

Bonding New Concrete to Old Concrete:

Used to address cold joints and improve adhesion between new and old concrete.

Improving Quality of Repair Mortars:

Serves as an additive in repair mortars to increase adhesion to substrates and improve mechanical properties.


Mechanism of Action of Waterproof Nano Concrete Adhesive ZA12

  • Increased Particle Adhesion: Improves bonding between concrete particles, enhancing integrity and strength.
  • Polymer Film Formation: Creates a protective polymer film in aggregate voids, reducing permeability.
  • Reduced Permeability: Significantly minimizes water and liquid penetration.
  • Hardening and Stability: Fully dries and becomes insoluble after concrete sets.
  • Environmental Resistance: Protects concrete from moisture, freeze-thaw cycles, and chemicals.

Consumption Rates

  • Internal Waterproofing of Concrete: 5–9% of cement weight.
  • Repair Mortar: 3–5% of cement weight.
  • Bonding to Old Concrete & Reducing Permeability: 4–6% of cement weight.

Important Notes

Surface roughness, ambient temperature, cement type/quantity, and aggregate characteristics affect consumption.

Application Method of ZA12 Waterproof Concrete Adhesive

1. For Increasing Surface Impermeability

  • Surface Cleaning:The mortar or concrete surface must be clean and free from dust, grease, and contamination.
  • Solution Preparation:Mix ZA12 pool waterproof concrete adhesive with water in a 1:1 or 1:2 ratio.
  • Adhesive Application:Using a brush, roller, or spray gun, coat the target surface twice, with an interval of 1 to 3 hours between applications.

2. For Reducing Internal Permeability

  • Solution Preparation:Mix the adhesive with water in a 1:3 to 1:5 ratio thoroughly.
  • Mixing with Mortar:Add the dry mortar ingredients to the solution and mix well.
  • Concrete Protection:After completion, protect the surface with a curing compound for 5 days.

3. For Bonding New Mortar to Old

  • Surface Cleaning:Remove all contaminants, grease, oil, paint, and loose particles from the target surface.
  • Application on Old Concrete:Apply a thick, concentrated layer of ZA12 adhesive to the old concrete surface.
  • Adding Adhesive to New Concrete:Add 4–6% of ZA12 adhesive by cement weight to the fresh concrete mix before application.

4. For Repair Works

  • Surface Cleaning:Remove all loose areas and any contamination or grease from the repair surface.
  • Primer Application:Apply a layer of ZA12 adhesive diluted with water as a primer on the surface.
  • Adding Adhesive to Repair Mortar:Add the specified amount of ZA12 adhesive to the repair mortar to improve its bonding properties.
