A hydraulic composition comprising an AE agent, water-soluble cellulose ether, defoamer, cement, water, and aggregate is provided. The AE agent contains a fatty acid-based surfactant consisting of a fatty acid, alkali metal salt, lower alkylamine salt or lower alkanolamine salt thereof and a nonionic surfactant consisting of a polyoxyethylene phenyl ether. The hydraulic composition has frost damage resistance and experiences little bleeding.

A method of finishing an interior wall includes the steps of preparing a substrate of building panels comprising gypsum, cement or combinations thereof, said substrate having a surface, followed by applying a coating to the substrate, said coating comprising 1-30% by weight of a latex emulsion binder, 30-80% by weight calcium sulfate hemihydrate, up to about 8% by weight of a set inhibiting agent and 20-60% by weight water.

Disclosed is a composite waterproof structure comprising: an inorganic elastic undercoat layer including an inorganic material on a construction surface; a complementary reinforced fiber or chopped fiber layer in the form of a mesh in the middle of an inorganic undercoat body; a first intermediate coat layer disposed on the inorganic elastic undercoat layer; a mesh-type fiber-reinforcing sheet layer attached onto the first intermediate coat layer; first and second impregnated layers provided on the mesh-type fiber-reinforcing sheet layer; a second intermediate coat layer disposed on the first and second impregnated layers; a third intermediate coat layer provided on the second intermediate coat layer; and a first top coat layer.

Dispersion-based ready-to-use grout formulations, methods of making such dispersion-based ready-to-use grout formulations, and the resultant grout products that perform as reactive resin grout products. The grout formulations of the invention at least include a water-based acrylic polymer dispersion binder and optionally a water-based acrylate copolymer dispersion binder, in combination with one or more of an alkaline cross-linker, one or more silane adhesion promoters and/or a micro-fiber filler, along with various other constituents, to provide one-part ready-to-use grout formulations that require no mixing prior to use thereof. The resultant grout products of the invention meet performance standards of epoxy grout products, without requiring mixing of composition parts and without any adverse side effects.
