Certain vegetable and animal fats have been used as dampproofers and again emulsions or pastes are preferred and typical formulations are given in Table 4.3 [10]. The fat can be white grease, tallow or soya bean oil and although they all produce hydrophobic concrete, different effects on compressive strength are obtained.
