Ease
of application - Easily applied
by brush, roller or airless spray.
Surfaces can be damp or moist when
applying Polydek. |
| |
|
|
Solvent
free - Polydek poses no problems
to workers during application in
enclosed areas because Polydek does
not emit solvent fumes. |
| |
|
|
Ease
of maintenance - When maintenance
is required after 5-10 years, the
membrane surface can simply be cleaned
and re-coated with a refresher or
second top coat. |
| |
|
|
Hairline
cracks - Polydek bridges and seals
non-moving hairline cracks. |
| |
|
|
Vapor
permeable - Coatings of Polydek
allow two-way vapour transmission
to release moisture and reduce efflorescence
due to rising damp. |
| |
|
|
Weather Resistant - Polydek has
good weatherability and excellent
resistance to ultraviolet degradation. |
| |
|
|
Trafficability - Polydek can
withstand regular foot traffic. |

Advantages
over Sheet Membrane Systems - Polydek
can be brush-applied to angle fillet
and skirtings as well as to contours
and irregularly angled surfaces.
This circumvents the problem of
measuring and cutting the sheet
membrane to be torched onto the
said areas. Polydek does not require
honeycombs or hairline cracks in
the concrete to be hacked, patched
or grouted; unlike when using a
sheet membrane system. |
| |
|
|
Advantages
over Solvent-Based Systems - Problems
of bubbling or pinholes are greatly
reduced when using the water-based
Polydek system because the moisture
present in the membrane allows bubbles
to escape. |
