In the ever-evolving world of construction, where demands for performance and durability are constantly increasing, Tec7 has once again proven its innovative prowess. Long known for its versatile and reliable hybrid polymer adhesives, Tec7 has unveiled a game-changing advancement to its formula: nTec Polymer Technology.
This new generation of hybrid polymers builds upon Tec7’s established reputation while pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in adhesive technology. With nTec Tec7, construction professionals can expect a significant leap forward in several key areas:
Unparalleled Strength and Speed
The new Tec7 formula boasts an impressive 15-30% improvement in adhesion strength, with a maximum tensile strength of 380kg per 10cm². This enhanced bonding power is coupled with dramatically reduced curing times of up to four times faster than previous formulations. On porous materials like wood, the adhesive reaches workable strength in just 90 minutes, while non-porous surfaces like metal are ready in 6 hours.
Superior Mould and Bacteria Resistance
One of the standout features of the new Tec7 formula is its exceptional resistance to mould and bacteria. Achieving an ISO 846 Class 0 rating, nTec technology offers one of the highest levels of protection against microbial growth available in the sealant market. This makes it an ideal choice for applications where hygiene and long-term integrity are paramount, such as in healthcare facilities, food processing plants, clean rooms, and high-humidity environments.
Extreme Condition Performance
Unlike traditional adhesives that struggle in cold weather, the new and improved Tec7 maintains its effectiveness even at temperatures as low as -10°C. At 5°C, it cures at the same rate as conventional polymers do at room temperature, making it an invaluable tool for year-round construction projects.
Flexibility and Durability
With an elastic recovery rate of 80-90%, nTec technology can withstand greater stresses and maintain its integrity over time, even in the most demanding applications. This resilience, combined with its top-tier mould and bacteria resistance, ensures long-lasting performance in a wide range of environments.
Environmental Consciousness
Tec7 continues its commitment to sustainability with nTec, offering one of the most environmentally friendly and health conscious adhesive technologies on the market. This focus on eco-friendliness aligns with the growing industry demand for materials that minimise environmental impact. As construction challenges become more complex and environmental concerns more pressing, innovations like nTec Polymer Technology are set to play a crucial role in shaping the future of the industry. With its combination of strength, speed, versatility, and unmatched resistance to mould and bacteria, nTec is poised to become an indispensable tool for construction professionals seeking cutting-edge solutions for their most demanding projects.
