Liquid waterproofing is a type of waterproofing materials that has its own subspecies. They differ depending on the components, scope of application, method of application, degree of protection, etc.
What types of waterproofing are there?
Among the hundreds of types of waterproofing materials, we will highlight several of the most popular:
- Liquid;
- Rolled;
- Membranes;
- Injectable.
Liquid types of waterproofing are suitable for working both on small and not very convenient areas for other types of waterproofing, and on large ones. There are a huge number of their subspecies.
Rolled waterproofing materials are reinforced and non-reinforced. This material is designed to work on large areas. He is not afraid of changes in weather conditions and changes in the geometry of the structure.
Membranes (film materials) are characterized by high strength, thermal resistance and resistance to various bacteria and animals that appear on wet surfaces. They are very easy to install and super wear-resistant.
The task of injection waterproofing materials is to restore the bearing capacity of the foundation or to strengthen the body of the monolith. With the help of these materials, the place between the ground and, for example, a concrete structure is strengthened and waterproofing.
What is liquid waterproofing?Liquid waterproofing is a waterproofing material of a liquid consistency, which is applied in a sufficiently thin layer with a brush, roller or sprayer to the surface, protecting it from destruction, while not reducing the space.
Therefore, it is used in small rooms, for example, a bathroom and the like.
Liquid waterproofing, depending on the purpose, can protect the surface from either positive or negative water pressure, or both. This type is very versatile, as it has a wide scope of application.
There are several subspecies of liquid waterproofing for its composition and functionality.
What types of liquid waterproofing are there?
Among the types of liquid waterproofing are:
- Coating;
- Painting.
Coating liquid waterproofing is classified for the main component, which is included in its warehouse. They are:
- Cement;
- Polymer cement;
- Polymer;
- Bituminous;
- Acrylic;
- Polyurethane.
Each of them has its advantages, but today polymer cement coating liquid waterproofing is considered to be the most popular on the market.
