The DensiCrete chemical penetrates deeply into the concrete matrix, the depth of penetration is based on the amount of DensiCrete applied as well as the compressive strength of the concrete. Normally on 4000 PSI concrete 1 1/2 to 2 coats of DensiCrete will penetrate to a depth of 2 1/2 to 3 inches based on the absorption matrix of the concrete.

Once the DensiCrete has reached it's maximum depth it begins to activate the unconverted alkali in the concrete and creates calcium silicate. The wetting and dispersion agents as well as the silicates in DensiCrete create a jell that slowly pushes out contaminates to the surface of the cementitious material.

As the DensiCrete jell moves to the surface, it performs two important tasks

• It seals micro cracks and bonds the cementitious matrix by forming calcium silicate, curing itself and waterproofing the matrix.
   
• It displaces and/or pushes out to the surface oils, salts, chlorides, carbonation, carbon based fluids, and iron oxide caused by corroded rebar.

The final results are that DensiCrete creates a water seal but still allows concrete to breath and remain hydrated, increases both compressive and flexural strength, seals micro cracks, densifies concrete, stops carbonation penetration and damage, protects rebar from corrosion, kills anaerobic microbes, improves freeze-thaw resistance, removes chlorides (salt) from existing concrete, significantly retards chloride penetration and damage, waterproofs, it's non-toxic, non-flammable, water-based, zero-voc and environmentally friendly!
