Josep, the relevant classifications in LEED are generally based on function of the product, not chemistry. So what is it being used for?

It is up to the manufacturer to assign the proper regulatory category for the product. Generally, this type of product could fall under Waterproofing Concrete/Masonry Sealer, Floor Coating, or Industrial Maintenance Coatings. The latter category is for high-performance coatings including those subject to frequent abrasion, mechanical wear or requiring chemical resistance.
