Special Structures
You can use any type of facade coatings, which are designed for use on mineral substrates, what is the Thermo-Lite. As a rule, acrylic, silicate paints, but the optimal – PAINT FOR SILICONE BASIS. Silicone paint are composed of silicone emulsion, which increases water vapor permeability of coating, as compared to conventional water-dispersion paints from two to eight times, with increasing water and stain-resistant properties. Paint dries with a smaller surface tension than acrylic exterior paint, and therefore does not form microcracks. Unlike acrylic copolymers, silicone resins are not thermoplastic, ie, not soften pripovyshenii temperature.
In combination with high water-repellent properties, this means that the surface is painted with silicone paint, is practically not contaminated by that particular important in modern cities. For application to the surface, cover with plaster insulation Thermo-Lite, the application of silicone paints foreign production: operating characteristics coatings depend on many factors, but most important is their chemical composition. Paint contains many components, which include pigments, fillers and special additives, but overriding elements are, of course, film-forming material (binder). After applying to the surface of film former (as a result of chemical and physical processes) should form continuous film that has sufficient adhesion to the substrate and provide the protective and decorative functions. Typically, as film-forming substance use synthetic or natural (the corresponding properly modified) high-molecular compounds. In the production of paints and varnishes, these compounds transform into a form suitable for application to the surface (solutions or dispersions of film-forming substances in organic solvents or water). There are also film-forming solvent-free – on the basis of monomer and powder compounds. There are two basic ways to get the film-forming compounds: polymerization and polycondensation.
The first group includes polyacrylates and polystyrene, the second – polyesters, epoxies, polyamides, and silicone oligomers. Oil paint is undoubtedly among the most old and well-known finishing materials. The oils act as a binder in its ability to dry out in a thin layer can be divided into drying, poluvysyhayuschie and non-drying. To include drying tung, flaxseed and hempseed oil to poluvysyhayuschim – sunflower, corn and soy, and to nondrying – castor. The highest degree of filling and low flow have on the linseed oil paint. Alkyd resins Alkyd resins are produced by the synthesis of plant oils with polyols, organic acids and anhydrides. The higher the fat content (oil content) in the alkyd resin, the elastic alkyd enamel, and the more time it drying. Compared with oil paints alkyd based paint much faster drying, and characterized by high hardness and resistance to weathering.
