EPDM Attributes

Colorful EPDM rubber granule feature :real raw material, non slip ,non-static ,high flexibility ,withstanding wear and tear dencay, sharp color, light gravity, strong adhesiveness ,and there is no dust and powder absorption on it and very clean. EPDM particle is a kind of high-tech chemical and environment-friendly product. As the ternary polymer made up of ethylene, propylene and a small quantity of the unconjugated, EPDM has extremely excellent features of ozone resistance, weather resistance, aging resistance and electrical insulation and outstanding color stability.

The performance of EPDM track:

1. Environment friendly: Non-toxic, nuisanceless and satisfactory.
2. All-weather use: It can keep high quality in any seasons and under any temperature difference and can be used immediately after rain.
3. Elasticity: It has proper elasticity and anti-elasticity that can decrease the consumption of physical energy and increase competition performance.
4. Absorption of impact force: It can moderately absorb the impact force of foot, decrease sports damage and is suitable for long-term exercise and competition.
5. Weather resistance: It wont fade, powder or soften due to ultraviolet, ozone and acid rain and can keep fresh color permanently
Wearing resistance: It has strong friction resistance, so it can meet the demand on long-term and high-frequency use.
6. Compressibility resistance: Its impossible that the elasticity cannot recover due to the weight of athletic equipment.
9. Resistance to impact: It has tenacious elastic layer and buffer layer. So it can absorb strong impact without any damage to the surface.
10. Flatness: The surface is flat due to the use of self-flatting material when construction. So it can meet the requirement of especially flat sports ground.
11. Strong adhesion: It can be used for special construction with strong adhesion and can prevent water rising without bubble and desquamation etc.
12. Security: It can prevent injury due to tumble.
13. Economy: It doesnt need special maintenance except current cleaning.
14. Color: The surface color is soft. The surface material of the particle can prevent the reflection of dazzling light and its beautiful and lasting.

Roof Repair of Roof Leaks

Finding a leak and making repairs to a pitched roof is challenging enough; attempting the same process on a flat roof is nearly impossible. This is primarily because water damage on this type of roof will never show up anywhere near where the leak originally occurred. The difference lies in predicting how the water will run. On a pitched roof, water will run where? Down. On a flat roof water runs – anywhere it has a mind to, which is why it will probably take the keen eye and experience of a professional roofing contractor to locate your leak and make the necessary flat roof repair.

The first step in is to get up there when the surface is completely dry. This climbing on top of a building is enough to make many folks run for the nearest phone to call their roofing specialist! Once you are on the roof, you can inspect for cracks or holes in the seams of the roof or flashing. Exposed nail heads are another place where water can get in and cause damage. 

You can also check for a ring of dirt or discoloration to the rocks or gravel that may signify a low spot in the roof where water tends to puddle. Check these spots for signs of cracks or holes as well. Testing for leaks on a flat roof can be done – if you have the patience and a few hours to do so. It will require bringing a garden hose up to the roof and running it slowly at the drain points to see if a leak comes out of hiding. 

Keep in mind that it can take many minutes before a leak on the outside will present itself inside. This process will need to be repeated over the entire roof, taking the better part of a day in some cases to discover the culprit. Once you find the point of the leak, you can begin the process of flat roof repair.

This is another point where many homeowners will opt to hire the services of a professional, since flat roof repair requires equipment that the average homeowner does not own and is rather expensive to rent or purchase. Many don't like the idea of spending hours doing handyman work a number of feet off the ground. To keep yourself safe on top of the roof, wear shoes with thick, non-skid soles and pay special attention to power lines located around your house. Do not use a ladder that is in need of repair and always climb one rung at a time. By following these steps, you can do much to prevent a potential accident. More Information

EPDM Rubber For Roof Repair

EPDM Rubber has had a long history of superior performance in hoses, molded products, tires and roofing membranes. For example, the radiator hoses in our cars and the gaskets on our freezer doors are made of EPDM rubber and show the broad temperature range the product can handle. EPDM Roofing Membranes also have more than 30 years of successful history. EPDM is relatively inexpensive, simple to install, and fairly clean to work with when compared to conventional materials. 

There are not the strong odors and fumes either. The product is very stable and the resulting characteristics of Liquid EPDM such as flexibility, weatherability and chemical resistance are determined by it. Liquid EPDM therefore, can be described as a new form of an old and well-established rubber polymer. Now you can take advantage of the same benefits to weather-tight your leaks. Liquid EPDM forms a 100% seamless layer. 

No other product can match the durability of EPDM Liquid Roof. EPDM is essentially immune to the effects of ultraviolet and ozone and is one of the best water barriers known. EPDM also has the broadest temperature tolerance, and is not water-soluble even in the uncured state. Even if you happen to get a unexpected rain shower just after you applied Liquid EPDM there's no need to worry; Liquid EPDM will not wash off.
