Expansion Joint Treatment

Advantages:

• Cures at ambient temperatures to a tough, elastic and flexible rubber like material
• Bonds strongly to most of the building materials with the use of recommended primers
• Durable remains unaffected by UV rays, ozone and weathering conditions
• Resistant to water, salt water, 10% dil. Acids except nitric acids, alkalis, most of the common chemicals, vegetable, lubricating oils and fuels
• Performs well in a temperature ranging from – 20OC to 80OC
• Slip resistant (sag) can be applied in horizontal joints
• Movement capability – Provides satisfactory hermetic sealing of the joint subjected to expansion, contraction, vibration and cyclic movement within the following limits. Movement joints up to ± 25% of the width
• Slip resistant (non-sag) can be applied in vertical & ceiling g joints
• Self leveling, after pouring in horizontal joint levels itself
• Recovers the original width after expansion & contraction without losing the surface bond
• Excellent reparability property
• It can be over coated by waterproofing compounds
• Non-toxic
• Sealant will not cause staining to concrete masonry or stone

Uses:

• Sealing of expansion, contraction & construction joints in building structures such as, basements, subways, retaining walls, floors, external walls and claddings of high-rise buildings, roof terraces and ceilings especially structural expansion joints running through the ceiling.
• Sealing of dynamic structures cracks
• Joints in water retaining structures such as water tank, swimming pool including decks, aqua ducts, dams, canals, reservoirs and water treatment plant.
• Sealing of joints in traffic areas sus as concrete roads, bridges, flyovers & airport runway.
• Nuclear power station reactor domes.
