Silicone Hydrophobic Powder (SHP)

Repel Water. Protect Strength. Build to Last.

TENESSY - A Reliable Silicone Hydrophobic Powder Supplier

Silicone Hydrophobic Powder is a high-performance waterproofing additive designed to significantly improve the water-repellent capability of cement, gypsum, and various coating systems. By creating a “breathing” hydrophobic barrier on the surface of various coatings, it is possible to prevent water intrusion while maintaining the material’s breathability, ensuring long-term durability and preventing cracks or surface damage.

As a trusted manufacturer in China, Tenessy offers industry-leading silicone hydrophobic technologies with our flagship models engineered for superior dispersibility, excellent compatibility, and long-lasting protection. We also provide customized OEM solutions to meet the specific formulation requirements of different construction materials and application environments.

Key Functions of Silicone Hydrophobic Powder

1. Enhances Long-Term Waterproof Performance

Helps cement-based mortars and coatings resist water penetration from the inside out, making it ideal for applications that require deep waterproofing and moisture protection.

2. Creates Strong Water-Repellent “Beading Effect”

Forms a hydrophobic surface that causes water to roll off like droplets on a lotus leaf. This prevents water from soaking into the material and greatly improves overall waterproof efficiency.

3. Reduces Water Absorption & Improves Stain Resistance

By blocking water uptake, it reduces dampness, prevents stains, and helps the surface stay clean for a longer time, maintaining excellent hydrophobic performance over the long term.

Top Applications of Silicone Hydrophobic Powder

SHP from Tenessy is widely used in various dry-mix mortar systems to enhance waterproofing, reduce water absorption, and improve durability. By forming a long-lasting water-repellent barrier inside the material, it helps building products stay dry, clean, and structurally strong. Whether for waterproof mortars, decorative coatings, self-leveling floors, or tile grouts, this additive provides reliable protection and stability in both indoor and outdoor environments.

Decorative Mortar

Used in coatings and finishing mortars to create a water-repellent surface that resists rain, dirt, and pollutants. It maintains the decorative appearance while improving weather resistance.
gypsum-based-self-leveling

Self-Leveling Mortar

Improves moisture resistance and prevents surface dusting while maintaining flowability. It is suitable for both cement-based and gypsum-based self-leveling flooring systems, ensuring a smoother and more durable finish.

Gypsum-Based Microcement & Dry-Mix Coatings

Ideal for microcement, gypsum-based mortars, dry powder coatings, and other materials requiring hydrophobic performance. It enhances water repellency from within, ensuring long-term durability and stability across various building applications.

How to Use Tenessy Silicone Hydrophobic Powder

  1. Dry Mix with Other Materials

    Add the silicone hydrophobic powder directly into dry-mix mortar formulas such as waterproof mortar, self-leveling flooring, or other dry-mixed building materials. Mix it evenly using appropriate mixing equipment.

  2. Recommended Dosage

    Add 0.16%–0.3% of the total dry weight. This small amount is enough to achieve excellent water repellency and long-lasting durability.

  3. Mixing Procedure
    • Pour the required amount of clean water into a mixing container.
    • Slowly add the dry mix (including silicone hydrophobic powder) into the water while stirring.
    • Avoid overly strong or high-speed mixing, as this may introduce excess air bubbles.
  4. Resting Time

    After mixing, allow the mixture to sit for about 5 minutes (depending on other additives used). This helps the powder fully activate and ensures optimal hydrophobic effect.
