VARIPHOB® CC 4108

1 of 15 products in this brand

VARIPHOB® CC 4108 is a 45% active silicone/silane emulsion that can be diluted with water to achieve the desired solids for treatment. Its specialized formulation allows it to penetrate absorbent surfaces as an impregnation. It is compatible with fresh mortar and concrete admixtures. This product reduces capillary water absorption, increases surface hydrophobicity, and preserves the appearance of cement-based building materials, alkaline mineral substrates, and natural stones.

VARIPHOB® CC 4108 is very versatile. Applications include:

  • A hydrophobic additive for paints and coatings
  • As effective impregnation of mineral surfaces and natural stones
  • As additives for the mass hydrophobisation of cement-based building materials

Recommendation for Use

VARIPHOB® CC 4108 typically diluted to between 5% to 10% actives for application. The surfaces treated should be free of dirt, oil, and water. The product can be applied by brushing, rolling or spraying until the surface is completely covered and the product starts to run down. This will ensure good coverage to achieve deep sufficient penetration into the concrete pores. The product should be applied at above 5°C [40° F] and wil require several hours to dry and give hydrophobing effect, completely cure can take up to a week, depending on conditions, with hydrophobicity increasing over time.
