TECHNIFUGE

Water repellent surface for porous support (3 polymers)

Description:

• The TECHNIFUGE is liquid, ready to use and intended for the waterproofing of various porous media vertical and horizontal in the construction (concrete, masonry, coated, natural stone or reconstituted,...);
• The TECHNIFUGE is a waterproof lacquer surface, high-performance, based on a mixture of polymers of the type 3: silanes, siloxanes and silicones oligomers.

Performance:

• The TECHNIFUGE has been tested by the scientific and technical center of Construction December 08, 1995;
  Report N ° H.D. 340/133-97;
• Test report on water absorption, dissemination to the water vapour and on accelerated aging.

Applications - Properties of materials:

• Protection waterproof walls and facades of buildings private, public, structures (tunnels, bridges);
• High protection of buildings against pollution;
• Protection dust;
• Protection against bad weather, smog, acid rain and pollutants;
• Reduces frost damage;
• Limits the formation of blooms by migration of water;
• Limit the penetration of water into the Interior;
• The reduction of water absorption allows the material to keep its thermal insulation properties;
• Maintenance moreeasy to support by the character self-cleaning of the repellent;
• …;

Properties:

• System non-film forming;
• Does not change the appearance of the support;
• Breathable material - permeable to water vapour;
• Excellent aging, not yellowing;
• Sustainable treatment at the time;
• Slows down the formation of micro-organism (mosses, lichens,...);
• Can be applied on old water repellent treatment.

Implementation and precautions:
Implementation:

• The media must be healthy, clean, dusted and fat;
• Disinfect the bracket, eliminate mosses, algae and lichens using a fungicide type TECHNICIDE + (permission 1904 B No.);
• Clean up the frayed joints, sealing the cracks;
• Application to saturation, by brush, roller or spray (TECHNISPRAY 10) one to two layers;
• Consumption: between 200 and 1500 ml/m² in total, depending on the porosity of the media;
• Determination of consumption and the efficiency of the treatment by the method with pipe glass;
• Support the TECHNIFUGE-treated can be exposed to rain after +/-2 hours.

Notes and precautions:

• The temperature of the medium can never beless than 5 ° C;
• Must be applied preferably on dry support;
• High fastness to alkali (Ph 14);
• In all cases, the chassis and the glass must be protected, accidental stains should be cleaned immediately, using White Spirit and detergent;
• The TECHNIFUGE can not be applied on non-porous materials;
• Ventilate the premises where we detect odors of solvent;
• Pre-test situ always advised.

Technical characteristics:

• Density: 0.82 (solvent with very high power of penetration)
• Appearance: Colorless liquid;
• Active ingredients: 10% (+/-2%);
• Ageing tests: less than 0.1 ml of absorption after 10 years (according to B.B.R.I.);
• Flash point: > 60 ° C;
• Viscosity: 100 cPs;
• Modification of surface tension: from 30 to 40 mN/m.
• Wetting angle: greater than 60 ° depending on Method used ASTM D5946;
• Water vapour permeability: coefficient µ INF. 10;
• Impermeability to water according to Test method glass Pipe: 100%;
• Maximum efficiency: after 3 days;
• Principle of action: hydrophobic

Packaging and storage:
Keep away from Frost and moisture.
