Styrokote is a modified bitumen-water based, ready to use, single- component waterproofing liquid membrane, providing also thermal insulation. By the evaporation of the water it contains, it adheres firmly to the surface it is applied, forming an elastic waterproof layer.
Description
Styrokote is a modified bitumen-based, single-component waterproofing liquid membrane, providing also thermal insulation. It is water-based and ready-to-use. By the evaporation of the water it contains, it adheres firmly to the surface it is applied, forming an elastic waterproof layer.
Usage Areas
• It is used on all horizontal and vertical surfaces.
• It is used for insulating the walls of foundations, underground
storehouses, and basements from outside.
• It is used for insulating water leakage in closed damp environments such as bathrooms, kitchens, and toilets, etc.
• For the applications requiring durability against higher water pressure, and on cracked surfaces, it must be reinforced with insulation netting.
• It can be used for adhering thermal insulation boards.
Application
• Styrokote is a cold applied, prepared material.
• As a prepared material it does not require thinning.
• After having mixed, it should be applied with a trowel.
• Each coat must beapplied only after the preceding oneis completelydry.
• Depending on weather conditions, it dries in approximately 4-5 hours.
• It should not be applied in rainy weather, or at temperatures below +5°C.
Advantages
• If the application is thick enough, it also provides thermal insulation.
• It can cover cracks up to 7 mm. It can be also used on unplastered brick walls.
• It provides a seamless insulation layer.
• Due to its inflammable and non-toxic characteristics it can be safely used in closed spaces.
• Because it contains water, it enables good adhesion even when the surface is moist.
• It is elastic.
• It is ready to use.
• As a cold applied material, it does not require heating, or thinning.
