and wherein the alkyltrialkoxysilane (A) is present alone or in a mixture of several alkyltrialkoxylsilanes or as a partial condensate of one or more alkyltrialkoxysilanes.
The present invention relates to a hydrophobizing dispersion gel and to a process for the preparation of the hydrophobizing dispersion gel and to its use for the deep hydrophobization of mineral materials.
Cement-bound materials, such as reinforced concrete, which are found in concrete structures, are exposed to various environmental effects due to their use. Of particular importance for the functionality and durability of these materials and the components and works produced therefrom is the resistance to the inclusion of aqueous salt solutions, such as deicing salts. The commercial de-icing salt consists largely of cooking or rock salt, d. H. Sodium chloride (NaCl). The contact of concrete components with these aqueous chloride solutions causes them to be transported by capillary suction into the material edge zone. If the chlorides reach the steel reinforcement, under certain conditions corrosion processes can be triggered which lead to the loss of stability.
In order to prevent these transport processes, it is known to equip the material edge zone with organosilicon compounds, so-called alkyltrialkoxysilanes (silanes), water-repellent (hydrophobic). This leads to an impregnation effect on water or electrolytes dissolved in the water, such as, for example, salt salts. Hydrophobic or hydrophobic impregnation means a treatment of the concrete to produce a water-repellent surface. The pores and capillaries are lined but not filled. No film is formed on the surface of the concrete. The external appearance changes little or not at all.
Under normal climatic conditions, a thin film of water forms on the inner surfaces of the capillaries of cement-bound materials, or the pores are filled with an alkaline solution (pore solution). The silanes are applied undiluted or in the form of aqueous systems to the surface of the material. From there they are transported to the material edge zone (see ).
During transport, complex chemical reactions take place, whereby in principle two substeps can be distinguished. In the first step, a solvolysis (hydrolysis) R ·Si (OR) 3 + H 2 O →R ·Si (OH) 3 + 3ROH takes place, which proceeds to form silanols and alcohol, for example ethanol (see ).
The water-soluble reaction products (silanol, alcohol) migrate through the silane / water film interface. Due to their chemical structure, these components reduce the interfacial tension and thus also influence the transport of the silanes. This means that the chemical reactions influence the transport and the transport through formation of local equilibrium influences the chemical reactions (reactive transport). The silanols react in a second step with each other or with the terminal OH groups of the CSH gel (calcium silicate hydrates in colloidal form), which essentially builds up the cement paste. These reactions lead to the formation of a thin, hydrophobic silicone resin film (polysiloxane) on the inner surfaces of the cementitious material (see ).
Overall, hydrophobing is a generally recognized, high-performance surface protection for reinforced concrete structures exposed to moisture and the pollutants contained in it (see the German Federal Committee for Reinforced Concrete (DAfStb) DIN EN 1504-9 Products and systems for the protection and repair of concrete structures - Definitions, Requirements, quality control and evaluation of conformity - Part 9: General principles for the use of products and systems, German version EN 1504-9: 2008, Publication date: 2008-11, Beuth-Verlag, Berlin, DAfStb-Richtlinie - Schutz und Instandsetzung von Concrete Components (Repair Directive) - Part 1: General Regulations and Planning Principles, Part 2: Construction Products and Application, Part 3: Requirements for Operations and Monitoring of Performance; Part 4: Test Methods, Beuth-Verlag, Publication date: 2001-10, Beuth -Verlag, Berlin).
The effectiveness and durability of a hydrophobing depends largely on the penetration depth and the active ingredient content in the material edge zone. Both are in turn determined by the contact time between the silane and the porous material or by the course of the reactive transport. In the conventional products, based on an undiluted silane (100% silane), the contact time is only very short, as it runs as a low viscosity liquid on the material surface or by the high volatility under practical conditions (eg surface temperatures up to approx 70 ° C) evaporates quickly. Penetration depths of more than 2 mm can not be realized in a practical application (A. Gerdes, transport and chemical reaction of organosilicon compounds in the concrete edge zone, Building Materials Report No 15, AEDIFICATIO Verlag, Freiburg i. B., (2001)).
A number of means of individual or different, often also polymeric, organosilicon compounds are known for the impregnation, hydrophobing or deep hydrophobing of porous building materials, concrete structures and reinforced concrete structures. These agents are in the form of aqueous emulsions, creams, gels or compositions containing mineral thickening agents.
In order to avoid the use of organic solvents, but at the same time to reduce the proportion of active ingredient (silane), low-viscosity, aqueous systems, so-called emulsions, were developed. For example, the European patent contains EP 0 538 555 B1 described emulsion alkoxysilanes, silane surfactants, buffering substances and optionally anionic surfactants (Degussa). A disadvantage of these low-viscosity emulsions is a too short contact or service life, for example on vertical building surfaces or bridge bases and similar surfaces. The active substance in the preparation takes a certain amount of time to penetrate into the mineral building material underground. The emulsion runs or drips too fast or is lost by evaporation to the environment. Studies have also shown that the emulsions in young concrete break after a short time. Then, the water present as excess solvent penetrates into the material and blocks the pore space for the silane. In various formulations, penetration depths of more than 2 mm could not be achieved despite repeated application under practical conditions, not even in laboratory experiments (A. Gerdes and FH Wittmann, hydrophobing of reinforced concrete - Part 1: Transport and chemical reactions of organosilicon compounds in the concrete edge zone, Int. Z. Bauinstandsetzen, 9, 41-64 (2003)). In addition to the low penetration depth results in a further disadvantage that only an insufficient hydrophobing performance is achieved. The result is a necessary repetition of the procedure. In a repetition, however, little / no transport occurs, since there is now an aqueous system on a hydrophobic surface. Such post-treatments are costly and also waste valuable raw materials.
Later, highly viscous water-based systems were developed to significantly extend the contact time. One of these products is the type "cream" described in the European patent EP 1 154 971 B1 is disclosed (Wacker AG). The water-based, stable cream is used to waterproof building materials by applying them to the surfaces of mineral materials or as a binder (added directly to the fresh mortar) and primers in building coatings. The main components of the cream are C 1 -C 20 -alkyl-C 2 -C 6 -alkoxysilanes, alkoxy-containing organo (poly) siloxanes, alkylpolyglycol ethers or polyvinyl alcohol as nonionic emulsifier and 1 to 95% by weight of organic solvents, such as alkanes, gasoline hydrocarbons , longer chain alcohols and ethers. In addition, the cream contains as an additive still hydrophobic fumed silica.
A disadvantage of the use of such cream compositions is the too low depth migration of the active ingredient components. In particular, cream emulsions tend to break on the surface, ie, aqueous and organic phases separate. The penetrating water causes the pore space is at least partially blocked. As a result, the transport of the active ingredient is prevented in deeper areas of the material edge zone, ie a penetration depth of> 4 mm is not feasible under practical conditions. According to practical experience here are the maximum orderable amounts are 400 g / m 2 , otherwise slipping occurs. Accordingly, the actual goal of deep migration is not achieved, although such creams have higher contact times due to their consistency. However, the penetration depths of up to 4 mm to be achieved are not sufficient to prevent the saline solution from breaking through the hydrophobized edge zone in the long term under very high loads (eg harbors, bridges, underground garages), as studies have shown (A. Gerdes and Z. Huang, On the Use of Hydrophobizations for the Protection of "Off Shore" Buildings, Int. Z. Bauinstandsetzen, 9, 293-306 (2004)).
Higher penetration depths of 4-6 mm can be achieved with highly viscous, water-free products ("gel"). In the European patent specification EP 0 751 922 B1 (Karlsson) describes an anhydrous gel and a method for treating in particular concrete structures with a hydrophobing substance (silanes / siloxanes, partially isobutyltriethoxysilane and ethanol as a polar solvent).
The gelatinous composition consists of the hydrophobing substance, essentially of solvent-free silanes / siloxanes, and a carrier medium which is an organophilic layer lattice mineral with swelling behavior, such as bentonite or montmorillonite. By capillary action, the hydrophobing substance draws into the mineral materials to be treated while the carrier medium remains on the surface. These gel-like, anhydrous compositions with organophilic layered lattice minerals like bentonite as gelling agent, although the active ingredient penetrate deeper into the material edge zone through longer contact times, however, there are also other, different types of application deficiencies. Since the gelling agent as a mineral solid can not penetrate into the treatment surface, it leaves there undesirable discoloration, which is problematic, for example, exposed concrete surfaces. On the other hand, a considerable proportion of active ingredient in the organophilic layered lattice mineral remains unused, which is thus lost for the application and beyond uncontrolled enters the environment. The consumption to achieve a penetration depth of at least 6 mm with 800-1000 g / m 2 is relatively high.
In addition to formulating surface protection systems based solely on the use of organosilicon compounds, combination products have also been developed. Thus Degussa AG describes in the European patent application EP 1 308 428 A2 an aqueous emulsion based on organosilicon compounds, and a method of protecting reinforced concrete against corrosion of the steel reinforcement. The agent is either applied to a reinforced concrete surface or admixed with the concrete during the manufacturing process. The aqueous emulsion contains as essential components in addition to at least one organosilane or organosiloxane or partial condensates thereof, further aminoalkylsilanes or - siloxanes, alkaline earth metal salts of dinonylnaphthalenesulfonic acid and amino alcohols, such as dimethylaminoethanol or diethylaminoethanol. Diisotridecyl adipate, mineral oil, petroleum hydrocarbons, alcohols, water, emulsifiers, rheological aids and thickening agents are also contained on average as additional components. In the subsequent application, the emulsion is applied to the concrete surface, for example, by brushing in an amount of more than 50 g / m 2 to more than 200 g / m 2 . With regard to the penetration depth and thus the effectiveness of this system, however, considerable doubts are appropriate, since for a corrosion protection of the corresponding active ingredient must reach the reinforcement. The reason for this is the moisture distribution in massive components exposed to the environment. Rather, uneven reinforcement overlays can increase the risk of corrosion due to the formation of local elements. Due to the interaction between the cement stone phase and the chemical compounds (sorption) as well as the expected moisture distribution in the concrete edge zone under real conditions (high water saturation at a distance of about 1-2 cm), no high penetration depths are to be expected.
Overall, all previously known systems have defects such as material losses or high material costs (necessary multiple use) and in particular too low contact times and too small penetration depths. Even gel and cream compositions, which due to their consistency give longer contact times with greater penetration depths, do not allow deep migration of the active ingredient components or make this possible only with a disproportionately large amount of material.
The requirements for products and systems for the protection and repair of concrete structures are regulated in the standard EN 1504 (in Germany DIN EN 1504). With regard to hydrophobing, a distinction is made between classes I and II, class I being characterized by a penetration depth of <10 mm and class II by a penetration depth of the hydrophobizing agent of ≥ 10 mm.
However, such penetration depths depend heavily on the nature of the material, especially on the porosity and water saturation. The permeability of the concrete increases exponentially with the water-cement value W / Z value. The W / Z value for reinforced concrete is generally between 0.4 and 0.6. However, with a W / Z value of 0.7, the concrete required for the tests according to EN 1504 is significantly more porous and receptive than conventional concretes (En 1504-2: Products and systems for the protection and repair of concrete structures - Definitions, requirements , Quality control and assessment of conformity - Part 2: Surface protection systems for concrete, Publication date: 2005-01, Beuth-Verlag, Berlin)).
To compensate for these deviations, deep hydrophobization is understood below to mean an effective penetration depth of ≥ 6 mm. "Effective penetration depth" means that sufficient drug is present at the appropriate depth of the treated material to reduce capillary suction by more than 90% compared to untreated material. For a silane-dependent minimum active ingredient content is necessary. For isooctyltriethoxysilane based product for this purpose at least
3 mg of the final polysiloxane per gram of concrete required at the appropriate depth. This can be analogously transferred to other silanes or resulting polysiloxanes.
The object of the present invention was to provide a composition for deep hydrophobization which overcomes the disadvantages mentioned above.
This object is achieved with a hydrophobizing dispersion gel according to claim 1 and by a production method according to claim 12 and a use according to claim 14. Further preferred embodiments will be apparent from the dependent claims.

A "dispersion gel" refers to a finely dispersed (colloidal) system of at least one solid phase and one liquid phase.

The alcohol and the polyether-modified trisiloxane are each alone or together.
The alkyltrialkoxysilane (A) has as alkyl group unbranched or branched C 1 -C 16 -alkyl groups, which are preferably selected from methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, iso-propyl, n-butyl, isobutyl , n-pentyl, iso-pentyl, n-hexyl, iso-hexyl, n-octyl, iso-octyl, n-decyl, iso-decyl, n-dodecyl, iso-dodecyl, , n-tetradecyl, iso-tetradecyl, n-hexadecyl and iso-hexadecyl groups, with an iso-octyl group (2,4,4-trimethylpentyl radical) being particularly preferred. Alkyoxy groups which contain identical or different unbranched or branched C 1 -C 6 -alkoxy groups, which are preferably selected from methoxy, Ethoxy, n-propoxy, iso-propoxy, n-butoxy, iso-butoxy, n-pentoxy, or n-hexoxy groups, with ethoxy groups being particularly preferred.
In a particularly preferred embodiment, the alkyltrialkoxysilane is (A) (2,4,4-trimethyl-pentyl) -triethoxysilane.
The branched polyacrylic acid (B) is a crosslinked copolymer of acrylic acid, which is preferably polyacrylic acid crosslinked with pentaerythritol triallyl ether. In particular, branched polyacrylic acid, which is also marketed under the trade name Carbopol ® from Lubrizol is. Particularly preferred is the use of Carbopol ETD 2020.
In the case of the non-surfactant amine oxide (C), optionally two of the radicals R 1 , R 2 and R 3 together form a saturated ring which optionally contains one further oxygen atom. The radicals R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are independently of one another optionally substituted by an -N + (R 1 , R 2 ) -O - group, in which R 1 and R 2 have the already mentioned meaning. (C) is preferably selected from the group of tris (2-hydroxyethyl) amine oxide, tris (2-hydroxypropyl) amine oxide, methyl bis (2-hydroxyethyl) amine oxide, ethyl bis (2-hydroxyethyl) amine oxide, dimethyl-2 -hydroxyethylamineoxide, diethyl-2-hydroxyethylamineoxide, dimethyl-2-hydroxypropylamineoxide, N-methylmorpholineoxide, N-methylpiperidineoxide, N, N, N ', N'-tetrakis (2-hydroxypropyl) ethylenediamine dioxide, N, N, N ', N'-tetrakis (2-hydroxyethyl) ethylenediamine dioxide, N- (2-hydroxyethyl) -morpholine oxide and N- (2,3-dihydroxypropyl) -morpholine oxide.

The nonionic surfactant (E) is selected from polyethylene glycol monoalkyl ethers with unbranched or branched, saturated or unsaturated C 6 -C 22 -alkyl groups and 2 to 30 EO units (EO = ethylene oxide), preferably selected from the group of octaethylene glycol monodecyl ether, Octaethylene glycol monododecyl ether, polyethylene glycol monoiso tridecyl ether as a mixture of compounds with 5 to 20 EO units,

The stated components (B) to (F) are each independently contained as a single substance or as a mixture of different individual substances.
The amine oxides (C) and (D) together with the branched polyacrylic acid (B) and a part of the water (F) are the basic components of the dispersion gel. They form a first gel which forms the basic structure. The polyanionic polyacrylic acid (B) and the cationic equilibrium portion of the surfactant or non-surfactant amine oxides interact by protonation by means of polyacrylic acid.
The surfactant amine oxide (D) is also used, inter alia, to ensure a subsequent washability of, for example, disperse gel residues.
The surfactant (E) and the water (F), and optionally the additional alcohol, together with the silane (A) are able to stabilize the overall system because of their polar character and their ability to form hydrogen bonds.
For example, can be adjusted with water, as a compound with a strong, polar character, the particular desired viscosity of the preparation and permanently obtained when avoiding drying losses. If, however, such drying losses have occurred in the system, they can be corrected by adding water alone or by adding aqueous alcohol mixtures and the original state can be restored.
Crucial for the storage stability of the hydrophobizing dispersion gel in the preparation of the selection of the individual components and their percentage in the total system, and then the resulting pH, which is generally around the neutral point (pH = 6.5 to 7.5). This will be a Premature damage or decomposition of the organosilicon compounds during storage at normal ambient temperature (0 ° to 30 ° C) avoided.
The hydrophobizing dispersion gel must be prepared by a defined method. If, for example, a preparation without the component (A) is tried, this succeeds, but the subsequent incorporation of the active ingredient, d. H. Component (A) is no longer possible. The admixture remains as a separate phase. Only when the hydrophobizing agent (A) is present from the outset or not last in the production, it is possible to provide a storage-stable Dipersionsgel in which all components form a single, multiple system.
Preferably, the hydrophobic dispersion gel is prepared so that first the components (B) to (D) [branched polyacrylic acid, non-surfactant amine oxide, surfactant amine oxide] and up to 20% of component (F) [water], and optionally further additives Temperatures between 0 ° C and 50 ° C, preferably between 15 ° C and 30 ° C, are stirred together to form a hydrophilic intermediate. By this procedure, the highly branched polyacrylic acid (B) is pre-swollen, so that it can develop better later. Subsequently, component (A) [alkyltrialkoxysilane] and, stepwise, component (E) [nonionic surfactant] and also gradually the remaining portion of component (F) [water] are added to this intermediate product with continued stirring, whereby a multiple dispersion is formed.
Preferably, component (A) is first added to the intermediate / pre-swollen gel, whereby by stirring the pre-swollen gel is distributed in the volume of component (A). Subsequently, the remaining portion of component (F) [water] is added, followed by the addition of component (E) [nonionic surfactant].
It is also possible to use the component (A) right at the beginning.
During the manufacturing process, once a hydrophilic gel is built and on the other hand, a water / oil emulsion is formed. These two systems, in their entirety, enter into different interactions, eventually producing a multiple disperse system, the hydrophobizing dispersion gel.
The dispersion gel is ready for use as soon as a uniform system has formed in which optically no two phases can be distinguished with the eye, ie. H. no separation between the hydrophilic gel and the hydrophobic dispersion liquid is more visible.
The dispersion gels obtainable in this way have, as mentioned above, viscosities of from 3,500 to 6,000 mPas, preferably from 4,000 to 5,000 mPas.
The hydrophobizing dispersion gel is used for deep hydrophobization of mineral materials, preferably concrete, lightweight concrete, brick or reinforced concrete constructions, by application on their surfaces. Generally, there is no limitation on the materials to be treated, i. H. All materials from concrete to natural stone can be treated. The mineral materials also include reinforced concrete structures that are stabilized internally by reinforcing bars, such as reinforced concrete structures such as bridge piers, underground garages and buildings. Preferably, the mineral materials have an alkaline pH of ≥ 9. In the case of non-inherently alkaline materials such as bricks or natural stone, the addition of a catalyst may be necessary in the absence of alkalinity (dialkyltin compound, in particular dibutyltin dilaurate). The use of the dispersion gel or the polysiloxane formed therefrom drastically reduces the uptake of aqueous solutions, optionally with dissolved material-damaging chemical compounds. In this way, corrosion processes can be prevented or their progress can be delayed in time.
The hydrophobizing dispersion gel is an easy-to-handle product which can be applied by conventional methods of surface coating, such as brushing, rolling, knife coating or spraying on horizontal or vertical surface formations of concrete structures with a stable surface and is finally completely adsorbed by this. Discolouration after the immediate adsorption of the preparation on, in particular exposed concrete surfaces are not observed or observed only to a degree in which the appearance of the concrete is not permanently impaired compared to products of the prior art.
When applied, about 400 to 600 g / m 2 are used, the application thickness being about 0.5 to 5 mm, preferably about 1 mm, in order to achieve a penetration depth of ≥ 6 mm. The dispersion gel penetrates immediately after application to the concrete surface immediately and without resistance in the surface and reaches in practice concrete concretes (W / Z 0.40-0.60) effective penetration depths in the concrete edge zone of ≥ 6 mm (≥ 3 mg of polysiloxane per Gram of concrete). This applies to concretes that have been stored at 20 ° C and 65% relative humidity to equilibrium. In addition, blockage of the active substance front penetrating into the surface is also not observed since the formulation constituents do not lead to the formation of a barrier layer which would prevent the active ingredient / auxiliary material front from advancing into deeper capillary space regions. A higher water content is innocuous, unlike many other systems. Due to the preparation of the dispersion gel; which has been explained in detail above, there is a hydrophilic gel, but also a water-in-oil emulsion. These two systems as a whole have different interactions. The competing interaction forces of water-dispersion medium (component A) and water-polymer matrix can be used to control the stability and, secondly, the viscosity by means of water control, which also has an effect on the application properties. Additional water can easily be absorbed by the system components, such as the hydrophilic gel, without collapsing the system.
After application of the pH neutral hydrophobizing dispersion gel (pH = 6.5 to 7.5) to a usually alkaline concrete body surface, a pH equilibrium is established at the concrete / dispersion gel interface, but this is due to the larger mass of the concrete body in relation to the amount of the applied dispersion gel in the direction of alkaline medium shifts.
As a result, the dispersion gel is decomposed into its constituents, i. H. the polyacrylic acid is immobilized by the alkaline medium as the polyacrylate in the front capillary area of the concrete surface and bound to the cationic centers of the cement paste, while the protonated equilibrium portions of the amine oxide as nonionic amine oxides are completely released from their bonding state by the higher basicity of the environment. Outside this boundary layer, the pH value, i. H. the state of the dispersion gel, initially obtained. Only in the further course of the adsorption progresses the described process. As a result of the change in pH conditions, there is an increasing reduction in the viscosity of the dispersion gel to complete liquefaction.
The liquified form can migrate into the deeper capillary areas, which also improves the penetration of the active ingredients. This is also a consequence of the change in the chemical equilibrium and the interfacial tension in the capillaries of the pore space. The remaining at this time intact gel layer on the surface prevented by quasi "capping" the outer concrete interface that located in the near-surface capillary space of the concrete edge zone liquid components of the preparation can be discharged by back diffusion to the surface and evaporation to the outside to the environment. As a result, losses of valuable active ingredients are avoided and moreover achieved further advantages, such as the improvement of the utility value properties. With a given proportion of active ingredient in the preparation, a higher efficiency can be achieved. It is possible to further reduce the proportion of active ingredient, d. H. the consumption of resources is spared and the ecological compatibility improved.
Once the active ingredient has reached equilibrium with respect to its maximum penetration depth, the process of deep hydrophobization by conversion of the organosilicon compound into a fixedly anchored oligomer condensate commences in the basic environment of the pore space of the concrete rim zone. Thereafter, the process of deep hydrophobic equipment of the treatment object is generally completed. The required contact time to the treatment object is at least one hour, preferably 7-72 hours. It depends on the application conditions, i. H. the substrate properties (eg moisture content, porosity) or surface textures.
In the first reaction step, the silanes (A) are hydrolyzed in an alkaline medium by moisture, which is either in the dispersion gel itself or in the form of substrate hydroxyl groups / substrate hydrates in the cement, organosilanols to organosilane triol. The chemical reactivity, d. H. the rate of hydrolysis of the respective silanes (A) depends to a particular extent on the structure of the organic alkyl radical, the alkoxy groups or on the substrate, and also on the pH in the capillary space, the temperature and the other components, for example solvents, surfactants.
Finally, the organosilanetriol polycondensed on partial condensates to the oligomer, which in turn with the remaining hydroxyl groups of the oligomer, per monomer unit one, and with the hydroxyl groups of the substrate first under hydrogen bond and then further up to the polycondensation covalent bonds between organic and inorganic material enters, meets the capillary space of the concrete edge zone and hydrophobically equips.
Depending on the reactivity of the silanes and the alkalinity of the substrate, the entire procedure of deep hydrophobing generally takes about a period of about 2 to 4 weeks, wherein a water-repellent effect is achieved much faster (after about 8-12 h). It is achieved a Tiefenhydrophobierung, d. H. an effective penetration depth of at least 6 mm.

The components branched polyacrylic acid (B) (preferably Carbopol), amine oxides (C) and (D), parts of water (F) (maximum half), and optionally alcohol and Break Thru ® are mixed and allowed to stand for some time until a hydrophilic gel (intermediate) has formed.
Then the silane (A) is added. The nonionic surfactant (E) is added in portions so that a first dispersion can form and then further nonionic surfactant (E) is added so that the hydrophilic gel formed can grow and incorporate into the dispersion formed. Simultaneously, the remaining portion of water is added in portions. The mixture is stirred gently so that the disperse system forms faster by this energy input.
When a white opaque creamy mixture has formed, the manufacturing process is complete.

For the practical production of the concrete, the above-mentioned proportions were converted to a fresh concrete volume of 70 liters and the components thus determined were placed in a forced mixer in the order of aggregate, cement and water. This mixture was then mixed intensively for 60 seconds.
This mixture was placed in a formwork, made of formica plates (without formwork oil), and compacted with a vibrating table for about 2 minutes. After production, the thus-filled formwork, covered with a PE film, for 24 hours at 20 ° C and 65% rel. Humidity stored. After this period, the plate was switched off and stored for 7 days in tap water (network of KIT). This was followed by storage for 90 days in outdoor climatic conditions, but protected from rain.
Approximately 400 g / m 2 per hydrophobing agent (composition according to Example 2) were applied to the horizontally mounted concrete slabs on 1 test field of the concrete slab using a brush. In each case 1 trial field per plate was left untreated as reference surface.
After 14 days, during which time the silane reacted to the water-repellent silicone resin lining the capillary inside surfaces, 70 mm diameter cores were drilled from the plates. These cores were milled using a modified machine tool mill in 1 mm increments. In the powder collected per milling step was by FTIR spectroscopy (method see A. Gerdes, D. Oehmichen, B. Preindl and R.
