Often, you must have seen that due to rain or ice, moisture level in the atmosphere rise considerably. As a result, you may often find that condensation builds up on your roof and sometimes even inside your rooms.

Hydromer, Inc. has developed a special remedy to deal with this problem. Their research and development team has developed anti-drip coatings to address this issue.

This type of coating is also known as an anti-condensation membrane. This membrane is a special type of membrane that can be very effective in addressing the issue of condensation both inside your rooms and on our roofs.

This type of special coating can easily work by simply storing almost 1,000 grams per square meter of water on any surface. Water content that is deposited due to moisture will get warmer over time and eventually evaporate.

To make this happen, it is necessary that the environment must be well-ventilated and there is a good amount of air circulation.

The following are a few technical advantages of such coatings:

• Anti-bacterial
• Flammability class A2-s1, d0 (EN 13501-1)
• Durable
• Improved soundproofing with extra noise protection

While such types of coating are manufactured, lamination is used on the coating to the underside. Usually, such laminated coating absorbs all the condensation that can happen due to the presence of humidity in the atmosphere. The capacity of the absorption will, however, depend upon how much is the pitch of your roof.

Also, the coating of the membrane has a certain property that can easily dampen the sound effects, too. As a result, whenever if there is any heavy rain or hailstorm ever occurs, the noise developed due to that will be considerably reduced

It is important to ensure that all the transported sheets are stored properly so that no moisture is present. Make sure that they are installed totally dry and clean to be more effective.

Due to condensation, the following damage can take place:

• It can damage all your stored articles and materials
• The insulating capacity of the material gets reduced
• Disrupt activities inside the building
• It can damage the roof
• Cause premature rusting, etc

What will result from anti-condensation protection?

With the help of such anti-condensation protection, it is possible to achieve a great amount of protection against corrosion.

Metal surfaces are mainly susceptible to corrosion when water is deposited on them for any reason.

When the metallic surface remains protected by the layer of coating, then it can protect against salts and acids developed because of moisture.

This kind of anti-condensation coating layer can also absorb the atmosphere’s water content and help prevent water from dripping too.

Condensation often occurs in industrial machinery when there is a temperature difference across a surface, causing one side to fall below the dew point. This can lead to workplace accidents.

Conclusion

So, if you want to prevent corrosion on metal surfaces, inside your room, or the rooftop, applying such an anti-condensation coating is important. You can also apply such coating on the machinery and equipment.

They will also act as a thermal barrier and will never allow the surface temperature to go below the dew point.
