High-quality sealants differ by high strength, adhesion and elasticity. We easily connect them with various kinds of building materials, forming a rigid-elastic mass on the surface, which subsequently perform the function of waterproofing the roof, foundation, roof, terrace or the whole house. Given the modern requirements for the basic properties and reliability of building materials, specialized good sealants are simply irreplaceable at any stage of construction and repair work. The main task of sealants is to ensure the best degree of isolation of seams and joints from moisture.
There are several types of sealants, the most common of which are: acrylic, silicone and polyurethane. The most popular and sought-after sealing material is a polyurethane based sealant. A type that covers the largest sales volumes due to its high performance, ease of use, versatility and durability.
Technical characteristics of Rinoflex polyurethane sealants are the key to their versatility. One-component polyurethane-based Rinoflex sealants are very reliable materials, which, in addition, are safe for use indoors, since they do not emit toxic fumes. One of the main advantages of Rinoflex sealants is the complete absence of shrinkage after drying. In other types of sealants, this figure can reach 15-16%. In addition, polyurethane sealants allow you to work at temperatures up to -25 ° C, which is important in the winter.
Rinoflex polyurethane sealants are used for both internal and external use. Having high elasticity, polyurethane sealant is better than other analogues resistant to abrasion, tearing and other mechanical destructive influences. This quality is especially important when used on highly loaded floor seams and joints, where surfaces are constantly subject to point loads.
Rinoseal 25GM is a solvent-free, one-component Rinoflex polyurethane sealant that cures under the influence of air to form a durable, elastic joint. The sealant has a wide range of operating temperatures and humidity conditions. It is used to seal horizontal, vertical and interpanel seams on surfaces of a wide variety of materials, such as concrete, wood, aluminum, metals, polyester, glass, stone, ceramics, etc.
Rinoseal 25GM is a new generation low-modulus sealant for sealing and sealing joints designed for use with polyurethane and silylated polyurethane technology and modified to provide improved thixotropic properties. Resistant to ultraviolet radiation. After polymerization, Rinoseal 25GM is to be stained. When repairing a joint, it is not necessary to remove the old sealant.

A few advice tips for using. The ideal application temperature for high quality waterproofing at home ranges from +5 ° C to +40 ° C. When applied at a lower temperature (up to 0 ° C), store the packaging at a temperature of about 20 ° C. The surfaces on which the product is applied must be dry, chemically neutral, without damage, clean, free of dust, rust or flaking particles. Open and clean the seams from mechanical and organic pollution. For porous, weak or broken substrates, a suitable primer is used. Do not use chemically aggressive methods to clean the substrate. The optimal depth of the seam is 3-5mm. To set the joint depth with a sealant, insert a polyethylene cord into the joint. The optimal ratio of the width of the seam / depth of the sealant = 2: 1, the minimum depth of 10 mm. The material is applied manually with a mechanical or pneumatic construction gun, or with a spatula.
When you sorted out in detail all the advantages of polyurethane sealants, it is not surprising that this category is more expensive than other analogues. However, this drawback is paid an order of magnitude higher for the long life of the material, which, if properly applied, can reach 30 years, while that of other sealants can be up to 15 years.
