Greenseal
Injection Grout is specially formulated
for grouting in structural cracks and
honeycomb concrete. It is cement based
compound supplied in powder form and formulated
from Portland cement, fine quartz sand,
active chemicals and a retarding agent
which will not saponify under wet and
alkaline conditions.
The chemicals are capable of exchanging
atom groups with the nearby molecules
in a similar way to ion exchange used
in water softeners and can in this way
penetrate through the capillaries deep
into the substrate and here they react
as described above with the calcium oxides
and hydroxides also popularly called Free
Lime.
Structural cracks of concrete due to movement,
which have settled since can also be grouted
with Greenseal Injection Grout. Cracks
of 1/8 inches and above on walls that
are leaking can also be grouted using
the Greenseal Injection Grout.
Greenseal Injection Grout is especially
good for bonding physically and chemically
in the capillaries of these cracks and
honeycombs in the concrete where it also
expands and seals the cracks and honeycombs.
Greenseal Injection Grout is a high strength
grout specially formulated for grouting
purposes. Due to its non-shrink properties
it will not shrink when grouted into the
pores and capillaries of concrete. When
the pressure is achieved and the water
has evaporated the grout will remain in
these pores and actually fill up the pores
due to its expansion properties.
Further, there are chemicals in the grout
that will actually crystallise inside
these pores and capillaries, thus making
this area waterproof. The Greenseal Injection
Grout has good flow and will actually
flow into the crevices wherever it has
been grouted. This will ensure that all
crevices and fine cracks are all sealed
and waterproofed.
Test have shown that a honey comb area
of concrete grouted with Greenseal Injection
Grout when cored out and tested has a
higher strength than the original concrete. |
