Waterproofing

Moisture insulation can be defined as coatings that are made with various compounds to protect against water and moisture. It is mandatory to use waterproofing in all places that are exposed to water. Roofs, bathrooms, swimming pools, etc. are some of the places where insulation must be done. Moisture penetration into the building can cause problems such as rusting metals, mold and mildew growth, freezing of structures and…. Be.

If waterproofing is used, other problems such as leaks or burst pipes can not cause much damage to the building. Finding a solution to make buildings resistant to water and moisture has always been one of the problems of human beings. Today, with the advancement of technology, there are wider possibilities for insulating buildings and structures.

Types of waterproofing

In order to be able to choose the most suitable waterproofing to use, it is necessary to be familiar with the types of waterproofing and know the characteristics of each. In general, types of waterproofing can be divided according to the type of ingredients and method of implementation:

Types of waterproofing based on the method of implementation

Waterproofing can be applied using two methods. In the first method, moisture is attached to the desired surface using heat and heat. The other category is called cold waterproofing, which is enough to mix the details together.

Types of waterproofing based on ingredients

Insulation can be used to seal, glue, insulate and even paint many places. Most waterproofing, in addition to water, is also resistant to UV rays and is easy to use. In the following, we will help you to choose the most suitable type of insulation for your use by examining more types of waterproofing:

Nano waterproofing

Nano waterproofing, in addition to moisture, is also resistant to mold and mildew. Since nanotechnology is used in the construction of this type of insulation, it can also be considered as a subset of polymer insulation. The use of nanotechnology in these insulators has made them so-called hydrophobic and also has high strength and durability.

In the construction industry, all insulations that are made using new technology and have different functions are usually called nano-insulators. Nano-insulation can be used to seal roofs, walls, water pipes, etc. Modern or nano waterproofing is installed in thin layers and is much easier than other insulators.

Bitumen-based waterproofing

Bitumen: Bitumen and sack can be considered as the first method to create waterproofing. This method, which has been used for many years, is done using a type of fabric called sack and bitumen. The sacks used in this method of insulation work have different types that are offered in the market at different prices. The bitumen used in this method is prepared from the distillation of crude oil and is a combination of organic hydrocarbons.

Izogam: Izogam can be considered as a more advanced type of gypsum insulation. Isogum is a pre-prepared roll layer that is glued to the ceiling and walls using special heating methods. The constituents of bitumen isogum and synthetic fibers. Izogam waterproofing is produced in different thicknesses and sizes as well as plain or metal coatings. Isogum insulation is very flexible and is very resistant to thermal stress, expansion and contraction. Usually after installing isogum, this insulation can be used for up to 10 years.
