Big Performance Benefits While Saving Money & Being Green.
Water resistance, sound dampening, heat absorption, energy savings, crack resistance, appearance, durability and flexibility are just a few of the performance benefits you get when using MicroDyne™ sustainable, micronized rubber powder in construction materials. They not only improve performance, but deliver cost savings over virgin raw materials while increasing the sustainability factor of the product, including help with LEED credits.
Today MicroDyne™ micronized rubber powders can be used for:
- Acrylic and Asphaltic Roofing & Asphalt Roof Shingles
- Acrylic and Asphaltic Driveway Sealers & Coatings
- Cement Grouts & Mortars
- Roofing - Roof Coatings, Roofing Underlayment, Roofing Membranes, Roofing System Components
- Waterbarrier Membranes
Due to MicroDyne™’s micron size and high quality, they are easy to incorporate into existing formulations, are compatible with multiple polymers, and provide a smooth surface appearance on finished products.
Lehigh offers a range of micronized particle sizes to fit any industrial rubber application- from 400 microns (40 mesh) to 50 microns (300 mesh). Click here to view the MicroDyne™ product specification sheet, which includes the ASTM specification classification.
For construction applications, Lehigh Technologies works with various types of post-industrial rubber, including natural rubber, nitrile, tire material, and are always evaluating new rubber polymer types.
