AVAL KT 53 - adhesive for EPS application
Description For application of thermal insulation boards – when the thermal insulation layer consists of expanded polystyrene boards (including boards with addition of graphite).
Element of the thermal insulation systems – an element of composite thermal insulation systems, granted the European Technical Approval (ETA). The main characteristics • increased adhesiveness
• good water vapour permeability
• rapid strength increase
• onto ceramic, concrete and silicate elements
• BBA Certificate
• NSAI Certificate
The main parameters • adhesion to concrete: min. 0.25 MPa
• adhesion to expanded polystyrene: min. 0.08 MPa
• consumption: from 4.0 to 5.0 kg/m²
Water vapour permeability.
Increased adhesion – ensures permanent binding with mineral substrates and insulation boards.
Characterized by rapid strength increase – sets in short time and enables commencing next technological stages fast.
