IMPERMEABILITY

Kalmatron® KF-A creates a homogenous mass of concrete with 97% micro pores and only 3% macro pores. Carbon Dioxide gas is normally produced from concrete and it must build up a bubble of a certain “critical mass” before it is able to rise to the surface of the concrete. The result is 70% macro pores and 30% micro pores. Concrete with KF-A produces Acetylene gas which is released as soon as it is formed, resulting in 97% micro pores and only 3% macro pores. Liquids such as water, alkalis, acids, and oil products are unable to penetrate the concrete as their own tensions prevent it. More technical information on a multitude of benefits achieved with KF-A can be reviewed by viewing How Kalmatron® Works.
