Spray water insulation (polyurea)
Sprayed polyurea water insulation is the two-compound, solvent-free high-quality coating applied on the following surfaces:
- metal (steel, aluminium, trapezoidal steel sheet)
- concrete (or other cement and structural)
- wood
- polyurethane insulating foams
Polyurea coating is the fast-hardenable seamless coating, used at the locations where the construction protection against water and high mechanical strength of the water insulation is required.
Thermal – Tech specializes in making water insulating coating using polyurea elastomer on:
- concrete containers, basins, ponds, tanks, dams, channels, tunnels, pipes, wells
- manufacturing and storage facilities, shopping centers, multi-storey parking yards
- protective surfaces of concrete bridges that prevents against salt
- floors and walls at high-humidity locations and exposure to the caustic liquids
- anti-corrosion coatings for metal: internal and external coatings for steel containers, silos and pipes, bridges, piles, poles, decks and marine industry
- power engineering
- coatings for trucks and other automotive applications, foam elements, protection systems
- process water tanks, confectionery shortening tanks, potable water tanks, liquid paraffin tanks, waste treatment tanks
- platform carriages, dump wagons, vehicles used for the transportation of corn, coal, fertilizers and other mass loads
- industrial flooring
- transport
- slaughterhouse, piggeries, inventory facilities
- hotels, and theme parks
The most important features of polyurea water insulations:
- 100% of solid components it does not contains any dissolvents and volatile substances
- short response time (6-10 s)
- flexibility and elasticity
- it protects against cracks
- high tensile strength
- wide range of working temperatures without mechanical parameters change
- completely water-resistant
Features of the polyurea elastomer that distinguish it among other protective coatings are:
- perfect mechanical and strength parameters (e.g. perfect ability of recoverable deformations thanks to which the membrane can be installed on the damaged and scratched surfaces)
- high resistance to mechanical damages (tears, scratches, wear)
- possibility to apply it on surface of any shape
- good adherence to various kinds of surface (including steel and concrete)
- perfect resistance to water and moisture (including waste water and seawater)
- resistance to biological contamination (microorganisms) and chemical contamination (sulphurous acid, hydrochloric acid, phosphorous acid, petrol and fats)
- protection against leaking of the insulation layer
- very good resistance to aggressive weather conditions, including UV radiation
- stability within the wide temperatures range
- possibility to apply in contact with potable water
- insulated surfaces cleanness maintenance without any problems
- short time of task realization
