The use of AQURON 300 admixture in the concrete of this new build is a testament to the engineers and builders for creating a structure that will last for years to come. AQURON 300 is a waterproofing and durability admixture that offers superior protection against harsh chemical attacks and corrosion caused by the processing of lithium.
This admixture is added to the concrete mixture during the construction of the foundation, where it works to enhance the durability of the concrete, providing a long-lasting solution that is resistant to wear and tear. The use of AQURON 300 in the concrete mixture is an excellent example of how modern technology can be used to create structures that are both robust and efficient.
In addition to AQURON 300, the builders also opted for the AQURON 7000 spray-applied treatment, which was applied to the concrete from day one to prevent cracking and ensure long-lasting protection. AQURON 7000 is a high-performance concrete treatment that penetrates deeply into the surface, providing a reliable barrier against moisture, chloride attack, and other harmful substances.
With AQURON 7000, the concrete is fortified to withstand various environmental factors and resist the effects of aging and deterioration. This ensures the longevity of the structure and reduces the need for costly and time-consuming repairs and maintenance down the line.
Overall, the combination of AQURON 300 admixture and AQURON 7000 solution provides a reliable and effective way to protect the concrete and reinforcing steel of the structure. Together, they create a unique and effective solution for concrete structures that require maximum protection against chemical attacks and other environmental factors.
By using AQURON 300 and AQURON 7000 together, you can have peace of mind knowing that your concrete structure is well-protected against a range of harsh chemical attacks and other environmental factors. This means that your structure will remain durable and long-lasting for many years to come.
