TPO waterproofing membrane has the performance advantages of EPDM and PVC, with the former's weather resistance, low temperature flexibility and the latter's weldability. This material is different from traditional waterproofing membranes, showing high elasticity of rubber at room temperature, and can be shaped like plastic at high temperature. Therefore, this material has good processability and mechanical properties, and has high-strength welding properties. After adding a layer of polyester fiber fabric between the two layers of TPO material, it can enhance its physical properties, improve its breaking strength, fatigue resistance, and puncture resistance. The most important point is that it has fire resistance.

The flame-retardant TPO waterproofing membrane can be outstanding among many waterproof and thermal insulation materials, and it must have its own advantages. Let's take a look at it together:
1. Long service life, if the protective layer is done outside, it can have the same life as the building.
The flame-retardant TPO waterproofing membrane can reasonably buffer the in-situ stress caused by the structural deformation caused by the temperature change, prevent the structural damage caused by the rain, snow, freeze-thaw cycle, dry and wet cycle system, and reduce the harmful substances and ultraviolet rays in the air. Corrosion of bent structures by light. The waterproof material of the wall is the jacket of the engineering building, which bears the erosion of wind and rain. Therefore, choosing a jacket that is firm and durable and can have the same service life as the engineering building can prevent the human resources caused by the construction of secondary heat insulation and waterproof engineering. , the extravagant waste of material resources.
Second, save the use of waterproof and thermal insulation materials.
Under the standard of achieving the same environmental protection and energy saving effect, TPO waterproofing membrane is selected as the wall waterproofing material, which has a certain deformation ability, so it can save the use of waterproofing materials.
3. It is beneficial to the stability of indoor temperature
The TPO waterproofing membrane has a certain thermal insulation effect. Because of the heat storage capacity of the wall, the heat is fixed on the inside of the wall. When the room suffers from unstable thermal effects, the indoor air quality temperature increases or decreases, and the solid layer of the wall can be digested. It absorbs or releases heat, so it is beneficial to maintain indoor temperature for a long time.
TPO waterproof membrane has good thermal insulation and waterproof properties, very low water absorption, excellent noise reduction and sound insulation performance, high tensile strength performance, and the flame retardant grade of TPO waterproof membrane can reach A level.
To sum up, TPO waterproofing membrane has fireproof performance and can be used with confidence. I hope it will be helpful to everyone.
