Tech Shield System Component

Efflorescence Control Agent, Integral Water Repellent, Dry-Cast Plasticizer

ConTec TS-923 Liquid Admixture is formulated to enhance the overall integrity of concrete masonry products while minimizing production cost. When used properly this unique admixture chemically reacts with cement and its water repellent components resulting in the formation of permanent bonds within the concrete. The use of this product provides higher cement efficiency, enhanced efflorescence control, and long-lasting resistance to moisture ingress. TS-923 is a Tech Shield Water Repellent Admixture System component for specified concrete masonry construction.
