If it is good to waterproof the building in its especially vulnerable nodes, then you can provide high performance for the construction of any purpose. A high-quality insulator is able to increase the level of hydrophobicity of the surface. With the help of a good material, you can cope with mold and fungus, improving the indoor climate. Among other things, with the help of such measures, it is possible to increase the frost resistance of the material, eliminating the destruction of the structure of the supporting structures. However, before starting work, it is important to choose the right material, which can be pasting, coating or membrane. One of the most famous is the TechnoNIKOL rolled waterproofing, which is fixed on the protected surface with an adhesive layer or by fusing. Using this technology, you can create an internal and external barrier with varying degrees of vapor permeability.
"Technonikol" - rolled waterproofing, reviews of which are only the most positive, is created on the basis of thermoplastic polymers and is applied to the surface with mandatory heating. Such a material will not be afraid of reduced hydrophobicity in the area of \u200b\u200bthe joints. Polymer coatings have no joints, and the edges of the rolls can be strengthened using diffusion welding, turning the scattered sheets into one solid sheet. The TechnoNIKOL company in the production of roll materials uses not only polymeric materials, but also synthetic rubber. Sheets are glued together with a compound or a common solvent. Resistance to mechanical damage is much higher. But the installation speed of rubberized materials is reduced if compared with polymer coatings. Below will be presented the most common roll materials from the manufacturer TechnoNIKOL, as well as their characteristics, which will make it possible to understand which variety to give preference to.

Its thickness is 4 mm, the error inboth sides can be 0.1mm. The mass of one square meter is 4.95 kg with an error of 0.25 kg. It is also worth asking about the breaking force in the transverse and longitudinal directions. These characteristics are 400 and 600 N, respectively.
On a bar with a radius of 25 mm, the temperature of flexibility does not exceed -20 ° C, while the heat resistance is 100 ° C. The length and width of the roll are 10 and 1 m, respectively. As for vapor permeability, in this case it is 0 kg/(m.s. Pa).
Description of Technoelast GREEN
As you know, modern roofs play a protective role and are part of the design of the building: they carry an aesthetic load. Increasingly widespread today are interesting roofing systems. A variety of such systems on which plants are planted are called green, they turn into real gardens, but beauty requires sacrifice. In addition to the usual destructive factors that affect waterproofing materials during the installation of such roofs, microorganisms appear, root systems grow and begin to destroy the layers. To prevent such consequences, Technoelast GREEN is used, which is resistant to mechanical damage and chemicals.

"TechnoNIKOL" - waterproofing roll roofing, which is used for the installation of a protective layer of various building structures and structures. The material thickness canvary from 4 to 4.2 mm, and the mass of one square meter is 5 kg. The breaking force in the transverse and longitudinal directions is 400 and 600 N, respectively. The bending temperature does not exceed -25 °C, and the heat resistance remains the same as in the above case.
Tekhnoelast EPP Reviews
If you need TechnoNIKOL rolled waterproofing, then consumers are advised to pay attention to Technoelast EPP, which is a modified material of increased reliability that performs many tasks. It is intended for the installation of roofing carpet for buildings for various purposes, waterproofing of foundations and other structures that have very high reliability requirements.
According to users, the material can be used in all climatic zones. The manufacturer claims that the element of Technoelast is the cold of the polar night. It should be used where other materials cannot provide an adequate level of protection against water. It embodies serious construction projects and guarantees high reliability. Its manufacture is carried out by applying a bitumen-polymer binder to the base. The latter contains bitumen, fillers and thermoplastic. Fine-grained dressing and a polymer film are used as a protective layer.
Main characteristics of Technoelast EPP
It is necessary to lay Technoelast with propaneburners. The top and bottom coatings consist of a film. But the mass of material per 1 m2 is 4.6 kg. The tensile strength in transverse and longitudinal directions is 400 and 600 N, respectively. If we are talking about fiberglass, then these figures increase to 900 and 800, but when you have materials on fiberglass in front of you, then their breaking strength in tension is 294 N. The thickness of the canvas is 4 mm, and its water absorption during the day does not exceed one%. The mass of the binder from the side of the deposited layer is 2 kg/m2. You may also be interested in the brittleness temperature of the binder, which is -35 ° C. This roll waterproofing "Technonikol" shows the quality of absolute water tightness at a pressure of 0.2 MPa during the day.
Characteristics of "Technoelast barrier"
Rolled waterproofing of the foundation "TechnoNIKOL" is offered for sale in the form of varieties "Barrier" and "Barrier Light". In the first case, the material is a polymer film, on one side of which a self-adhesive composition is applied. The sticky side is laid on the surface of the foundation and, thanks to its elasticity and flexibility, provides high protection of the building against water penetration. The thickness of the material is 1.5 mm, and the mass of m2 is 1.5 kg. The conditional strength is kept within 1 MPa, while the temperature flexibility is -25 °C or less. The heat resistance of this waterproofing is 85 °C, and the relative elongation at break is200%.
What else you need to know about Technoelast barrier
This TechnoNIKOL roll pasting waterproofing has the qualities of adhesion strength to concrete and metal, which are 2 MPa (kgf / sq. cm). The top layer is a thick polymer film, while the bottom layer is a release film. Products are supplied in rolls, the length and width of which are equivalent to 20 and 1 m, respectively.
Features of "Barrier Light"
This self-adhesive material is intended for indoor use, and if it is necessary to lay ceramic tiles, there is no need to prepare a waterproofing base. This variety is a modification of the material described above, which has elasticity and flexibility. It differs from its analogue in the top coating, in the role of which a non-woven fabric is used. On the latter, you can lay ceramic tiles for waterproofing.
The material can be used in all climatic zones. If you will be waterproofing the foundation with TechnoNIKOL roll materials, in particular Barrier Light, then for its installation you should wait for a temperature that is above +5 ° С. If the conditions do not meet these requirements, then the base warms up, as does the lower surface of the material. From the underside of the waterproofing, the siliconized film should be removed by gluing the material to the surface.
