KingAdd 100WP®
Integral liquid waterproofing admixture for mortars.
SpecWorld has the Spec Pack, CSI specification and drawings for registered specifiers.
Overview
KingAdd 100WP is a liquid waterproofing admixture formulated from selected polymers designed to reduce the permeability in cement based mortars and screeds. KingAdd 100WP blocks the natural pores in the mix and imparts hydrophobic properties which reduce water permeability.
Where to use
KingAdd 100WP is waterproofing admixture for use in all cement based mortars, and screeds. KingAdd 100WP improves the cohesion and workability of mortar mixes.
Why use it
- Improves durability by minimizing penetration of moisture and water dissolved salts.
- Improves workability and the cohesion of mortar mixes by entraining microscopic air bubbles that work as lubricant.
- Reduces efforescence and pigment leaching from cement mortars.
- Chloride free.
COMPATIBILITY
KingAdd 100WP can be used with all types of Portland cement and cement replacement materials. KingAdd 100WP is compatible with other KINGKRETE admixtures used in the same mortar mix. If more than one type of admixture is to be used in mortar mix, they must be added to the mortar separately.

DOSAGE
The guidance dosage of KingAdd 100WP is 1.0 - 1.4 liters/ 20 liters of mixing water in the mix.
Representative trials should be conducted to determine the optimum dosage of KingAdd 100WP to meet the performance requirements by using the materials and conditions in actual use.
EFFECTS OF OVER DOSAGE
Overdosing of KingAdd 100WP will increase air entrainment which may cause a reduction in the compressive strength.
