SILRES® BS 17 is a solventless concentrate that is based on silanes and siloxanes. It is specifically used in water-diluted form for the hydrophobation (waterproofing) of silicate-based mineral construction materials that are produced in plants. One of the key advantages of SILRES® BS 17 is that it is a water-free and solventless silicone concentrate. It can be easily diluted with drinking water without the need for sophisticated mixing devices. This allows for convenient and efficient dilution, making the application process simpler for users.

- Application Details
Drinking water is suitable for dilution of SILRES® BS 17. When mixing the SILRES® BS 17 into the water, the mixture is stirred briefly. The dilution cause to finely divided opalescent microemulsions.. In general, good hydrophobic results are achieved when SILRES® BS 17 is diluted 1:50 to 1:100. The application by decreasing active content should be regularly adjusted to the required concentration. Preliminary tests are always required for the determination of the correct dilution ratio.
