Quartz are elastomeric water proofing membranes, manufactured in an advanced continuous calendaring process by saturating and coating a composite carrier with a water proofing compound made of a special grade of bitumen, modified with SBS polymers. While the SBS polymers enhance the thermal, mechanical, and aging properties of the membrane compound, the mechanical characteristics of Quartz are established by the composite carrier made of non-woven Polyester armoured with Glassfiber filaments, which acts as the reinforcement that provides the membrane with the profound mechanical properties of the Polyester and the prominent dimensional stability of Glassfiber mats.
Major Features :
- Substantial Dimensional Stability. - Good Resistance to Chemicals. - Superior Isotropic Mechanical Properties. - Significant Compound Elastic Behavior. - High Performance under a wide range of temperature fluctuation.
Uses :
- Flat and sloped roofs protected applications for medium and large areas. - Foundations and underground structures with critical site conditions. - Protected waterproofing of roof decks or substrates subject to movements, such as metal decks, insulation boards, tiles, etc.
Surface Finish :
The lower surface of Quartz is laminated with a Polyethylene film while the upper surface is covered with one of the following surface finish materials :
- Fine Sand Quartz – S/E - Polyethylene Film Quartz – E/E - Mineral Slate
