MORTAR-IC

MORTAR-IC is a cementitious, ready-mixed waterproof repairing and sealing mortar that is designed to be used in conjunction with AQUAFIN-IC(IntegraCoat). It consists of rapid setting Portland cement, specially treated quartz sand and a compound of active chemicals which resist positive or negative side water pressure.

MORTAR-IC contains active waterproofing chemicals which react with moisture and free lime in the mortar and concrete, creating insoluble crystalline complexes. These crystalline complexes, similar to a gel which grows in the presence of water, block the capillaries of the MORTAR-IC and minor shrinkage cracks, thus preventing water ingress. Chemical activation begins when the MORTAR-IC powder is mixed with water and may take several days to completely block the capillaries depending on ambient temperature and environmental conditions. The waterproofing chemicals remain active for the life of the structure, permanently sealing it from water penetration.

• NSF/ANSI/CAN Standard 61 approved for potable water
• Applied to the positive or negative water pressure side of a structure
• Resists strong hydrostatic pressure
• Post sealing effect of shrinkage cracks up to 1/64” (0.4mm) together with AQUAFIN-IC (IntegraCoat)
• Easy to use - needs only to be mixed with water prior to application
• Not a vapor barrier, lets concrete “breathe” *Ideal for filling bugholes and repairing small areas of spalled and honeycombed concrete
• Applied to moist concrete
• No odor - no fumes, inorganic - no polymers.

MORTAR-IC is highly recommended for filling reglets, holes, and routed cracks, creating coves, and for minor patching prior to the application of AQUAFIN=IC (IntegreCoat). It is commonly used in:
*Basements (interior walls)
*Elevator pits
*Drinking water (potable water), reclaimed water, wastewater and stormwater treatment plants and water holding structures (tanks)
*Parking garages (interior walls)
