The modern construction market is ready to offerits customers a huge mass of construction and finishing materials for any construction and repair work. One of such finishes, which are in greatest demand, is penokleks. In order for the surface finished with such panels to serve a long and high quality, and a glue for penopolix is needed. After the panels are glued, they are additionally secured with dowels. To install this type of fasteners, holes are pre-drilled.
Penoplex (or extrusion foamedpolystyrene) is one of the newest thermal insulation materials. It has a fine-meshed homogeneous structure. Manufacturers offer customers two types of insulation plates. Material with a density of 35 kg / m³ is called "Penoplex 35", with a density of 45 kg / m³ - "Penokpleks 45". These two types of one material differ from one another in terms of thermal engineering parameters, flammability and compressive strength. Choosing glue for "Penoplex 35", you need to know that the main area of its application is thermal insulation in civil and industrial construction (insulation of foundations, socles, roofs, the organization of warm floors, etc.). While "Penoplex 45" is mainly used in auto- and railway construction and when laying gas and oil pipelines in regions with low temperatures.
The material is not influenced by aggressivebiological environment, chemically inert. Characterized by low thermal conductivity and water absorption, high strength. The adhesive for "Penoplex 35" due to the presence of its fire retardant (a substance that does not support combustion) is difficult to burn. During combustion, it releases two types of gas - carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide - which distinguishes it from a whole range of organic materials burning with the emission of a whole range of harmful substances. "Penoplex 45" can withstand loads of up to 50 tons per 1 m³.
Before you decide on anyvariant of glue for penoplex, it is necessary to take into account the specifics of the work. It is known that the glue composition for finishing the surface inside the room can be absolutely unsuitable for outdoor work. Here, the influence of temperature differences, and the influence of an aggressive external environment (UV radiation, high humidity during the rainy season, etc.) are also important.
In addition, great importance is given tosurface, which will be removed. It will require special glue for insulation (foam-foam - one of the most in demand at the moment). Modern buildings are built of reinforced concrete structures, bricks, foam concrete, etc. Further surfaces are additionally subjected to finishing, for example, plastered. All of these factors affect the choice of adhesive for use with penoplex plates.
On the strength of the finishing workdirectly affects the adhesion - the adhesion strength of the adhesive with a heatable base. To any adhesive composition offered to customers, an instruction is always attached, in which the main characteristics are described in detail. The accompanying document describes the types of insulating substrates, according to which it is possible to use this glue for penoplex, the permissible humidity parameters. The temperature regime is specified, at which it is possible to carry out finishing works, the temperature range at which the finish will last long and qualitatively.
Adhesive compositions used to work with penokpleksom can be divided into several types:
The most important difference between these groups of funds- component, on the basis of which they are made. Composition based on cement or gypsum is recommended for use on dry substrates. Otherwise, it will quickly harden. An alternative is to knead small amounts of glue and quickly use it. Advantages can not be attributed to this fact, however, adhesive compounds on such bases (cement and gypsum) are today in greatest demand among buyers.
Waterproofing glue means for work with penokpleksom usually produce on the basis of bitumen.
When choosing a glue, one should not lose sight of andcharacteristics of the material to be glued. When carrying out work inside the premises, you must always pay attention to the drying speed of the glue: any glue for penokpleksa has a sufficiently corrosive smell, and in the winter it will be difficult to ventilate the room quite well.
A fairly new material used forinstallation, combines the properties of two fastening compounds: sealing foam and glue. Adhesive material is used to connect porous heat-insulating slabs to the surface and for gluing together constructional porous blocks.
The strength of solidification can be of three types.Construction adhesive-foam is characterized by the highest retention capacity and perfectly replaces the mortar for masonry. Finishing glue-foam is used for internal works, has a high class of fire resistance. However, the adhesion of this kind of material is lower than that of the building material. For work with expanded polystyrene there is a glue-foam. For penopolix, foam plastic, any heat and sound insulating materials that are produced in rolls or plates, this adhesive is most suitable because of its low cost.
With the material you can work on any constructiongrounds. For preliminary setting of the surfaces to be bonded, 10-15 minutes are sufficient, the full curing of the glue-foam will occur within 4-8 hours. The bulk of such glue compositions involves work at a temperature of +5 ° C, but there are also those with which it is possible to work at -10 ° C.
The trade mark "Titan" belongs to the Polishcompany Selena. A significant part of the products are universal glue compounds and sealants. When repairing, the help of professionals may not be required if you truly appreciate the universal glue "Titan". For penokpleksa most often used series Professional Styro 753. The composition is resistant to the effects of the atmosphere, in a state repeatedly withstand the cycles of freezing-defrosting, does not shrink.
In order for the glued surfaces to be denselay down to each other, stitched together and served for a long time, we need to correctly calculate the consumption of glue for penokpleksa. If the skills of working with this material are absent, the glue will be consumed considerably more than that indicated on the packaging manufacturer
There is a list of components thatare prohibited for use in the manufacture of adhesive compositions for work with foam, foam, extruded PPS. In no case should there be combustible-lubricating components - kerosene, gasoline, diesel fuel. It is unacceptable to use benzene and toluene from aromatic compounds. Do not use polyester and coal tar, formaldehyde and formalin, any kind of solvents.
Before going directly togluing penokpleksa, it is necessary to clean the surface of contamination, it is good to dry it and plan the installation in advance. The glue for penokpleksa can be put on plates of a heater in several ways: continuous, strip and dot (or beacon). Usually the preference is given to the band variant. Plates of penoplex plastered with adhesive strips with a step of not more than 30 cm and tightly pressed against the insulating surface. Formed joints are filled with scrap material or mounting foam.
Adhesive for foam, whose consumption is usuallyis indicated on the packaging, it can be safely stored for a year. It will not lose its consumer qualities even longer if it is not stored in places with a minus temperature.
Glue with the highest cost is notnecessarily a guarantee of high quality, if the choice did not take into account the factors of the external environment and the specifics of the work. The use of universal compounds, as a rule, reduces the cost of work, rather than the use of highly specialized glue. Fast-hardening compounds can be consumed very economically (if the work is performed by a professional).
