Tytan polyurethane foam: glue-foam "60 seconds", professional fire-fighting material, characteristics of the winter composition

Manufacturers

The construction market is rich in a variety of sealants, but this does not mean that all of them meet the quality requirements. Often, stores receive foams that have not been certified and do not meet the necessary requirements. Some manufacturers do not completely pour the composition into a container, or instead of gas use volatile components that harm the atmosphere.

The most popular manufacturer of winter sealants is Soudal.

The products have the following characteristics:

temperature of use - above -25 ° C;
foam output at -25 ° C - 30 liters;
exposure duration at -25 ° C - 12 hours;
foam heating temperature - no more than 50 ° C.

Another equally well-known manufacturer of building materials is the Macroflex company.

Products have the following properties:

use temperature - above -10 ° С;
polyurethane base;
dimensional stability;
exposure duration - 10 hours;
foam output at -10 ° C - 25 liters;
soundproofing properties.

Testimonial: TYTAN polyurethane foam-glue 60 seconds - Overrated by Titan.

Good day to all. I will continue the epic of testing foam glue of various brands. And today I want to share my impressions of “Titan 60 Seconds”. Actually, I already had a couple of reviews about “Titan” and all were positive. And the consumption is good, and it glues perfectly, and the data is accurate and transparent and. But everything is better in order and slowly. So: "Titanium 60 seconds", which I met today. As well as last time about the foam: the inscriptions on the cylinder indicate the materials that can be glued and there are already a lot of them. True, I have never glued aerated concrete partitions to the foam glue. , and now I'm thinking, but if the gas block needs to be corrected in two minutes, will it be possible to do it? If not, what are the consequences? If anyone came across, can you tell me? I will be grateful. And the tiles, for me, are also questionable, but oh well, it's not time yet.

In general, why was he at the facility today: it was necessary to glue in small details and, in order not to wait another day, to seal them up with a net as soon as possible. And since 60 seconds is fast, so they took it to speed up the work and for a test at the same time. And the adhesion parameters inspire confidence.

Further on the cylinder there are technical data that show that this is a really great thing, and the output is about 40 running meters. I'll make a reservation: a balloon costs 300 rubles, just something, almost for nothing.

Manufacturer Poland, importer Moscow, all the details, that is, are available. And it's good, simple and straightforward. The principles of operation and partial guidance for use are clearly indicated.

Visual photos, in fact, allow you to better perceive information than just text in small print. This is another plus for the manufacturer.

So, what do we have according to safety rules, do we have warnings? Oh, and here I don't even know what to say: if inhaled, it can cause allergic reactions, both of the respiratory system and skin. Suspected of causing cancer, can cause damage to organs with prolonged or repeated use? And is it all in one bottle?

Yes. well, okay, we have small volumes today, and in the fresh air, let's take a chance and check the foam. Today we need to glue such places. Nothing at all, a total of 24 pieces 14 cm long and 3.5 cm wide. This is eight meters of foam and half an hour of work. Things are good.

Features of the use of polyurethane foam in the cold

Frost-resistant compounds for installation work do not lose their quality at temperatures of -10-25 ° C. When the prepolymer is displaced from the tube, the volume of the assembly tool increases tenfold, which makes it possible to perform large-scale work with one cylinder of assembly winter foam.

Features of using the foamy substance in the cold:

When the composition is displaced from the tube, the mass first shrinks and is drawn in. But under the influence of subzero temperatures, the viscosity of the material increases.
After applying the polyurethane sealant, the mass gradually increases in volume.Due to the negative temperature, the pressure in the cells of the substance decreases, and the expansion process slows down.
In the process of increasing the assembly sealant in volume, it is impossible to influence the mass mechanically. The material remains brittle for 3-6 hours.

During polymerization, the foam absorbs moisture from the atmosphere. In severe frost, air humidity is low, and the rate of solidification decreases. If winter compounds are used at a temperature of +20 degrees, the foam yield will be about 45 liters, and the initial solidification time will be 1-1.5 hours. At zero air temperature, the amount of foam when displaced from the tube will decrease to 35 liters, and the primary expansion lasts 3-6 hours. If the frost is -10 degrees outside, the foam output will be up to 25 liters, and you can cut off the excess mass in 5-9 hours.

TechnoNIKOL No. 800 Master

vaporization of the sealant does not contain harmful substances for the environment and humans;
the ability to apply all year round - the temperature range of application is from 0 to 30 degrees Celsius;
accuracy and efficiency of application when using a construction gun.

Advantages and disadvantages

The main advantage of this material is its high efficiency. As practice shows, the use of foam lasts for a long time, even in large quantities.

Another plus is that the foam does not freeze even when exposed to high temperatures. This quality pleases many builders, especially those who are still inexperienced. The demand for Tytan foams is increasing every year due to these qualities and low prices. Average prices for goods of this type range from 500 to 700 rubles in different regions. The low price can also be attributed to the positive qualities of the product.

Experienced specialists also highlight the excellent qualities of the fact that the foam can be used as fireproof, fireproof and fire-resistant, which means that it can be used to extinguish a fire. In addition, as experts say, if you foam the whole house and all the corners, then you can not be afraid of a fire. But there is no exact statement on this yet. Apparently, no one has done this yet, but if this fact is confirmed, then in the near future people will no longer be afraid of fires, and there will be fewer accidents.

But the product, besides the pluses, like all others, has its minuses.

Let's take a closer look at them.

Polyurethane foam does not stick in the cavity, it often flows down. The main reason for this is the weather conditions. Low or too cold weather affects the foam, due to which it no longer has the ability to adhesion - the bond between brought into contact dissimilar surfaces of objects.
Foam crumbling is observed after a year or six months, which the owners do not like. This is due to the unprotected UV rays and sunlight that seeps through the foam.
Wet rod. The consequence is very cold environmental weather or poorly chosen foam curing time (for example: night). The rod had to be dried with a hairdryer before use.

For more information on the advantages of Tytan polyurethane foam, see the next video.

Specifications

Considering the main parameters, it must be remembered that they are common to the entire line of Tytan polyurethane foam:

Able to withstand temperatures from -55 to + 100 degrees in solidified form.
Initial film formation begins 10 minutes after application.
You can cut off the hardening foam one hour after application.
For complete solidification, you need to wait 24 hours.
The average volume from a 750 ml cylinder in finished form is about 40-50 liters.

It hardens when exposed to moisture.
The foam is resistant to water, mold and mildew, so it can be used when working in damp and warm rooms: baths, saunas or bathrooms.
High adhesion to almost all surfaces.
The solidified mass has high performance in thermal and sound insulation.
Vapors are safe for nature and the ozone layer.
When working, it is necessary to avoid inhaling large amounts of gas; it is best to use personal protective equipment.

How to use

In order to perform the installation work efficiently, you need to know the basic rules for using winter polyurethane sealants. A prerequisite - if the balloon was brought from the cold, it must be kept at room temperature for some time (at least 12 hours). When performing outdoor work in winter, the surface to be treated should be cleaned of ice, snow, frost, dirt, which reduce the adhesive characteristics of the sealant.

How to use winter foam correctly:

After preparing the base, shake the balloon with foam, open the sealed package and fix the cartridge on the gun.

When foaming joints and seams, keep the tube upside down. Filling the gaps is performed in one third of the volume.

Winter frost-resistant polyurethane foam can be applied to the surface in several layers after the previous layer has hardened.

The foam is afraid of sunlight, the treated surfaces are covered with polyethylene before applying the topcoat.

The optimum temperature for using sealants is +10 degrees, but application is allowed at -10-25 ° C (indicated on the tube).

Foam adheres better to damp surfaces, but a large accumulation of moisture should not be allowed.

You can cut off excess assembly mass in a day, when the polymerization process of the substance is completely completed.

Before work, the tube with winter foam must be shaken vigorously for 20-30 seconds. Then the components (gas and prepolymer) will mix well, and the mass will easily come out of the cylinder. It is recommended to wear goggles and gloves so that the sealant does not come into contact with the skin or eyes.

Remontix PRO 65

Good foam for a gun, corresponding to the flammability class G1 and GOST. It can resist heating for 4 hours and is suitable for use in rooms with increased fire safety requirements.

An 850 ml can gives up to 65 liters of finished mass. An applicator for application is included for convenient one-time use at home. When spraying, the mass lays down evenly and expands well, making it suitable for filling large voids.

Advantages:

High-quality result in any weather;
It is well cleaned with flushing fluid;
Durability;
It hardens quickly.

Disadvantages:

High price.

The material has problems with adhesion to polymer coatings. They must be thoroughly cleaned before application and the air must not be too dry.

Winter foams are designed for sealing joints at low temperatures, which is important for outdoor construction work in cold weather. In terms of adhesion and insulating properties, they are not inferior to summer materials. We analyzed 10 winter aggregates sold in home improvement stores and selected the top 3 of them.

Penosil Gold Gun 65 Winter

The best polyurethane foam for winter. Its consumption is economical: from a cylinder with a volume of 875 ml, 65 liters of the finished mass are obtained.Product spraying temperature - from -18 to +30 degrees. Neither in the cold nor in the heat, it does not spread when applied.

Fast hardening;
Moderate secondary expansion (15%);
Uniform structure;
Eco-friendly composition;
Low cost.

Disadvantages:

Need a gun.

Irfix STD Winter

Inexpensive winter polyurethane foam with application temperatures from -10 to +30. It adheres to all common building materials. From a 750 ml bottle, 60 liters of finished aggregate are obtained. Complete hardening of the mass occurs in just 6-16 hours, depending on weather conditions. After which it becomes resistant to mechanical damage and temperature changes.

Advantages:

Complete applicator;
Aging resistance;
Uniform expansion;
Low price;
Easy to paint.

Disadvantages:

Afraid of the sun's rays.

Range

When buying polyurethane foam, you need to decide in advance on the front of the work that needs to be done. It is also best to roughly calculate the amount of material that will be needed. The line of Tytan polyurethane foams is represented by a wide range of products for various types of work. All products can be divided into three main groups:

One-component formulations are sold with a plastic applicator, which eliminates the need to purchase a pistol.
Professional formulations are designated Tytan Professional. The cylinders are prepared for use with a pistol.
Compositions for special purposes are used in some cases when it is necessary to obtain any specific properties from frozen foam.

Tytan Professional 65 and Tytan Professional 65 Ice (winter) are some of the most common options. In addition to a large amount of ready-made foam, several more distinctive properties can be distinguished:

ease of use (the cylinder is prepared for the use of a pistol);
has high sound insulation - up to 60 dB;
used at positive temperatures;
has a high class of fire resistance;
the shelf life is one and a half years.

Tytan Professional Ice 65 differs from many types of polyurethane foams in that it can be used at subzero temperatures: when the air is -20 and the cylinder is -5. Thanks to the use of innovative technologies, even at such low temperatures for work, all properties remain at a high level:

The productivity is about 50 liters at low temperatures, with an air rate of +20 the finished foam will be about 60-65 liters.
Sound insulation - up to 50 dB.
Pre-processing is possible in an hour.
There is a wide range of application temperatures: from -20 to +35.
It has a middle class of fire resistance.

When working with Tytan 65, it is necessary to clean the surface of ice and moisture, otherwise the foam will not fill the entire space and will lose all its basic properties. The product easily withstands temperatures down to -40, so it can be used for outdoor work in the middle lane or more southern territories.

After applying the foam, it must be remembered that it will collapse under direct exposure to sunlight, therefore it must be applied between building materials or painted over after it has completely solidified.

The use of professional Tytan 65 polyurethane foam allows you to achieve excellent results: one cylinder will fill a large volume, and the use of a special Tytan Professional Ice compound allows you to work even at low temperatures.

Polyurethane foam (MP) - composition and properties

The material is sold in cylinders that contain a liquid prepolymer and a propellant that pushes it out of the cylinder. The contents released from the container actively interact with atmospheric moisture and moisture contained in the material of which the treated surface is composed.In this case, an active polymerization reaction occurs, in the process of the office the foam hardens (solidifies).

At the same time, the foam is designed to work with almost all building materials with the exception of polypropylene, polyethylene, silicone, Teflon and similar materials. Since the material becomes self-solidifying when exiting the balloon, working with it is quite simple and convenient.

Previously, wide gaps were sealed with tow mixed with cement (without any guarantee of achieving the required sealing result). At the same time, the process was phased, and therefore rather lengthy and labor-intensive. Using a foam cylinder allows you to carry out the same work in one pass, that is, quickly and with a guarantee of the desired result. All these advantages make foam a versatile material that has hundreds of uses in the construction industry.

When working with polyurethane foam, you need to know its advantages and disadvantages.

Titanium O2

The best universal polyurethane foam for a gun from those presented in this rating. The one-component formula expands well when applied to the surface. It is intended for professional use. High performance (65 liters from a 750 ml bottle) is achieved thanks to an innovative formula.

The composition has a high level of adhesion to concrete, brick, glass, plaster, wood surfaces. The foam is free of CFC and HCFC, making it environmentally friendly.

Advantages:

Economical consumption;
Low secondary expansion;
Does not have a pungent odor;
High degree of sound and thermal insulation.

Disadvantages:

The price is above average.

Features and Benefits

Professional or pistol-based assembly sealant Tytan, in contrast to foam with a tube, is produced in specialized cylinders equipped with a thread for screwing a dispenser gun. With the help of such a device, the composition can be applied to hard-to-reach places. Using the gun, the builder will be able to quickly and accurately distribute the assembly mass. The use of such a sealant allows large-scale construction work to be carried out with minimal material consumption.

Any professional foams are used only in conjunction with a pistol, due to which the master will be able to perform the following actions:

adjust the optimal dosage of the material;
adjust the feed rate of the assembly sealant;
use the product sparingly, since when the valve is released, the sealant supply is automatically stopped.

Unlike household foam, professional foam has higher technical characteristics, such as:

good performance - up to 65 liters of foam can be obtained from an aerosol can with a capacity of 750 ml;
small secondary expansion, due to which the risks of deformation of the structure are excluded;
high adhesion rates to any construction products - suitable for aerated concrete, metal, wood, brick, concrete and other products;
fast polymerization;
excellent sound insulation performance (up to 61 dB);
resistance to high humidity and fungus formation.

Any type of polyurethane foam has some disadvantages. The disadvantages include poor resistance to solar radiation and precipitation. Due to the influence of such factors, the sealing seam can crumble over time and become unusable. Other disadvantages of the material include its toxicity. However, work in gloves and a respirator significantly reduces the negative impact of harmful fumes on human health.

Glue-foam Tytan 60 Seconds - review

Great thing for gluing ceiling tiles! You no longer need to hold the tiles for 20 minutes

I decided to replace the ceiling tile with expanded polystyrene, the old one became very nondescript. Without understanding, I bought a tile with yellow flowers, I just liked it.Later it turned out that there are two types of tiles - without lamination and with lamination, and you need to choose different glue for them! The review is dedicated to those who suffered from gluing laminated ceiling tiles

Yes, I was exactly tormented, I almost broke my neck while holding each tile. I tried classic transparent glue (where a man with chains is drawn), and mastic in a jar (especially for ceilings), and liquid nails (ultima and titanium). It turned out that they only glue tiles without lamination - they are simple polystyrene. I bought a laminated one (which has a kind of protective film on top). Yes, you can glue my tile with the listed funds, but you need to keep it for 20 minutes, during which time your hands will disappear by themselves. And I need to paste over 15 squares

Desperate, but suddenly stumbled upon Tytan 60 Seconds. Previously, there was only foam in such cylinders, now they began to make foam glue. You need to buy a special pistol for the cylinder. The glue foam cost me 540 rubles, the gun 200 rubles (the cheapest), totaling 740. I bought it, put it on, it turned out to be not very difficult for a woman.

So, we apply glue, wait 60 seconds (but not more than 3 minutes), glue it. Here's how I applied:

We can say that it is not economical, but having tried a bunch of adhesives, I no longer stood on ceremony

There are two drawbacks for me: you need to buy a pistol (although there is an option for a cylinder without a pistol, but there is less volume), after each tile you need to clean the pistol nozzle, because the foam hardens quickly.

Of the advantages: quick setting, there are no analogues for gluing ceiling tiles, large foam yield, does not expand like polyurethane foam, even a woman can handle it, hands do not get tired.

Scope of application

Professional polyurethane foams are versatile materials. They have found wide application in repair and construction activities.

Such sealants are designed for the following tasks:

sealing of various voids and joints with a size of more than 20 mm. The use of foam allows you to eliminate cracks in the roof, around pipelines and other building structures. The result of using such a material is the absolute tightness of the seams and air gaps;
installation and fixing of door frames, window openings, balcony frames, wall panels, tiles. With foam sealant, it is no longer necessary to use dowels or anchors for fastening various products;
insulation of cold rooms. With the help of foam, you can strengthen the sheets of heat-insulating material, while not reducing the heat transfer of the system;
improvement of sound insulation of building objects, car bodies.

Fireproof foam is often used when installing fireproof doors. A seam made with a sealant will not let smoke into the room. When exposed to fire on polymerized foam, it will not melt, emit harmful substances for human health.

Features of use

Scope of application of Professional O2 65 Tytan:

when building doors, windows, frames, vents;
attachment of building materials, including glass, bricks, bars;
replacement of cavities of various sizes and materials;
closing and insulating cardboard panels, skirting boards;
finishing and insulation of pipes in the sewage system, as well as pipes that conduct water and heat housing;
sealing and joining metal and concrete structures made of finished materials.

Experts and manufacturers recommend the following areas of likely use.

You can use Professional O2 65 Tytan for mounting doors and windows, frames, thermal insulation, soundproofing and closing holes, various cracks along water and sewer pipes, sealing sewer and central heating pipes, joining panels, profiled sheets when cladding a house.
They also recommend using a tube so that too much foam does not come out, it can also be used for aerated concrete (industry), roof insulation (roof), soundproofing of the motor of boats, boats, cars and motorcycles.
In addition, you can find your own application.

Range

In building supermarkets, a foam called Tytan can be seen quite often. There is a huge range of this product.

Tytan materials are varied, they can be:

one-component products that are used in a cylinder, but without a pistol;
professional who need to use a pistol;
special-purpose foams used in areas with special conditions with a high fire hazard;

In addition, Professional O2 65 Tytan foam is subdivided into several types.

Glue "60 seconds", which has the name "Moment" glue. This option is considered the most popular of this series.
Winter and summer foam. Used at certain times of the year. Winter foam does not freeze, which increases its effect and is used with cement. But you cannot apply this sealant to frost, ice, snow, glass. In the winter version, the 750 ml bottle contains up to 65 liters of the final volume of the sealant, but there is also 300 ml. Sealants marked with the number 65 have a high yield of substances, they can be very hazardous to health.
The volume of cylinders is 20, 30, 40, 50 or 60 liters.

Tytan Professional Sealants

Titan Professional offers quality sealants for any task: silicone and silicate sealants, acrylic, polymer, polyurethane (PU), bitumen and rubber sealants. In addition to universal and multi-purpose compounds, the brand offers specialized sealants (roofing, for example).

Silicone sealant

Titanium silicone sealants have proven themselves well in professional circles. They have a high level of adhesion to most materials and are resistant to various weather conditions. A universal sealant is used not only for sealing seams and sealing joints, but also for sealing wires and protecting polyurethane foam from ultraviolet radiation. Withstands 1 freeze cycle.

In addition to the versatile range of Tytan silicone sealants, there are sanitary sealant, glass sealant, kitchen and bathroom sealant, marble, window, door and siding sealant, acrylic bath sealant, high temperature sealant, etc.

Multipurpose sealant

Tytan Multi Purpose Sealant (Hybrid) can be used for bonding and sealing even on wet surfaces. The composition is odorless and does not contain solvents, therefore, after drying, it can be painted.

This sealant is practically non-aging and retains its elasticity.

Like the entire Titanium range, the multi-purpose sealant is suitable for most building materials: ceramics, glass, concrete, cement, stone, metal, wood, polycarbonate, PVC, etc. The sealant is excellent for roofing work.
