Abstract:
A plasticized PVC formulation for foam extrusion including polyvinyl chloride, at least one plasticizer, at least one nucleating agent and a chemical blowing agent, wherein the plasticized PVC formulation is a dry blend containing 0.5 to 5% by weight of one or more nucleating agents and 0.1 to 3% by weight of the chemical blowing agent, wherein the blowing agent is sodium bicarbonate and the nucleating agent is talcum, and a foam extrusion method using said formulation. The extruded plasticized PVC foam is particularly suitable for rock shield pads used for pipeline protection. The foams are lightweight and require less consumption of materials with comparable properties to corresponding solid articles.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a sealing device (1) which comprises a barrier layer (2) with a thermoplastic polymer P1, and an adhesive layer (3) with at least one ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) P2 and azo-dicarbonamide A, and which is suitable for sealing bases in the building sector. The invention further relates to a method for sealing said bases. The method according to the invention allows structures of civil engineering to be sealed rapidly and efficiently and ensures good adhesion of the sealing device on the base.
Abstract:
Method for producing a foam element, wherein an expandable starting material of the foam material is supplied to a portable extruder (10) in the form of granules (11), is activated or fused therein under pressure and the effect of heat and is expanded to a foam element during the manually controlled discharge from the extruder.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to expandable compositions in the form of granular materials that are based on epoxy resins with a content of binders and curing agents for curing the epoxy resin. Corresponding compositions can be readily introduced into hollow bodies, for example, into sticks or roof supports and expanded to a foam by heating the composition and cured. This results in hollow bodies filled with foam that are distinguished by significantly improved mechanical properties compared to comparable hollow bodies without a foam filling. At the same time, the granular materials according to the invention can be very readily processed without a complex and expensive two-component injection-molding process being necessary.
Abstract:
The invention is directed to a membrane used in waterproofing and roofing applications, the membrane comprising a barrier layer S1 comprising a thermoplastic polymer component P1 and a contact layer S2 bonded to at least portion of the barrier layer S1, the contact layer S2 comprising a mixture of a solid filler component F and a thermoplastic polymer component P2. The invention is also directed to a method for producing the membrane, a method for waterproofing a substrate, to a waterproofed construction, to a method for sealing a substrate against water penetration and to a sealed construction for sealing a substrate against water penetration.
