SikaMix® AE-3

INTEGRAL WATER REPELLING AND EFFLORESCENCE REDUCING ADMIXTURE

SikaMix® AE-3 is a high performance integral water repelling and efflorescence reducing admixture for various concrete applications. SikaMix® AE-3 has been used to meet the requirement of ASTM E514, "Standard Test Method for Water Penetration and Leakage Through Masonry."

Use of SikaMix® AE-3 results in:  
  • Improved integral water repellency throughout the concrete structure,
  • Reduced efflorescence and improved appearance, uniformity and color vibrancy,
  • Reduced water absorption and chloride penetration,
  • Increased overall concrete durability and extended service life.
  In ready-mix applications, SikaMix® AE-3 can be used as an alternative to post-applied sealers.   SikaMix® AE-3 does not contain intentionally added chlorides.
