Description
ZycoSil+ is a Water Repellent which 100% reactive organosilane nano waterproofing sealer that penetrates up to 2 mm deep into siliceous substrates. It converts surfaces from hydrophilic to hydrophobic, preventing water ingress while remaining breathable. UV-resistant, non-leachable, and peel-off free.
Features and Benefits
- Organosilane Technology
- Reactive, Penetrative & Permanent
- Breathable & UV Resistant
- Protects against Algae and Fungal Growth
- Waterproofs Vertical and Horizontal Surfaces
- Protects Substrate from Deterioration due to Weathering
Application Area
- All exposed surfaces like clay roof tiles, tile joints, IPS layers, walkways, paved surfaces
- Basement, Sunks, Mother slabs, Pre Stone Cladding, Priming before IPS / Plastering / Tiles
- Stones, Plastered & Concrete structures
- Exposed Bricks/ Fair faced concrete
Packaging
250 ml, 1 Ltr, 5 Ltr
Coverage
- Horizontal : 24-40 m² (260-430 ft²)
- Vertical : 60-100 m² (645-1075 ft²)

Mechanism of action
- ZycoSil+ penetrates up to approximately 2 mm into the substrate and converts the siliceous surface rich with hydrophilic silanol groups to hydrophobic alkyl siloxane groups as per the reaction below: Si─OH Si─ OH─Si─R ─Si─R (alkyl) O H₂O (Evaporate) + +
- Complete drying is critical to complete the reaction and achieve water resistance. Surface tension of the hydrophobic surface created by ZycoSil+ will ensure that water remains on the surface & does not enter into the nano pores of cementitious surface due to surface tension effects.
- -OH groups make surface very hydrophilic (water loving):
High water permeability leads to water ingress in the building through seepage and deterioration of the plaster / concrete substrate. - Molecular level reaction (hydrophobic groups):
ZycoSil+ reacts upon contact with the surface and creates a permanently water repellent layer on its surface. The surface is subsequently rendered impermeable to water ingress.
Application Methodology
Application Instructions
- The substrate should be cured, dry and free from internal voids (honey combs).
- If honey combs are present, drill a hole and inject ZycoSil+ solution 1 : 20 in water. Allow it to dry and then inject a suitable grout to fill and close the hole.
- For substrates with oil, grease, fungal growth etc., clean and dry the surface thoroughly before application.
- ZycoSil+ should be diluted with potable water (TDS <1000 ppm) to obtain a clear transparent solution.
- The diluted solution should be liberally sprayed with low pressure until flood saturation is achieved.
- Flood saturation on horizontal surfaces means no further absorption of ZycoSil+ even after 5 minutes of saturation.
- On vertical surfaces apply ZycoSil+ from bottom to the top to eliminate drip-mark formation.
- To achieve full saturation on vertical surface, after repetitive light spray (3-4 times after 30-45 seconds) the solution should drip down the wall.
- Both applications are best done at a temperature between 10ºC (50°F) to 35ºC (95°F). It is best to do the application during the morning or evening hours to avoid peak heat of the Sun.
- For doing any Screeding / Plastering / Tiles / Paint Work on the treated surface, ZycoPrime+ (Acrylic Bonder) must be added to the ZycoSil+ Solution during preparation in the recommended ratio of 2 parts of ZycoPrime, 1 part of ZycoSil+ & 20 parts of water.
Storage and Shelf Life
- Best before 4 years from the date of manufacture, when stored in cool and dry place at original, unopened condition.
