Moisture in walls causes efflorescence and salt crystallization , which can turn in structural damages . Renovation needs a proper sealing of the leakage and a removal of the salt in the walls with special renovation renders . The formulation of such renders must achieve a high volume and a balanced hydrophobicity . Standard products using air-entraining agents to create pores . The disadvantage of air-entraining agents is their dependency on mixing time and speed . Considerable improvements can be achieved with Poraver ® expanded glass in the formulation . Poraver ® gives renders a high volume with stable pores that allow salt to crystallize without damaging the render . It also shortens the mixing time and significantly improves workability . In this way Poraver ® supports a hassle-free product for excellent results .
