The products used in water tank injection application are preferred to ensure sealing in reinforced concrete structures. The right material selection is of great importance for the success of the application. In addition, quality products should be preferred for the longevity of the system. Problems are likely to spread rapidly in structures exposed to water. Therefore, it is necessary to provide solutions with professional materials.
Polyurethane Based Injection Resins
Polyurethane injection resins are applied directly to cracks where water is present. This material is applied in liquid form and expands when in contact with water and fills the gaps. Thanks to this feature, sealing is provided at a high rate. Special equipment is used during application according to the depth of the crack. Sempoly The product options offered by provide effective results in applications. Polyurethane resins are ideal especially for sudden interventions. However, a combination may be required for long-term protection.
Epoxy Based Injection Materials
Epoxy injection products are preferred for structural repair rather than waterproofing. Such materials are applied under high pressure and increase the load-bearing capacity of the concrete. It also prevents the progression of cracks. It is often applied in areas where water does not come into contact. Sempoly's technical consultancy team provides support in choosing the right product. Epoxy systems should be preferred to obtain a permanent solution in structures. However, suitability should be evaluated in each project.
Fast-Setting Water-Resistant Resins
In water inlets where urgent intervention is required, fast-setting water-blocking resins are used. These products harden in seconds and prevent water from advancing. They are the most suitable options for coping with the pressure of active water in tanks. Injection systems supplied by Sempoly It has been specially developed for this type of applications. Resins can be selected in different forms depending on the structure of the surface. However, safety equipment must be present during use.
PVC and Rubber Waterstop Tapes
In water tank injection applications, not only liquid resins but also tape systems are preferred. PVC and rubber based water retaining tapes are generally placed in cold joints. These tapes are placed before concrete casting to prevent water passage. Sempoly's product catalog offers a variety of options in these tape types. Tapes should generally be considered as a support for injection applications. They may not provide sufficient protection on their own.
Injection Pumps and Auxiliary Equipment
Application equipment is as important as the material. Injection pumps, pressure-resistant hoses and fittings directly affect the quality of the application. Poor quality equipment can cause disruption in the application. For this reason Sempoly injection equipment should be processed with professional products such as. In addition, regular maintenance of the equipment should be done and technical service support should be received. It is essential that each product is used with equipment that complies with its own technical specifications.
Pre-Application Surface Preparation Products
Surface preparation is the basis of the injection application. Applications made without cleaning dirt, dust and oil layers may fail. Therefore, special surface cleaning chemicals are preferred. Sempoly engineering solutions It also provides service at the pre-application stage. When the cleaning stage is neglected, the adhesion power of the resins decreases. Thus, leakage may occur again after the application.
Sustainable Material Selection in Water Tank Insulation
Sustainability is as important as choosing the right product. The environmental effects of chemical substances should be considered. Sempoly's environmentally friendly products It provides confidence in this regard. It is recommended that the materials are recyclable or non-toxic. In addition, products with low VOC content should be preferred for user safety. In this way, both the structure is protected and the environment is not harmed.
