Characteristics of sealant "TehnoNIKOL" № 45

Poor sealing of the outer joints is the main cause of dampness, swelling of floors and wallpaper. Solving such a problem is quite simple with the help of a sealing compound. The best qualities have a mixture based on rubber.

Sealant "TehnoNIKOL" №45 can be safely attributed to the market leaders.

A mixture based on butyl rubber with fillers, targeted additives and an organic solvent. Butyl rubber is a polymer with a complex structure of molecules. Because of this, it is highly resistant to various types of effects. He is not afraid of acid, alkali and salt. It does not dissolve in ethanol and acetone. It has low gas permeability.

The mass itself is homogeneous, viscoelastic and mobile. The color of the mixture may be gray or white.The latter allows staining with facade paints. Before painting, it is necessary to test the color and grip in an inconspicuous area.

Butylrubber sealant should fulfill its functions due to its properties:

• elasticity;
• does not require additional preparations for use;
• deformation and strength indicators are at a fairly high level;
• high level of adhesion to various surfaces;
• temperature operation from -20 to +40 degrees Celsius;

• resistance to aggressive environment and precipitation;
• does not require special skills and tools for installation;
• possible subsequent staining.

Specifications:

• the weight of one cubic meter of composition is 800-1100 kg;
• able to withstand pressure up to two atmospheres;
• when you try to break the frozen composition is extended twice;
• dry matter content relative to the total mass of more than 50 percent;
• bond strength with concrete is equal to two atmospheres;

• consumption per 1 square. m from 0.5 to 1 kg of sealant;
• after application withstands temperatures from -50 to +80 degrees Celsius;
• one hour to dry to "tack free."

With all its advantages, TechnoNICOL Sealant No. 45 has a minus. It is intended for outdoor use only.

Buy butyl rubber sealant can be in the hardware store. In production, it is poured into a eurobad of metal of 8 and 16 kg each.

Shelf life is 18 months. Be sure to pay attention to it. A mixture with a suitable and expired shelf life has the worst quality characteristics.

Price varies depending on color and weight. So, for one kilogram of white solution you will need to give around 195 rubles, and for gray already 189. For a sixteen kilogram bucket you will need to pay 3111 and 3036 rubles, respectively.

Keep container with sealant should be in a dry room with good ventilation and protection from sunlight.

As mentioned earlier, the sealant has an extremely high degree of adhesion to various surfaces.

• concrete;
• metals;
• polymeric materials;
• glass;

• building blocks;
• tree.

Therefore, the range of its application is quite wide.

• concrete joints;
• reinforced concrete seams;
• metal constructions;

• window and door openings;
• balcony blocks;
• residential and public buildings.

• concrete;
• reinforced concrete;
• metal.

There are several types of applying sealant "TekhnoNIKOL" No. 45 on the surface:

• the composition is treated with the entire surface;
• sealant is applied to the corners and the central part of the thermoplate on the side that will be attached to the surface;

• strips from 4 cm wide, there should be more than four per square meter;
• drops are also applied with a spatula, 50-80 g each, with a frequency of 10 per square meter.

The method of application depends on the material of the surface, as well as on how to apply sealant to you more conveniently.

• before starting work it is recommended to mix the composition;
• dust and humidity can impair adhesion of the sealant to the surface, so the surface must be cleaned and dried;
• if the work is planned to be carried out at a minus temperature, then the sealant should be kept in a warm room for at least one day;

• apply the composition with a rubber or metal spatula;
• clothes, exposed skin, eyes should be protected from the mixture; gloves must be used;
• adding a solvent to the sealant for easier application will adversely affect its properties;

• Watch for the formation of gaps and voids during operation, they will have a negative impact on the operation;
• Always follow the manufacturer-recommended norms, the description of which you will find on the label.

Unlike analogs, this sealant can be used at low temperatures and high humidity.
