What are the advantages of TPE expansion joint tape?
TPE expansion joint tape is a waterproof sealing material specifically designed for building expansion joints and seams. It combines the elasticity of rubber and the plasticity of plastic, effectively coping with structural displacement and achieving long-term stable waterproof sealing.
Compared to traditional PVC or EPDM sealing strips, TPE expansion joint tapes perform better in multiple aspects:
◉ More stable performance: Within the common ambient temperature range of -20 ℃ to 40 ℃, its hardness change is much smaller than that of PVC and EPDM, which can maintain stable sealing performance.
◉ Better elastic recovery: Under the same compression conditions, its compression permanent deformation rate is significantly lower than EPDM, which means that it can still rebound better after long-term compression and have a more durable seal.
◉ High comprehensive benefits: Although the unit price may be high, its long lifespan, low maintenance characteristics, as well as the environmental advantages of energy saving and recyclable scraps in production, make its comprehensive benefits outstanding.
Main application scenarios
TPE expansion joint tape is mainly suitable for joints that may experience displacement and require flexible sealing, such as:
◉ Underground engineering: Expansion joints for tunnels and underground pipe galleries.
◉ Transportation facilities: joints in bridge and road engineering projects.
◉ Exterior walls and roofs of buildings: expansion joint sealing for precast concrete panels, curtain walls, and roofs.
◉ Expansion joint treatment for bathroom, wall corners, and other areas.
TPE expansion joint tape is a commonly used material for building waterproof sealing. It has excellent waterproof performance and flexibility, which can effectively prevent water leakage and adapt to gap displacement caused by temperature changes or structural deformation.
