LIQUID WATERPROOFING ADMIXTURE.
CONQOR B50 - Sustainable Concrete Waterproofing
What is CONQOR B50
CONQOR B50 is a sustainable concrete waterproofing admixture
CONQOR B50 is a colloidal silica concrete waterproofing admixture, that, once mixed in the concrete, transforms moisture in the porosity into a hydrogel – offering superior sub-surface concrete waterproofing.
CONQOR B50 is processed and modified from a sustainable geothermal process that have already been used for power generation.
Independent testing proves that CONQOR B50 complies with AS1478, and it passes AS1012.21 VPV for 32mpa, proving permeability reduction.
CONQOR B50 performs in the most demanding environments to waterproof concrete structures – exposed or submerged, above or below ground. Offering complete surety in infrastructure, marine environments, basements, below-grade piles and foundations, CONQOR B50 admixture is the answer.

Why choose CONQOR B50?
CONQOR B50 is a unique concrete waterproofing admixture, sourced from a sustainable byproduct of the thermal energy process.
CONQOR B50 ADMIXTURE
CONCRETE WATERPROOFING
- Depth of penetration of water under pressure, 10m shows a minimum 100% improvement on the control
- GWT Field Permeability – 50m shows a minimum 100% improvement on the control
- CONQOR B50 is a vital part of specific BASE-TECT® and TOP-TECT® variants
CONQOR B50 ADMIXTURE
CONCRETE SUSTAINABILITY
- Not a by-product of harmful coal-burning processes like other silica products
- Helps concrete structures last longer, reducing the need for new concrete, which is a high Contributor to coal burning in the cement manufacture process

COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH AND SHRINKAGE
- In-the-field and lab testing shows no negative effect on strengths, and in most mixes gives a slight increase.
- No effect on drying shrinkage.
How CONQOR B50 Admixture works.
The core technology is colloidal silica hydrogel. When mixed into the concrete, the nano-size colloidal silica reacts with the calcium hydroxide in the pore water to form a stable, polymerized, colloidal silica hydrogel in the pores and porosity, once the concrete reaches initial set.
This hydrogel over time reaches strengths similar to Calcium Silicate Hydrate (cement paste). Its most important function though, at any age, is that it stops moisture migration through the concrete porosity. Once the reaction has taken place, and the hydrogel is formed, it is permanent and cannot be reversed or removed, it becomes part of the concrete itself.
