Polyaspartic, developed by Feiyang Protech through independent research, outperforms traditional waterproofing materials. Here are ten compelling reasons for its superiority:

Ten Reasons Why Polyaspartic Is Superior to Traditional Waterproof Materials

1. Exceptional Coating Performance

Polyaspartic exhibits superior UV resistance and high elasticity, with fracture strength exceeding 400%. Unlike traditional materials, it remains intact without cracking or chalking, effectively preventing water leakage due to settlement cracks in buildings.

2. Enhanced Tensile Strength

With a tensile strength greater than 10MPa, polyaspartic adapts more robustly to stress changes than traditional materials, which have tensile strengths of only 3MPa for coiled materials and 6MPa for others. This difference significantly reduces the risk of tearing.

3. Superior Adhesion

Adhesion tests between polyaspartic and concrete substrates reveal an average adhesion strength of over 4MPa, surpassing the 2MPa of traditional materials. This enhanced bonding minimizes peeling and hollowing defects in waterproof layers.

4. Broad Temperature Resistance

Unlike traditional materials, which cannot be applied below 5℃ and become brittle at ultra-low temperatures or soften/melt at high temperatures, polyaspartic operates effectively from -20℃ to 120℃, ensuring adaptability in extreme weather conditions

5. Uncompromised Integrity

Polyaspartic, applicable through hand-brushing, roller-coating, or spraying, forms a continuous, integral film, unlike waterproofing membranes, which risk discontinuity due to overlapping.

6. Exceptional Weatherproofing

With outstanding weather resistance, polyaspartic serves as an exposed protective layer, reducing the need for additional layers, construction costs, and building load, while ensuring the longevity of the waterproof layer.

7. Longevity

Polyaspartic has a lifespan of over 30 years, earning it the titles of "long-life coating" and "noble coating." In contrast, traditional waterproofing membranes last only 3-6 years, and coatings last 1-5 years.

8. Safety and Eco-Friendliness

Traditional waterproofing methods often involve hazardous materials, posing fire risks and releasing harmful VOCs. Polyaspartic, with its 100% solid content and zero VOC emissions, is a safer, more environmentally friendly alternative, minimizing fire hazards, especially in confined spaces.

9. High Construction Efficiency

The fast curing speed and versatile application methods of polyaspartic significantly reduce labor and time, contrasting sharply with the slow, labor-intensive processes of traditional materials.

10. Ease of Construction

Polyaspartic can be applied directly over old waterproof layers, eliminating the need for costly and time-consuming removal processes, and thus streamlining renovation projects.
