CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS
New age Construction technology has created a demand for the use of functional chemical- solutions in niche construction; to ensure safe, long-lasting, resilient and high-performance construction quality.
In parallel, modern architectural designs and concepts for commercial and residential spaces have meant a rise in demand for products that provide fool-proof protection along with an aesthetic appeal.
RPPL has engaged itself into the development, demonstration and application of high-performing construction chemicals to fulfil the ever-growing needs of the Construction Industry.
In association with MIT-WPU, Pune, RPPL has developed effective solutions for the Construction Industry, using I N ' s (Inter-Penetrating Network) based on the Polymer-concrete network. Solutions for construction joint repairs in structures/bridges/roads, mortars to replace conventional sub-floors, grouting solutions for various structural needs are just a few of the application possibilities.
PUCRETE MORTAR SYSTEMS
PUCRETE® is the end-product of novel chemistry demonstrated by the combination of polymeric materials with conventional cement concrete. The bond, created with the use of IN's, forms a network that exhibits high toughness, excellent impact resistance and greater compression ability than conventional concrete.
With new-age construction and design looking to go leaner, PUCRETE® forms an exact substitute for conventional mortar systems that are laid over finished slabs.
Faster application and curing within 24 hours, ability to resist equivalent loads at a much lower thickness (possibility of reduction of dead-load on slab up to 60%) and excellent bond strength with the substrate makes PUCRETE® the ideal mortar system for
- Commercial projects and offices; where faster work-turnaround is necessary
- Sub-floors in spaces like Gyms, where the floor will be subject to heavy impact-loads - Repairs of damaged slabs/sub-floors
Polyfix
PUCRETE® Polyfix is a mortar-like formulated system on the PUCRETE® base. This system has been formulated specifically for application in repair-work of bridge construction joints. Exhibiting high strain rate and excellent damping properties, at superior compressive strengths to conventional cement-concrete; Polyfix is tailor-made for bridge-joints that are subject to heavy cyclic loads due to vehicular movement.
PolyFill
PUCRETE® Polyfill is a flowable system formulated on the PUCRETE® base. The system is designed such that it is ideal to be used for filling construction joints. The PU-concrete network provides the system with a flexible and tough nature, high durability; without compromising on the bond strength with the subfloor. This makes it an ideal solution for construction joints that are subject to heavy tensile and compressive stresses, and where conventional brittle materials fail or yield at a much earlier stage.
Construction Joints
Concrete Expansion Joint
​
The concrete expansion joint is visibly larger than the control joints and they allow for movement of the concrete slab due to vibration, settling, or temperature changes.
​
If the expansion joint filler has cracked or broken away from one side of the joint it is considered a failure. Further, if the concrete joint filler has
caused more concrete damage such as crumbling, cracked, or broken concrete at the joint, it needs concrete joint repair.
​
PuFlex is a one-component Polyurethane Foam, designed as an injectable sealant for construction joints and grooved. The Resin is moisture reactive and forms a closed-cell network when cured, to exhibit good bonding and a non-collapsible structure.
Construction Joints
Concrete Isolation Joint
​
Isolation joints have one very simple purpose they completely isolate the slab from something else.
That something else can be a wall or a column or a drain pipe.
Walls and columns, which are on their own footings that are deeper than the slab subgrade, are not going to move the same way a slab does as it shrinks or expands from drying or temperature changes or as the subgrade compresses a little.
​
Enseal is a 2-component elastomeric PU sealant. The cured sealant is soft, flexible and possesses low viscosity to ensure penetration in construction joints.
Construction Joints
Concrete Control Joint
• Concrete control joints are intended to be cut on the first or second day following placement of the slab at either 25% or 33% percent depth (depending on the day cut). Their purpose is to "control" stress cracking in the slab as the concrete expands and contracts with changes in moisture and temperature. If desired. control joint filler can be installed.
The joint filler is intended to give the concrete joints protection under weight and traffic.
• PolySeal, from Mr.Mason's PUCRETE® family of hybrid PU systems, is used to fill-in Control Joints. PolySeal is a 3-part semi-rigid PU sealant system that cures quickly, reaches
• This type of concrete joint filler can be used in new construction in control joints or in the repair of existing concrete floors wear traffic is high and concrete joints need protection. When used in conjunction with polished concrete, joint filler is ground and polished smooth to provide a seamless floor that is not only protected, but easier to clean keeping debris out of the cracks.
Construction Adhesives
Construction Adhesives. Enseal and Epobond are two powerful adhesives designed for different applications. Enseal offers quick bonding for a variety of materials, while Epobond provides a strong, durable bond, making it ideal for structural applications.
