WATERPROOFING CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS WITH HIGH MOLECULAR WEIGHT ESTERS

摘要

A waterproofing or repelling agent comprising; naturally occurring high molecular weight esters, selected from the group consisting of wool grease, bees wax, carnauba wax, spermaceti wax and the like; a carboxylic acid; and a hydrocarbon solvent. The waterproofing agent may be used on porous building products such as timber and masonary. The waterproofing agent may also be use to repel water from road bases to assist in stabilization of road bases formed from particulate materials. The waterproofing agent may also include preservatives or termite repelling agents to assist in the preservation of timber.
