CIPADAM® S-40
- Chemical Family
- Silanes
CIPADAM® S-40 is a clear, penetrating, breathable sealer that contains a 40 percent solution of Silane in an alcohol carrier. CIPADAM S-40 chemically reacts with the concrete substrate and most masonry surfaces to produce a long lasting water repellent effect. This material's small molecular structure allows for maximum penetration into any siliceous material to form an alkali resistant polysiloxane.

Excellent resistance to water intrusion; Excellent resistance to chloride ion ingress; Breathable; No change in surface appearance; High resistance to alkali attack; Reduces the effects of efflorescence, mildew, and stains on vertical concrete and masonry structures; Meets the requirements of OTC (V.O.C. <350gm/L)
- Clean Up
- Clean up with CPD® Xylol
- Coverage
Porosity and texture of the concrete and masonry surface will affect the amount of material necessary for effective treatment; Always test on the actual surface to get precise consumption rates; Concrete: 3-7m²/L (120-285 ft²/U.S. gal.) depending on porosity
- Shelf LIfe
Three years from date of manufacture when stored in original unopened container, and under normal warehouse conditions
- Application
CIPADAM® S-40 should be applied as packaged - do not dilute or alter material; Preferred method of application is with low pressure (20 psi) airless spray equipment or with heavily saturated brush or roller; Sprayer should be fitted with solvent resistant hoses and gaskets; When using brushes or rollers, care should be taken to ensure that enough solution is applied; Apply sufficient material to thoroughly saturate the surface making sure to brush out excess material that does not penetrate
- Limitations
Not intended for below-grade waterproofing; It can be applied at temperatures down to -7°C (20°F) provided no ice or frost exist in or on the surface; Do not apply if the ambient temperature of the surface exceeds 38°C (100°F); Do not apply if rain is expected within 4 hours; If rain has preceded the application, the surface should be allowed to dry for at least 24 hours; This material should be stored in sealed containers and kept away from extreme heat
- Maintanance
Chemical spills, salts and abrasives should be removed from the surfaces as soon as possible.
- Precaution
This product contains blended solvents and alcohol should be handled accordingly; Do not use near fire or extreme heat and provide good ventilation to avoid buildup of solvent fumes; Applicators should wear approved NIOSH/MSHA approved respirators; When applying to exteriors of occupied buildings, all exterior air conditioning vents should be covered during application and air handling equipment should be turned off during application to avoid solvent odors within the building; Clothing which may become contaminated with CIPADAM® S-40 should be changed as quickly as possible
