Silane Siloxane Coating - Sikagard®-705 L

Silane based reactive water repellent impregnation.

Sikagard®-705 L is a one-component low viscosity, solvent free, reactive impregnation for concrete and cementitious substrates based on silane technology with 99% active ingredient. Sikagard®-705 L complies with the highest requirements of EN 1504-2 for hydrophobic Impregnation (penetration depth class II & resistance to freeze-thaw cycles and chloride ion penetration) and is tested in accordance with NCRHP 224 Series II & IV.

• Excellent penetration (~100% active content).
• Economical and easy to use.
• Reduces capillary water absorption, protection against driving rain and splashing on vertical areas.
• Reduction of absorption of aggressive or deleterious agents dissolved in water (i.e. de-icing salts or chloride from marine environment).
• Non vapor barrier.
• Long term efficiency, deep penetration.
• Increases the resistance of concrete to freeze and thaw cycles and de-icing salts.
• Low VOC content.
• Resistant to sea water.
• Ready and easy to use

Usage

Sikagard®-705 L is used as water-repellent penetrating sealer (hydrophobic treatment) for absorbent substrates such as:

• Parking decks
• Bridge decks
• Concrete highway surfaces
• Ramps and Barriers
• Cooling Towers
• Stadiums
• Natural stone substrates
• Many other traffic bearing/reinforced concrete substrates and structures

Advantages

• Reduction of absorption of aggressive or deleterious agents dissolved in water (i.e. de-icing salts or chloride from marine environment).
• Non vapor barrier.
• Long term efficiency, deep penetration.
• Increases the resistance of concrete to freeze and thaw cycles and de-icing salts.
• Low VOC content.
• Resistant to sea water.
• Ready and easy to use

Technical Information

Application

Application Information

Substrate Moisture Content

< 5-6 % when measured with Tramex

Waiting / Recoat Times

Can be overcoated with water and solvent based polymer paint - contact the proposed paint manufacturer for recommendations.
Sikagard®-705 L can be used as a water repellent primer under many Sikagard® protective coatings inclusive of water based dispersion. Penetration of water is thus prevented at possible weak spots or in the eventof damage to the top coat and the risk of consequential damages such as paint flaking can be reduced.

Waiting time: Minimum 5 hours, maximum 1 week.

Curing Treatment

Sikagard®-705 L does not require any special curing but must be protected from rain for at least 4 hours at 68 °F (20 °C).

Consumption

Coverage

Dependent on absorbency of the substrate as well as the required penetration depth: 240-360 sq.ft./gal per coat

Application Steps

MIXING

Sikagard®-705 L is supplied ready for use and must not be diluted.

APPLICATION

Sikagard®-705 L is applied using a low-pressure spray, brush or roller, in a single pass from bottom up taking care not to let the product run. Apply subsequent coats “wet on wet”. On horizontal application, avoid ponding on the surface.
