Storage conditions and shelf life

Antiseptic Nortex should be placed in well-ventilated warehouses, providing the product with protection from sun exposure. The product must be in closed containers, at an ambient temperature from -50°C to +50°C, with a humidity of no more than 70%.

Should be considered! At minus t, the disinfectant undergoes partial crystallization, but after defrosting it acquires its previous properties.

The shelf life of antiseptic impregnation is two years. After this period, the effectiveness of the product decreases, and therefore it should not be used.

Types of antiseptics

At the moment, there are 2 main groups of antiseptics for concrete: against mold and mildew. Usually they begin to resort to their help when infection has already occurred. At the construction stage, it is important to carry out preventive treatment to prevent the rapid spread of pathological microorganisms.

It is best to choose impregnations that penetrate to a depth of 1.5 meters. Such agents can suppress the activity of entire fungal colonies, mold and other pathogenic microorganisms. In modern construction, organic products, such as copper sulfate, sodium fluoride and others, are used least often. They are unsafe and can harm the human body. There are the following types of impregnations for concrete:

• Water soluble. They are water based. Over time, such compounds are washed out of concrete, so it is best to use them indoors. If you decide to use such compounds outdoors, then the walls must be additionally coated with varnish or resin. This antiseptic is most often based on sodium fluoride. It is very dangerous for fungi and any living organisms. To reduce toxicity to humans, this impregnation is mixed with cement or lime. The advantages of water-soluble impregnations include the almost complete absence of odor and low flammability.
• Organic. They are usually used for wood processing. The deeper the impregnation penetrates, the better it will protect against destruction. It is very important to use special protective equipment when working with such chemicals.
• Oily. The main advantages of oily antiseptics include complete non-washing out with water. They are most often used in non-residential rooms or buildings. The impregnations smell unpleasant and leave dark marks on the walls. It is almost impossible to apply paint to the treated surface; the composition itself burns very well.
• Combined. They have a very concentrated composition. They are used for preventive treatment of walls. If treatment is needed, the composition is not diluted.

Review of popular tools

3. Oily – Belinka, Neomid and others have proven themselves to be effective in protecting external structures (roofs, facades, etc.).

There are many compositions of impregnation brands. The most popular are Tiprom, Mipor, Nortex, Belinka, Ceresit, Kapatoks, Teknos Rensa Homepesuliuos, PUFAS Glutoclean. Before making a decision, it is advisable to take into account certain features of choosing a drug.

How to choose a mixture - what to consider:

Specifics of concrete

After complete setting, 4 weeks after mixing cement with water, the concrete slurry turns into a very durable artificial stone. Inside, this material has a porous structure.

These pores easily absorb moisture, which may contain various biomaterials. All this has a very negative impact on the performance characteristics of concrete.

Inside, the concrete consists of small cells

So, the porous structure of artificial cement stone results in 2 rather serious disadvantages of concrete surfaces:

1. high hydrophilicity;
2. conditionally low density.

To improve concrete performance in these properties and make cement surfaces moisture-proof, impregnation materials are used.

Any concrete surface needs impregnation

Homemade remedies against fungus and mold

Sometimes folk remedies are used against fungus, one of them is vinegar and soda. Before treating infected surfaces, scrape off all the fungus with a spatula and wipe the walls with a rag soaked in vinegar or spray the product onto the walls with a spray bottle.

To obtain a soda solution, simply dilute a teaspoon of soda in a glass of water and apply a homemade antiseptic to the infected walls with a rag or spray. It is important to treat even hard-to-reach surfaces to ensure that fungal colonies are destroyed. If, after treating with soda and vinegar, mold appears again, it is necessary to use special means to combat the fungus.

Treatment of affected surfaces

• Take care of safety: prepare special personal protective equipment, isolate children and animals from the access area.
• Prepare the surface by removing all microorganisms and drying.
• Dilute the drug according to the instructions and in accordance with the task (prevention requires less concentration, removal of the parasite requires more).
• Apply impregnation with a brush, roller or spray. Repeat the procedure one or more times.
• In difficult places exposed to humidity, with poor ventilation, carry out treatment regularly, as usual - add a disinfectant to the finishing materials every time repairs are performed.

Selection and use of antiseptics

The choice of an antiseptic for concrete must be approached extremely responsibly. How long the strength of a concrete wall will remain depends on its specific characteristics. Try to take into account the following instructions:

• When purchasing impregnation, choose one that is designed specifically for concrete.
• Consider the type of processing. Some compounds will not be able to penetrate too deeply, so there will be little point in such treatment.
• Not all negative reviews indicate poor quality composition. Many builders simply breed them illiterately.
• Consider the density of the wall. The more concrete, the thicker the impregnation layer is required.
• If you already have a mold problem, it will be difficult to get rid of it with soaking alone. In such situations, it is necessary to use concentrated products.
• Remember that such compounds are extremely toxic. It is for this reason that you must use protective equipment.
• Before applying the antiseptic, the wall should be thoroughly treated. To do this, remove old wallpaper, remove plaster, try to remove microbial growths.
• When scraping off mold, be sure to keep it moist. This will help prevent it from spreading.
• Purchase the necessary tools in advance - this will make your work easier.
• Before applying the composition, dry the walls in advance.
• The first antiseptic treatment should be generous. The composition needs to penetrate into the deep layers of concrete.
• Be sure to let the surface dry. Once the antiseptic has completely dried, apply the next layer.
• If you leave bare concrete, you will need to perform maintenance treatments from time to time.
• Walls in apartments should be treated once every 15 years (provided they are covered with plaster), but if there is cladding, you can get by with treatment once every 30 years.
