Résumé : |
Polyurea is a state of the art, high performance, elastomeric membrane which offers several advantages to the owner, contractor and applicator. This technology gives blend of exciting properties such as fast curing even at low temperatures, water insensitivity along with excellent chemical resistance, mechanical properties, high durability and negligible VOC content. The broad window of application conditions and excellent properties makes polyurea a very suitable coating for several applications such as roof repair, containment liners, membranes, car park decks, bridges and offshore etc. The new developments in the raw material and the advancement in application equipment have widened the application domain tremendously. Continuous development of new raw materials for formulation work will move this technology to a higher level of industrial coating work in near future. |
