Application of polyurethane for building uses in Naples

Nowadays, waterproof coverings must have technical peculiarities no longer negotiable: they must maintain their efficiency over time, even in the presence of increasingly severe mechanical stress (pedestrian transit, event action and high loads), physical (excursions to thermal shock, pressure and condensation of vapors), chemical (acids, solvents and hydrocarbons) and biological (actions of plant roots and microorganisms). The combined action of these factors produces an acceleration of the aging process of the waterproof covering and attached thermal insulation, up to cause its collapse.

In order to avoid any risk and danger for buildings and manufactures of various nature, it is necessary to entrust the works to highly qualified companies in the field of waterproofing and thermo-acoustic insulation, such as Tecnopur.

Thanks to years of intense and constant research, the company has been able to give birth to Puretan, a particular type of polyurethane for building uses, able to respond to all the extreme operating conditions required.

insufflation of the cavity

Two-component polyurethane system for on-site insulation of wall cavities. The injection of the product is carried out with appropriate equipment directly into the cavity through holes made with a diameter of 30 mm. Particularly indicated for walls of tompagno, brick, concrete, iron or similar artifacts of any shape or shape with a minimum thickness of 5 cm, Puretan 20 has the following advantages:

it achieves excellent thermal insulation of external walls with considerable benefit for living comfort and consequent energy saving;
it considerably reduces noise transmission;
it eliminates the formation of moving air foils inside the cavity, which are harmful for the effectiveness of the thermal insulation with consequent formation of condensation and mold;
allows a complete transpiration of the wall allowing the migration of vapors to the outside;
gives greater solidity to the walls, as a complete bonding is obtained between them, and to the supporting structure;
eliminates any possibility of nesting of small insects or animals;
completely seals the cavities;
is physiologically inert, insoluble, not metabolizable, does not emit toxic fumes or vapors.

Puretan 30

Esempi Applicativi

Asbestos remediation

Puretan 50 is a polyurethane for building uses that waterproofs and insulates at the same time. In addition, it is a continuous coating that can be applied in the desired thickness and is obtained by spraying in place with high-tech machines. Puretan 50 is mainly applied for polyurethane foam overlays, asbestos encapsulation, asbestos cement products and Eternit remediation. In fact, some studies have shown that asbestos cement surfaces, exposed to atmospheric agents in both urban and rural environments, are subject to corrosion phenomena that lead to the release of asbestos fibers into the air, resulting in environmental pollution and health risks for people. For the solution of asbestos encapsulation, less complicated and expensive, Tecnopur intervenes with its own specialized personnel and with its own means to recover the asbestos cement roofing, by applying on site a layer of spray polyurethane foam with which the asbestos encapsulation is obtained. Puretan 50 represents the most suitable solution for many applications, also by virtue of the following advantages

consolidation with improvement of the walkability and mechanical resistance of the slabs;

possibility to intervene quickly and without any interaction with working activities;

encapsulation of asbestos cement eliminating all the problems that this material creates in relation to health and the environment, as the asbestos fibers remain completely encapsulated in the layer of polyurethane foam applied directly on the roof;

no production of toxic and harmful waste, nor need to wash the sheets;

it is a thermo-impermeable product;

it is the only homogeneous product whose molecular structure makes it possible to have simultaneous waterproofing and continuous thermo-acoustic insulation;

excellent resistance to compression and traction;

rapidity of application;

resistance over time;

elimination of thermal bridges as it is applied without interruption of continuity;

remarkable vapour permeability;

elimination of the barrier to vapors;

adaptability to any shape of the laying surface;

no difficulty in application in correspondence of downpipes, skylights, towers, connections with vertical walls;

excellent adhesion such as to form a single body with almost all materials: iron, cement, brick, fiber cement, wood, bitumen, glass and fiberglass;

resistance to acids, solvents and hydrocarbons;

resistance to marine and industrial atmosphere;

unassailability by fungi and microorganisms;

possibility of easy recovery and repair in case of accidental damage.
