In the world of modern sealing technologies, butyl tapes and sealants are gaining increasing popularity. They offer not only excellent adhesion and resistance to weather conditions but, most importantly, a high level of safety for both users and the environment. What exactly is butyl, and why is its non-toxicity so
In today's world, the development of material technologies constantly seeks new solutions to improve the properties of traditional polymers. One of the most promising research directions involves polymer composites reinforced with nanoparticles, particularly those based on butyl rubber (IIR). Due to its unique properties—such as low gas permeability, good chemical
Roof windows are exposed to rain, snow, wind, and UV radiation like no other element of a building. That’s why proper sealing is so important — and in this case, butyl seals are among the most effective solutions. But what types of butyl sealing work best for roof windows? Here’s
Property Butyl Rubber (IIR) Acrylic Rubber (ACM) Silicone Rubber (SI) Ozone, UV, and Weather Resistance Very good Good Excellent Resistance to Mineral Oils and Greases Low, contact not recommended Good (mineral oils, mineral greases) Poor, specification check recommended Fuel Resistance Low Low (limited resistance) Low Water Resistance Good (hot water,
Introduction: Key Factors in Choosing a Protective Tape Choosing the right protective tape is crucial for manufacturers as it affects the effectiveness and durability of joints as well as the quality of the final product. This comparison discusses three main types of tapes: butyl-based, acrylic, and silicone tapes. Each of
pensive due to complex production and costly raw materials. Despite the higher price, their durability and UV resistance often justify the initial investment. Silicone Tapes: The most expensive due to costly raw materials (silicone polymers) and energy-intensive production. Their exceptional properties justify the cost in critical and high-performance applications. Introduction:
Butyl sealants are among the most universal and effective solutions in construction, especially for concrete structures. Thanks to their flexibility, water resistance, and excellent adhesion to concrete, they are indispensable in many construction applications. Application of Butyl Sealants in Concrete Structures Butyl sealants are ideal for flexible sealing of joints,
Butyl tapes and strips are extremely popular sealing materials used in construction, industry, automotive applications, and plumbing systems. However, their effectiveness depends not only on product quality but also on proper application. In this article, we outline the most common mistakes when applying butyl tapes and strips and offer tips
