Application

SilQon OCTEO can serve as a surface modifier to generate hydrophobicity on materials such as concrete, glass, inorganic pigments, or mineral fillers. Furthermore, when diluted with an appropriate solvent, it can be used in formulating water-repellent products. Upon proper application, the formulated product will penetrate and provide water repellency by chemically reacting with the cementitious substrate. Treated substrates are hydrophobic and retain their original appearance.
