"Invisible protective umbrella" for building materials
In the field of construction, materials such as concrete, masonry, and natural stone are exposed to the outside for a long time and are easily eroded by moisture, pollutants, and ultraviolet rays. Octyltrimethoxysilane can penetrate into the interior of these materials and react chemically with them to form a hydrophobic layer, significantly reducing water penetration and weathering, thereby extending the service life of the building.
Application cases:
Concrete waterproofing: used for highway bridges, tunnels, and high-rise buildings to reduce water erosion and alkali aggregate reaction (ASR).
Stone protection: prevent natural stones such as marble and granite from absorbing water, discoloring, or weathering damage.
Ancient building restoration: used for the protection of cultural heritage buildings to delay aging and damage.
