Silicate glue is used in various fields. It is difficult to do without it in construction, the material is useful for waterproofing. In addition, it is used in the production of acid-resistant, heat-resistant and water-resistant concretes.
The use of silicate adhesive as an addition to building materials can improve their strength, weather resistance, durability and fire resistance. Silicate glue (potassium liquid glass) is used to impregnate fabrics and wooden products, which allows them to give greater density and fire resistance.
The tool can be used as protection for injuries or tree pruning. With its help, priming of brick, wooden, concrete, plastered surfaces, as well as waterproofing of pools and tanks is carried out. Silicate glue is useful for gluing paper, wood, glass, cardboard, leather, fabric and porcelain products. In addition, you can perform gluing on any surface of linoleum and facing tiles.
Silicate glue can be used andas an independent product, and in combination with various materials. It can be used as a cleaner and detergent. The adhesive composition is used in the paper, textile, chemical, fat and soap industries. It is an excellent environmentally friendly antiseptic, prevents the formation of fungi, rot and mold.
Before use, mounting adhesive should be mixed, it is recommended to prepare a brush, roller and brush for work. Before applying, the surface must be cleaned of various contaminants, it is better to clean wooden materials with sandpaper. During operation, silicate glue is applied to the surfaces to be joined, which are then pressed against each other.
When using a primer to treat the surface of the screed, cement and liquid glass are mixed in the same ratio. To create waterproofing of concrete wells, their walls are treated with silicate glue, and then covered with a solution prepared from liquid glass, sand and cement (in equal proportions).
To make waterproof plaster, mix sand and cement (2.5 to 1) with a 15 percent solution of silicate glue. The same composition is used for the repair and laying of the outer parts of stoves, chimneys and fireplaces.
For waterproofing basements, ceilings, floors, walls, swimming pools, silicate glue is taken and combined with 10 parts of concrete mortar.
As usual pasting work, the adhesive material is taken at the rate of 200 - 400grams per 1 square meter.
To clean dishes, pans, pots and other items, it is necessary to prepare a solution of liquid glass with water in a ratio of 1 to 25. After that, the dishes should be boiled in this composition.
Silicate glue is also used for repairing aquariums and gluing glass, it is impregnated with lime building materials, concrete, wood and cement products, which increases their strength. With the help of glue, silicate paints are made, grease and oil stains are removed from clothes.
