ARGO

DESCRIPTION

The ARGO membranes are made up of dis- tilled bitumen, selected for industrial use, with elastomeric and plastomeric polymers added to obtain a phase inversion compound whose continuous phase is formed by polymers in which the bitumen is dispersed, where the
characteristics are determined by the polymeric matrix and not by the bitumen even if this is the
most consistent ingredient.
The performance of the bitumen is therefore increased along with the durability and the resistance to high and low temperatures while the already optimum adhesive and waterproofing qualities of the bitumen remain unchanged. ARGO is produced in various weights and rein- forced
with fibreglass mat and in stabilized “non woven” polyester fabric.
ARGO POLYESTER and MINERAL ARGO
POLYESTER are reinforced with a rot-proof “non woven” polyester fabric composite, stabilized with fibreglass mat which is very strong and elastic with optimal dimensional stability in hot conditions which reduces the problems of the straightness and the retraction
of head lap joints as it is 2 to 3 times more stable than normal reinforcements in “non woven” polyes- ter fabric.
ARGO/V is reinforced with rot-proof fibreglass mat which is strengthened longitudinally and has high dimensional stability properties.
The ARGO POLYESTER and ARGO/V mem- branes, have the upper face of the membranecoated with a uniformly distributed, fine ser- igraphed talc, a patented treatment which makes it possible to quickly unroll the rolls and install the membranes with the reliable and fast
welding of the joints.
The MINERAL versions have the upper face self-protected with hot bonded and pressed slate granules, with the exception of an overlap- ping side strip, protected by a strip of Flamina film which is torched to weld the joints.
The underside of the membranes is coated with Flamina, a plastic film that melts when torched and which is embossed both to obtain the pre- tension and therefore the optimal retraction of the film and also to offer the torch a greater surface area for faster and more reliable installation. When the membrane is dry laid or spot bonded, the embossing diffuses the vapour.
