In the method for coating substrate surfaces which are not water-absorbent, the substrate surfaces are coated with an aqueous composition which comprises an aqueous solution, dispersion and/or emulsion of film-forming substances and water-repellent substances, in which the coating can be removed by treatment with water. The method is also suitable for coating porous, water-absorbent substrates if the substrates are treated with a water-repellent prior to coating with the aqueous composition.

A process for rendering masonry water-repellent which comprises treating masonry which is alkaline, with a highly dispersed water-diluted impregnating composition which comprises (A1) an organoalkoxysilane and/or (A2) an organosiloxane containing alkoxy groups and (B) a water-soluble organic or inorganic acid salt of an organopolysiloxane, which in addition to other organosiloxane units contains siloxane units which carry monovalent SiC-bonded radicals containing basic nitrogen in amounts of at least 0.5% by weight, based on the weight of the organopolysiloxane. The treated masonry is particularly resistant to rising dampness.

Process for water-repellent impregnation of masonry

A method for imparting water repellency to absorbent inorganic building materials by first contacting at least a part of the surface of the building materials to be rendered water repellent, with at least partially liquid water and thereafter applying a solution containing an organosilicon compound and a water-immiscible organic solvent to the moist surface of the inorganic building materials.

C. at 1,020 hPa (abs.), and contain an average of not more than 1.8 SiC-bonded organic radicals per silicon atom, and have at least one hydrogen atom bonded directly to silicon per molecule, or at least one hydroxy group bonded to silicon per molecule, or at least one hydrocarbon radical bonded to silicon via oxygen per molecule which may be substituted by an alkoxy group, or a mixture of at least two such condensable substituents in which the organic silicon compound(s) are used in an amount of at least 30 percent by weight, based on the total weight of the powder (calculated as anhydrous powder). These powders are obtained by spray-drying aqueous mixtures of the water-soluble polymers and the organic silicon compound and may be used, for example, as hydraulic binders, as clay and coloring materials, for rendering bulk materials hydrophobic when diluted with water, and as binders for finely-divided inorganic or organic materials.
