Why waterproof tiles prevent moisture penetration

Himei waterproof tile is a material used for building roofs and other watertightness needs. The main reasons for its waterproof properties are due to its material properties and structural design:

1. Material characteristics: TPO on the surface of waterproof tiles is a synthetic material, usually made of olefin polymers. These polymers have excellent aging resistance, weather resistance and chemical stability. This means they can resist sunlight, extreme temperature changes and chemical corrosion, maintaining their water-resistant properties.

2. Thermal welding technology: The waterproof tiles are installed using thermal welding technology. This means that during the installation process, hot gas or a torch is used to heat-melt the TPO membrane and heat-weld it with the base layer or other membranes to form a continuous, seamless waterproof layer. This ensures a complete seal and no moisture can penetrate.

3. Elasticity and flexibility: The TPO on the surface of the waterproof tile has a certain degree of elasticity and flexibility, allowing it to adapt to movements and changes on the building surface, such as expansion and contraction due to temperature changes, preventing the formation of cracks, thereby preventing Moisture penetration.

In general, waterproof tiles, by virtue of their material properties and installation methods, form a continuous, strong, and seamless waterproof layer on the structure, effectively preventing moisture penetration.
