Xypex Concentrate is the most chemically active product within the Xypex Crystalline Waterproofing System. When mixed with water, this light grey powder is applied as a cementitious slurry coat to above-grade or below-grade concrete, either as a single coat or as the first of a two-coat application. The Xypex Crystalline Technology remains at the core of this line that has evolved into an integrated system: Thus came about Xypex concrete waterproofing products.

Xypex products use water as a migrating medium to enter and travel down the capillaries of the concrete. This process precipitates a chemical reaction between Xypex, moisture and the by-products of cement hydration, forming a new non-soluble crystalline structure. This integral structure fills the capillary tracts rendering the concrete waterproof. Thus came about Xypex concrete waterproofing products. https://www.xypex.com/about/crystalline-technology

More than fifty years ago, demonstrating some brilliant ingenuity, a group of chemists at Xypex Chemical Corporation developed a technology that would change the way concrete is protected from intrusive liquids.

Both physical damage and chemical attack of concrete in sewage and septic systems is possible. However, the chemical attack is much more prevalent and has two primary causes: acid attack and sulfate attack. In the wastewater industry, the acid attack mechanism is normally referred to as Microbial Induced Corrosion (MIC) – a process in which sulfides in the wastewater stream are transformed by biological reactions into sulfuric acid. The sulfur compounds produced by this reaction penetrate the concrete substrate helping to initiate sulfate attack.

Crystalline waterproofing technology was an idea that grew because Xypex chemists questioned what concrete was all about and found a way to make it better. This integral structure fills the capillary tracts rendering the concrete waterproof. Thus came about Xypex concrete waterproofing products.

Xypex products have been thoroughly tested in independent labs throughout the world and according to international standards. Permeability, chemical resistance, compressive strength, freeze-thaw durability, potable water, and other tests, all concluding positive results.

Xypex Bio-San C500 is a unique way of protecting concrete in harsh sewage conditions with high levels of hydrogen sulfide that cause microbial-induced corrosion. No other admixture combines potent antimicrobial properties with Xypex crystalline waterproofing technology to offer complete protection of concrete sewer and wastewater structures.

In thousands of applications, Xypex has fulfilled a promise we made to ourselves right from the beginning. Our market would be global, our distributor network would be second to none, we would build an infrastructure of people who would be knowledgeable, responsive, and reliable — and our products, always, would be the best in the business.

Basic to the development of Xypex Crystalline Technology was a thorough understanding of concrete's chemical and physical makeup. Concrete is porous. Its tunnel-like capillaries are a natural part of its mass and permit the passage of water and other liquids. https://www.xypex.com/about/crystalline-technology
