XYPEX Chemical Corporation
manufactures a line of products for concrete waterproofing via Crystallization. Existing concrete basements, tunnels, or vaults can be waterproofed by application of the right system. Other materials can be added to new concrete pours to provide a waterproof concrete structure. The web site is - www.xypex.com
Adeka Ultra Seal Water Stops
are designed to form a positive and permanent seal between structural elements including construction or cold joints. Adeka waterstops will replace hard to install PVC waterstops in many instances. Penetrations of below grade concrete by pipes, conduits, or similar materials will be made water tight. The Adeka Waterstops work on metal as well as FRP materials. Adeka also provides products to permanently seal the interlocks of sheet piles for environmental cut off walls, retaining walls and similar types of work. The web site is - www.adeka.com.
Professional Products of Kansas
developed their RTV silicone rubber water repellent products in 1987. The products - Professional® Water Sealants - have been successfully applied to buildings, bridges, highway sound walls, decks, fences, and many other types of above grade surfaces in cities and towns in North America and abroad to protect against water intrusion and/or graffiti.
The product line offers a number of advantages over traditional silane or siloxane sealers. PROFESSIONAL® Water Sealant is an inorganic sealant
that bonds naturally to a variety of surfaces. Once applied, it creates a long lasting, invisible barrier preventing damage caused by moisture. PROFESSIONAL® Water Sealant
also acts as an anti-graffitiant preventing penetration of paint allowing for easy removal of graffiti, using Professional Phase II Cleaner. Professional Products of Kansas website is www.watersealant.com.
DUROMAR Repair and Maintenance Coatings
have a long and successful history of performance in a variety of tough environments. DUROMAR's web site address is - www.duromar.com
The DUROMAR
materials are "solvent-free" materials with a variety of advantages over many conventional systems. Some of these advantages include:
1) No primers required
2) No solvents, therefore no flammability or explosion problems 3) No Heavy Metals, therefore no environmental or health problems
4) Can tolerate pH ranges from 0.5 to 14 5) Can withstand temperatures up to 500°F with excursions to higher levels
6) Can be spray or hand applied - thin (20-60 mil) or thick (80-130 mil) systems 7) Cost competitive with all existing materials
Many of our customers have found
the elimination of flammability and explosion to be especially important in these days of shortened project cycles. The inherent safety of these solvent-free systems
allows other trades to continue their work, including hot work, while high performance coatings are applied. Shorter turnarounds means more productivity and more
profits!
DENSO
provides a variety of materials to protect pipelines and other underground structures from corrosion. Their petrolatum tapes, primers, and epoxy systems are some of the easiest to work with that can be found. The web site is - www.densona.com/Index.htm
Mentor Dynamics
manufactures hopper and chute liners to reduce the wear on these items from abrasion and to improve the "release " of the commodity through this type of equipment. Mentor is able to do this by utilizing a combination of UltraHighMolecularWeightPolyethylene (UHMWPE) material infused with silicone, a proprietary urethane sheeting material, and/or ceramics. This combination of materials allows for preparation of the best in impact resistance, abrasion resistance, and material release. Their web site is: www.MentorDynamics.com
Gill Industries
manufactures a line of concrete additives and concrete maintenance products. A unique product in this line is Gill 33R Superbond. It provides a quick set to concrete, allowing traffic on the "fresh pour" within as little as 4 hours! Coatings can be successfully applied within 12 - 24 hours rather than waiting the traditional 28 days. This can be very helpful in "fast track" projects where getting concrete coated quickly can help move along the entire construction schedule. The web site is - www.gill33.com/
Chlor*Rid
manufactures cleaning materials to insure that substrates are free of chlorides, nitrates, and sulfates prior to lining or painting. Used along with high pressure cleaning equipment, Chlor*Rid is an inexpensive insurance policy that will help get maximum life out of your painting or lining applications. They also provide inexpensive, user friendly test kits for analysis of chlorides, nitrates, and sulfates on substrates in the field. Their web site is: www.chlor-rid.com
Kefa Microporous Coating
represents a new and innovative way to control condensation, mold, mildew, and all other negative consequences of excessive moisture and condensation. Kefa offers all these benefits in a very low VOC (.167 lbs/gal) water based coating that may be applied to most properly prepared substrates. Through the use of Kefa, health risks associated with molds may be greatly reduced or eliminated, areas of high moisture and humidity will be and feel dryer, water infiltration and corrosion can be greatly reduced due to the reduction or elimination of condensation on ferrous substrates. The web site is - www.preact.com
Curran International
provides two very unique services to any industry that utilizes shell and tube heat exchangers. Curran can provide superior cleaning of these exchangers prior to IRIS or similar inspection. Curran can also provide on site surface prep and coating application of coatings to the tube side surface of exchangers (condensers). The coating reduces corrosi on and fouling thus providing a more efficient heat exchange. The web site address is - www.CurranIntl.com
Eccotech
manufactures the silicone based anti-fouling Wearlon systems. Dairyland Power has used Wearlon products successfully for several years to resist Zebra Mussel resistance. In their Zebra Mussel resistance testing station, Wearlon is one of the top two performing products! (The other -Biox- has been withdrawn from the US market by the Japanese manufacturer.) More information is available from their web site - www.wearlon.com The Wearlon materials are used when release is important, in such areas as latex manufacturing, mold release, and Zebra mussel resistance. The web site is - www.capital.net/com/eccotech/
Integument Technologies
provides self-adhesive fluoropolymer sheet lining material for corrosion protection in particularly corrosive environments. Primary containment, secondary containment, or aggressive environmental situations can be handled very well with these Teflon®, Kynar®, or Halar® materials. The web site is - www.integument.com
