Water Repellent Nano Coating for Stone

Water Repellent Nano Coating for Stone (WNCS™ code) is an alcohol-based waterproofing stone coating that utilizes nanotechnology for optimal performance. This specialized coating consists of hydrophobic particles or nanometer-sized hydrophobic silanes, effectively covering and permeating the desired surfaces at a molecular and microscopic level. Doing so effectively seals all surface pores and imparts a water-repellent property to the facade. This innovative solution offers various advantages, such as rapid setting, easy application, resilience against adverse environmental conditions, and preservation of the stone’s original color. Consequently, the widespread adoption of the WNCS™ code in building facade moisture insulation has been witnessed.
This nano facade coating provides comprehensive protection against water, chemicals, natural pollutants, and other damaging agents, effectively safeguarding the building’s facade from potential harm. Furthermore, the water and dust repellency of WNCS™ nano waterproofing stone creates a self-cleaning effect, ensuring a constantly clean appearance. Consequently, this type of nano waterproofing coating is highly recommended for sanitary environments.


PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The WNCS™ nano water-repellent coating is a highly effective waterproofing material designed for building facades. It offers impermeability and dust-proofing properties to various natural and artificial stone types. Using nano technology, the coating comprises modified hydrophobic silane particles with a diameter ranging from 1 to 100 nanometers. This unique formulation enables the coating to cover the stone surface at a molecular or nanometer level.
When applied as a stone-faced waterproofing nano-coating, the entire surface of the stone benefits from enhanced hydrophobicity, dust-proofing, and impermeability. As a result, the stone is effectively protected against water penetration, chemicals, and natural pollutants. Damaging effects such as corrosion, scaling, weathering, freezing, fugue growth, and mold growth are significantly minimized. The durability and useful life of the stone coated with this nano waterproofing coating are greatly increased, reducing the need for frequent repairs or maintenance.
This type of facade waterproofing coating is primarily used for natural and artificial stones like marble, granite, and travertine in building facades. The application process for nano stone-faced water-repellent coatings, such as nano-firebrick insulation and nano-brick insulation, is simple and can be accomplished using common tools like sprays, brushes, or rollers. Its ease of application eliminates the requirement for specialized or skilled labor to perform the waterproofing operation.

Purchase Price of Nano Stone

The price of nano facade stone varies based on several factors, including the weight unit (kilogram) and market fluctuations. Additional considerations such as the materials used in the nano stone, country of manufacture, and brand influence price fluctuations. Due to these variables, providing a fixed price for WNCS™ hydrophobic nano-coating is impossible. To obtain accurate pricing information for nano stone-faced waterproofing or other protective coatings and sealing materials, we recommend contacting our experts at Afzir Retrofitting. They will provide professional advice and assist you in obtaining precise pricing details.
