Chem-Crete® PAVIX® CCC® 100

Chem-Crete® PAVIX® CCC® 100, is a patented Dual-Crystalline, penetrating concrete and masonry sealer. It is a water-based and environmentally-friendly waterproofing product that combines hygroscopic and hydrophilic crystals for pore-blocking function, and hydrophobic material for pore lining. It is designed to protect surfaces from the delaminating effects of water, moisture saturation, freeze/thaw, Alkali Silica Reactions (ASR), chloride-ion penetration and ice adhesion. PAVIX is ideal for exterior or interior concrete and masonry surfaces and can be applied to both positive or negative hydrostatic pressure sides of concrete. PAVIX enhances concrete sustainability, significantly reduces maintenance costs and increases concrete and masonry life cycles.

Description

  • Topical concrete protection for green and cured concrete.
  • Patented dual-crystalline technology that works through two actions: pore blocking and pore lining.

What It Is

Concrete Protection Against Water, Moisture & Ice and Durability Solution by Pore Blocking and Lining Using Topical Treatment for Green & Cured Concrete for Airports, Highways & Bridges Structures.

When to Use It

Use on green or cured concrete exposed to water, de-icing salts, freeze/thaw conditions or chloride-related durability concerns.

Pair with MCE for new mix protection; repair products where deterioration already requires repair.

Key Benefits

  • One Application
    Designed as a one-time treatment.
  • Non-Film-Forming
    No surface coating to peel or wear away.
  • Zero VOC
    No silane / siloxane chemistry.

Advantages, Features & Benefits

  • Application on Fresh and Hardened Concrete: Suitable for use on both green (freshly placed) concrete and fully cured concrete surfaces.
  • Long-Term Internal Waterproofing: Helps restrict water penetration and moisture movement through concrete, providing protection against hydrostatic pressure from either side of the structure.
  • Significantly Lower Water Permeability: Testing at 200 psi (1.38 MPa), in accordance with CRD-48-92, demonstrates a reduction in water permeability by 2 to 3 orders of magnitude.
  • Advanced Water-Repellent Performance: Develops hydrophobic properties that help prevent water, jet fuel, and oil from wetting and saturating treated concrete. The treatment increases the water contact angle on concrete surfaces to greater than 90°, with the product page illustrating a contact angle of 105° on treated concrete.

Uses

  • Airports: Runways, taxiways, and aircraft parking aprons.
  • Roads and Highways: Concrete pavements, bridges, and roadside barriers.
  • Concrete Infrastructure: Tunnels, parking structures, dams, and retaining walls.
  • Seaports and Marine Facilities: Concrete seawalls, docks, and piers exposed to challenging environmental conditions.
  • Railway Infrastructure: Concrete railway ties and sleepers, as well as station platforms.
  • Exterior and Interior Flatwork: Parking areas, driveways, sidewalks, and patios.
  • Precast Concrete Products: Tilt-up concrete walls, manholes, and precast pipes.

Application

Limitations: Do not apply PAVIX in the following cases:
  • If the concrete surface temperature falls below 40°F (5°C).
  • If the area has been previously treated with sealing agents unless the sealers are removed by chemical or mechanical means.
Application: Fully cured or existing concrete: Repair and seal joints, cracks, and voids greater than 1/16th inch prior to the application. Concrete surfaces must be clean and sound prior to application of the product. Proper cleaning will open the surface pores and capillaries to enhance the penetration process. Compressed air or mechanical sweepers can be used to remove dust and loose particles from the surface. Flushing the area to be treated with water can improve the cleaning process. However, for heavily contaminated areas special concrete cleaning agents such as Chem-Crete CONCLEAN CCC060 can be used to remove dirt, grease, and oil from those areas.   Broom finished concrete should be lightly dampened (NO STANDING WATER) prior to application to eliminate potential overlap lines.   Coverage: Apply at an average coverage rate of 150-200 ft2/gal (3.7-4.9 m2/liter) in one coat. Green/Plastic Concrete:
  1. Only consider an application when concrete finishing is completed and the disappearance of bleed water.
  2. Concrete should not be in duress and should be curing normally.
  3. Apply PAVIX uniformly and at an average coverage rate of 200 ft2/gallon (4.9 m2/L).
  4. DO NOT allow the PAVIX to puddle or pool.
  5. Application of membrane-forming curing compound within 20 minutes from the initial PAVIX application.
  6. Apply the membrane curing compound at the manufacturer’s recommended coverage rate.
Cleaning: all tools and equipment must be cleaned with clean water immediately after use.

Storage

Two-year shelf life when stored in its original, unopened container in a cool, dry place. Always agitate the product before using. DO NOT ALLOW PRODUCT TO FREEZE. Repeated freezing and thawing may cause damage to the product.

Safety

As with all construction chemical products, adequate precautions and care must be taken during usage and storage.  Avoid direct contact with foodstuff, eyes, skin, and mouth.  Any contacted areas should be washed thoroughly with clean running water and soap.
