TAMPA

The TAMPA tradename plugging compounds are nano-modified polymer mineral composite materials designed for waterproofing work using the injection method (horizontal, vertical, or slant borehole drilling with hydrodynamic and aerodynamic injections); they can also be used for dry mix filling technique in soils and rocks of any water content and acidity, both in sedimentary and hard rock, and in man-made soils.
Applications of the composites
Elimination of drilling fluid loss

Stopping ingress of pressurised water from boreholes

Elimination of gas/mud springs, restoration of natural water confining layers. Elimination of pressurised water ingress caused by a breakthrough
Waterproofing of underground buildings and structures of any type

Construction of in-ground waterproofing barriers


Building cut-off walls to enclose waste dumps and tailings ponds
Anticorrosion protection of pipelines


Protection of sites using hydro engineering techniques


Karstic protection of sites

Performance Data and Specifications


  • The compounds have a high degree of watertightness
    1

  • Adhesion to metals and concrete ranges from 0.2 to 0.7 MPa, respectively
    2

  • The compounds are noncombustible, non-toxic, and show high tolerance to non-polar liquids
    3

  • Our products are resistant to cyclic 'freeze-thaw' action without losing their performance features
    4

  • The watertight diaphragms and impervious membranes built using our compounds are resistant to cyclic dynamic loads and earthquake effect
    5

  • When exposed to shearing action, they can automatically restore their structure due to cohesive properties of the contained polymers

Key Competitive Advantages of the Solutions We Offer

Our compounds can be implemented as a multi-purpose and efficient technique to ensure water tightness and anticorrosion protection of facilities in the construction and installation phase and during their operation.
  • Efficient Performance

    Even in the conditions of a high pressure water leakage
  • Protective features

    Protecting the underground parts of buildings & structures against corrosion
  • Single solution

    Requires no additional roll-out membrane, surface applied or penetrative waterproofing
  • Resilient Ability

    Resumes its original shape after subsidence and shifting of buildings / installations, which may cause a repeated groundwater leakage

  • Versatility of Applications

    Meant for waterproofing of heavily corroded concrete with cavities, holes and cracks 5-20 mm wide, and greater
