Silicones in Architecture

One of the important silicone materials is used as silane waterproofing agent, which are organic silicone emulsion and other emulsion compound as the main basic materials, adding additives preparation of emulsion type waterproof material. It has a dual function with coating and permeability waterproof in matrix of cement mortar, concrete, wood, ceramics, metal building materials. 

The method of silicone construction is simple, which can be widely used to the old and new roof, roof, basement, swimming pool, toilets and cisterns, water pipe such as waterproof, seepage prevention engineering and it has high and low-temperature resistance, anti-aging, no corrosion, no pollution, and water based organic silicone coating has excellent weather resistance and dirt resistance, can provide long-term building decoration and protection. So it has incomparable superiority compared with traditional waterproof materials. 

General architectural coatings generally have shortcomings such as strong water absorption, poor water vapor permeability and so on, the surface of the paint film often appear foaming, peeling phenomenon. As a result, the excellent performance coatings with low water absorbability and high water vapor transmittance, water-based organic silicone coating can meet these requirements exactly. And water based organic silicone coating has excellent weather resistance and dirt resistance, which can provide long-term for building decoration and protection. 

In short, construction has become the widest application field of water based organic silicone coating , it's very important for exterior wall coating to have the resistance to water, environment, climate and other external factors of erosion ability.
