Spraying polyurea consists of two
parts: base and stiffener. It was first used as a table edge protection. Its
use was expanded because it dried up quickly and was very durable. Soon it was
used to seal manholes, concrete tunnels, and steel truck bodies.
Polyurea is a versatile
product.
It is waterproof, UV-resistant,
sturdy, fire-retardant and also a very good electrical insulator. This product
is ideal for floors, pools, decks, etc. Polyurea is a seamless film that can be
handled within 60 seconds of application.
It is used to make concrete surfaces
and foundations waterproof. The oil industry also uses it to prevent oil
reservoir seepage. The polyurea in the base should be sprayed with a paint gun
as it has a drying time of 30 seconds to 2 minutes, so it cannot be rolled out.
For use with the drum, the original recipe has been modified to have a longer
pan life and drying time, at this time called polyurea aspartic or
polyaspartic.
Polyurea is a remarkable technology
that has a wide range of uses. As with any coating system, proper surface
preparation, correct application equipment, and use of compatible primers are
required.
Pipe and pipeline coating
Polyurea coatings and coatings are
increasingly used to protect steel pipes from corrosion. The company has proven
to be more resilient than painting and maintenance services, and costs have
also been reduced. Polyurea is an excellent protective coating system for
polyurethane foam insulated pipes. Polyurea is also used to cover the internal
parts of water and sewage pipelines for infrastructure rehabilitation works.
Roof coverings, railways and tunnels
Polyurea's ability to withstand
coatings and fight corrosion is a major reason why these systems have been
designated for coatings of bridges and structures by the country's Department
of Transportation. The most common applications of polyurea coatings on bridges
are steel and concrete.
Filling / Caulking a joint
Polyurea is successfully used as a
multi-purpose filler, sealant and sealant. It can provide a flexible, durable,
weather and traffic resistant joint for all types of masonry joints, such as
expansion and control joints in masonry floors, perimeter joints, panels and
doors, water tanks, etc. Bridging properties with high elongation and tensile
strength. Fast curing time and moisture insensitivity allows for faster
installation with a wider application window. A good preparation of the surface
and the condition of the substrate is always necessary.
tank liners
Polyurea coatings protect steel
tanks from corrosion, chemicals, and other natural and job site elements. With
proper surface preparation, substrate condition, formulation selection,
primers, and installation procedures, polyurea extends quickly and stays long.
Polyurea is ideal for extending the life of older tanks and may also provide
limited structural properties. These systems can be applied during initial
construction or in a retrofit environment. With fast curing times, it's great
for renovations, as downtime is greatly reduced compared to some competing
materials.
Polyurea liners are resistant to
many chemicals and industrial fluids. With the benefits of rapid application
and the ability to adhere to properly prepared substrates, polyurea is ideal
for new primary coating and storage tank rehabilitation projects.
Maritime field
Above and below the waterline,
polyurea can be very effective in protecting steel, aluminum and fiberglass in
a variety of water sports and commercial marine applications. From noise
reduction for fishing boats, fish trapping, hull protection, and bridges,
polyurea is used in a multitude of marine applications to abrasion, chemical,
and erosion-proofing.
roof covering
Polyurea coatings create an
excellent protective layer for polyurethane foam surfaces. Polyurea can be
formulated to meet specific performance requirements due to the wide range of
physical properties that can be formulated. Some systems have a classification
of colors and reflections. These reflective coatings can help reduce the amount
of energy used in buildings for heating and cooling. Fast curing time and
moisture insensitivity allows for faster installation with a wider application
window. A good preparation of the surface and the condition of the substrate is
always necessary.
sewage treatment liners
Primary and secondary containment
liners for fast-curing, abrasion and chemical resistant concrete. What can you
say more about polyurea applications for the wastewater treatment industry?
Drain sleeves and liners
Polyurea manhole coating is a
rapidly growing market due to polyurea's ability to solve many of today's
problems with underground waterproofing and rapid installation. Many municipal
and private water systems are in dire need of liners and structural repairs.
With proper surface preparation and substrate conditions, polyurea primers can
be quickly applied to get bore up and running faster than most competing
systems. Polyurea's ability to form a durable monolithic coating protects the
cavity from sediment and groundwater intrusion into municipal sewage systems.
truck bed covers
Truck bed liners form a durable,
waterproof and durable liner for the exterior of trucks, dump trucks and steel
containers. These durable, easy-to-clean, corrosion-resistant coatings protect
utility trucks from their harsh environments. They also protect against rust
and corrosion for damaged trucks and containers. Polyurea coating can also be
applied in various thicknesses to meet any specific application request. Truck
bed covers are available in multiple colors and can be rolled over the top edge
of the chaise
Henna to provide extra protection
from impact and abrasion.
theme park and decorative
design
Amusement parks often use polyurea
as a protective coating on foam and other structures to create decorative
building facades, themed shapes, man-made rocks, ponds, and environments.
Floors and parking
Polyurea flooring systems are most
popular for their quick to install capabilities. Other benefits are also
available with polyurea flooring systems. Polyurea is extremely durable and
ideal for use in high traffic areas. They are used in clean/dirty rooms as a
coating for waterproofing and protection against daily pressure cleaning
operations. Polyurea can be formulated to be flexible and resilient allowing
the flooring system to protect objects that may fall on it.
aquarium liner
Aquariums have also found benefits
with polyurea. The ability to form walls with custom shapes and thematic motifs
makes this system desirable. The spray-applied waterproof liner, available in a
variety of colors with the ability to quickly install back into service, is why
facility owners are turning to polyurea.
Landscaping and water
containment
Landscape designers and contractors
have found similar benefits with polyurea. Polyurea is often used to contain
water for ponds and to decorate swimming pools to form a primary containment
liner. The use of geotextiles is common when polyurea is applied to dirt. A
good surface finish is essential when applying to concrete and most other
substrates.
Architectural Design
Polyurea has many of the same uses
in architectural design as it does in park applications. Polyurea is used as a
protective coating on foam, and other structures to create decorative building
boundaries, themed characters, man-made rocks, ponds, and environments. There
are many uses for the design of sets and theatrical stages.
Auto parts molded fascia
Polyurea can be sprayed, opened, or
injected into molds. Many of the fascia parts for automobiles are forged from
polyurea systems. Now, many spray molding applications are becoming popular to
replace parts usually made of fiberglass. Water chutes, auto parts panels,
fascia and spoilers, architectural decorative moldings, and more.
Water parks and
playgrounds
Die-cast slats, wet/dry bumper seat
liners, tank liners, water retention, aquariums and concrete benches are just a
few of the many applications used in the automotive industry. Polyurea is
rapidly increasing use in applications to replace coatings and fiberglass due
to its rapid processing and ability to reduce maintenance cycles.
Car Lining and Track
Fitting
Polyurea is commonly used in the
coating of fluid containment vehicles with its sealing and chemical resistance
properties. Hopper cars have benefited from the strength and wear resistance of
polyurea. These cars often carry coal, sand and other abrasive materials.
Polyurea can be applied quickly and will stand up to many other conventional
systems if applied correctly.
Very fast fixing material
Polyurea is a very fast fixing
material, making it ideal for use in drawing lines and pavement markings. It
can be brought back into service for traffic and pedestrian use within a few
minutes (depending on the formula) after application.
Polyurea is more durable
than paint
Polyurea generally lasts longer
between maintenance cycles. Polyurea is the obvious choice when it comes to
profitability and profitability.
spray molding
The use of polyurea in molding
processes is gaining momentum with the advent of low-efficiency spray guns.
Polyurea has very fast reaction times and is mixed at the counter and
distributed through multicomponent equipment. This material dries to the touch
within seconds of application, greatly reducing mold removal time. The physical
properties of these materials can be modified by the system formulation tool to
meet the requirements of the application.
Other applications:
• Racing Car Body Parts
• Mold making
• artificial rocks
Fuel storage and
containment
Polyurea is resistant to many fuels
and chemicals. It is commonly used for fuel drilling and secondary pipeline
containment. Polyurea is not resistant to all chemicals and compatibility
testing and surface preparation are still required.
