Description of Akterm Concrete and varieties of compositions, rules of application and analogues
Poor insulation in a home leads to increased heating costs, dampness and mold. It is not always possible to carry out repairs on the spot, especially when it comes to an apartment building. In this case, the use of an innovative product from a Russian manufacturer - a thin heat insulator "Akterm Betona", will be useful. The tool allows you to perform high-quality insulation of the house both outside and inside without additional financial and labor costs.
Description and characteristics of the composition
The product is made in the form of a liquid composition that resembles sour cream. After curing, it forms a continuous foam-like layer on the surface. This texture is formed after contact with air. The product is applied to the surface in two layers, after the first has completely dried.
The suspension contains:
- The filler is a microscopic hollow sphere made of silicone, glass and ceramic. Each hollow particle inside is filled with rarefied air and has a different diameter.
- An acrylic or latex binder painted with a colored pigment. The manufacturer may add other components to the composition, depending on certain conditions of use.
Liquid heat insulator "Akterm Beton" is used on various surfaces: concrete, brick base, plaster, limestone.After application, it acts as a reliable thermal barrier.
Benefits :
- a thin layer of coating, does not give additional load on the walls, does not hide the area;
- protects the metal from corrosive processes;
- effectively protects against frost;
- easy to apply;
- does not contain harmful impurities;
- does not have a foreign smell;
- protects against the appearance of fungus, mold;
- suitable as a topcoat;
- anti-condensation paint is suitable for indoor and outdoor use;
- used in hard-to-reach places;
- no professional skills required.
Liquid thermal insulation is applied like ordinary paint, with a brush or roller. When working on concrete, use a spatula. On average, the layer dries for 24 hours.
Product range
The multifunctional product of the presented brand is available in various modifications. Depending on the type, the material acts as a thermal insulator, reduces the risk of condensation and solves other problems.
"Akterm Anticondensate" is a special water-based coating that excludes the appearance of condensation, the development of fungus, mold. Suitable for use in industry, construction and domestic use. Withstands temperature conditions -60 ... + 150 degrees.
"Actor Standard" acts as a universal tool. It can be used on all types of surfaces. The product has thermal and waterproof properties, high quality sound insulation, energy saving. Can be applied on hot surfaces. Working temperature + 7 ... + 45 degrees.
Liquid insulation "Akterm Facade" protects the walls from freezing, reduces the risk of condensation accumulation. The composition of the product includes fungal inhibitors.The material is resistant to UV rays and is characterized by excellent vapor permeability.
Apps
Thermal insulating paints are used in various industrial fields and in everyday life. In addition to its main purpose, the coating protects the surface from corrosion, does not let moisture through and reduces heat loss by up to 90%.
Areas of application of liquid heat insulator "Akterm":
- insulation of exterior and interior walls of residential and industrial buildings;
- processing of external seams in panel buildings;
- insulation of the joints of the walls of easily erected structures;
- protection of loggias, balconies, basements;
- window insulation and insulation;
- thermal insulation of vehicle interiors;
- insulation of floors, walls, ceilings against frost;
- insulation of pipes, heating pipes, ventilation systems;
- processing of the outer part of the water transport.
Application rules
The liquid suspension is applied in a thin layer of 0.5 to 1 millimeter on any surface. Once dry, the material acts as a thermal barrier. The working air temperature should be from + 7 to + 45 degrees with a relative humidity of 65 percent.
When processing a small area, the slurry is applied with a spatula or brush. In industrial installations, liquid thermal insulation is applied with a special installation using the spray method. When working with the equipment, a suitable carbide nozzle is used.
Analogs
In the construction market there are many varieties of thermal paints that differ in composition, characteristics and manufacturer.
Similar means "Actorm Betona" include:
- "Bronya Universal" - suitable for surface treatment of any material. The tool is used for pipe insulation, ventilation, furnaces, working containers. Apply a means to avoid the appearance of condensation. Exceptions are surfaces where temperatures exceed 140 degrees.
- Bronya Nord is a liquid insulation that can be used in sub-zero temperatures. Also suitable for use on all surfaces. Works in temperature conditions -60 ... + 90 degrees.
When choosing a heat insulator, special attention is paid not only to the price policy, but also to the properties of the material. "Akterm Beton" is distinguished among other analogues by ease of application, low labor costs.
Comments
Ivan Aleksanrovich, 55, Khabarovsk: “At the dacha there were problems with the insulation of the house, the walls were constantly moldy due to condensation on the walls. For a long time I chose the material to solve the problem. The store managers advised me to buy Akterm Beton. I liked that the composition is suitable for all types of surfaces. After applying the composition, the problem of condensation disappeared."
Viktor Alekseevich, 47, Murmansk: “I built a country house, the question arose with the insulation of the floor and the walls. I wanted to get not just insulation, but something more. Having studied the assortment, I stopped at the choice of liquid heat insulator "Akterm Beton" and did not regret it. The material does a great job with its functions, retaining heat inside and absorbing outside noise. "
