AkvaVIS S400 — elastic polyurethane injection resin
Low-viscosity resin for sealing dry and damp cracks and joints in reinforced concrete and cut-off waterproofing of masonry; penetrates cracks from 0.2 mm.
AkvaVIS P is a two-component hydroactive solvent-free polyurethane foam: it starts to react 15–45 s after meeting water and expands up to 30 times. It is pumped in through packers to stop active leaks in buried joints, cracks wider than 0.2 mm and at service penetrations, to fill voids or to stop pressurised seepage before injecting AkvaVIS S400 resin. The elastic foam remains leak-tight under hydrostatic pressure in moving cracks. Work is carried out at air and substrate temperatures not below +5 °C.

|---|---|
| Type | injection waterproofing |
| Use | foundations and basements, tunnels and metro, tanks and pools, leak repair, joints and junctions |
| Base | two-component hydroactive elastic polyurethane injection foam, solvent-free |
| Packaging | tin pails: component A — 20 kg, component B — 24 kg |
| Application method | mix A and B 100 : 120 by mass (1 : 1 by volume) with a low-speed drill (300 rpm) for 1 min; before work, caulk the crack/penetration showing water with a hydraulic plug; holes are drilled at an angle of 30–45° crossing the crack/joint, packer spacing 20–25 cm, often in a staggered pattern; clean the holes with compressed air or water; Ø10 mm packers; one-component piston pump; increase the injection pressure gradually, not above Pmax = 10 atm × concrete class / 3 (for B45 — not more than 150 atm); inject from bottom to top until completely filled (checked at the adjacent packer); after polymerisation remove the packers, plug the holes with a polymer-cement compound; flush tools with “AkvaVIS Cleaner” |
| Application temperature | not below +5 °C (air and substrate) |
| Curing | reaction start on contact with water 15–45 s; foaming time 60–125 s; tack-free in 3 min |
