Strengthen your formulations using Armipent

Strengthen your formulations using Armipent

Friday, 13 March, 2020

Armipent are silica-modified polyelofin fibres that produce a strong three-dimensional structure, strengthening the properties of end products, particularly in high-thickness applications. Also, these fibres are evenly distributed thanks to their silica-modified structure which avoids agglomeration and makes them easy to incorporate into all manner of systems. The incorporation of this strengthening additive into your formulations allows you to benefit from the following properties:

Phase separation prevention
Scope for application of greater thicknesses owing to its thixotropic effect
Flexibility
Prevention of stress cracks due to uneven drying or drying shrinkage
Increased mechanical stability (enhances compression and traction resistance)
Increased adherence owing to the incorporation of silica

Comindex is the exclusive distributor for FINMA Chemie, Armipent’s manufacturer, which offers three product lines – Armipent 532, Armipent 542 and Armipent 5152 – based on the length of the polyolefin fibres – 100, 400 and 1500 µm – to adapt to the requirements of each formulation.

Its use is recommended in a broad range of applications – floors, mortars, putties, flexible membranes, adhesives and coatings – and it can also be incorporated into many systems – 1K/2K water-borne sealing systems, epoxy systems, polyurethane systems, roof waterproofing, cementitious self-levelling systems.
