Idea and principle of water resistant cement
Waterproof cement is a cement with a specific waterproofing agent added. Its main function is to improve the thickness and impermeability of concrete by changing the microstructure of concrete and lowering the number and size of capillary pores. Normally, water-proof concrete will certainly add water resistant products such as sodium silicate and potassium silicate during the production procedure. These materials will develop a water-insoluble crystal in the hydration reaction, filling up the pores in the cement and making it water-proof.

Advantages and negative aspects of water resistant cement
Benefits
Convenient building: Using water resistant concrete is similar to that of normal concrete, and no additional specialist skills are needed.
Inexpensive: Compared to other premium water-proof products, the rate of waterproof cement is more cost effective and suitable for massive water-proof tasks.
Good durability: The waterproof cement layer, after appropriate building, can preserve its waterproofness for a long period of time and is challenging to age.
Widely utilized: Ideal for cellars, roofings, bathrooms, pool and other scenes.
Downsides
Limitations: Waterproof concrete is mostly made use of for moderate to modest water seepage troubles. For serious water stress and long-term immersion settings, the effect might not be as good as specialist waterproof coverings.
High construction requirements: Construction has to be executed strictly according to the guidelines otherwise the anticipated result may not be achieved.
High upkeep requirements: Once the water resistant layer is damaged, repair work is much more difficult.
