NOVA E-30 BLACK DIAMOND

NOVA E-30 a waterproofing membrane with waterproofing mass composition
classified as BPP (Plastomeric Polymer Bitumen) according to Standard UNI 8818,
comprised of:
• distilled bitumen modified with a zirconocene-derived elastoplastomeric polyolefin alloy
with high homogeneity and thermodynamic stability, which, due to the intrinsic thermal inertia expressed by the morphology of the polymers used, gives the product high elasticity, excellent cold flexibility, thermal stability and resistance to natural oxidative degradation; indispensable properties to guarantee high performance including: high adhesion to the laying surface, resistance to UV rays, impact and hail, long-term performance.
• 3-ply non-woven heavy-weight CONTINUOUS FILAMENT polyester reinforcement with isotropic properties, stabilised with glass fibre for very high dimensional stability, high resistance to puncture, static and dynamic loads. The membrane is the self-protected type. The standard membrane finishes are: for the outer side, “BLACK DIAMOND” slate micro-chips, for the bottom side,
a hot-melt polyolefin adhesive film. On request and for minimum production batches to be defined in advance, the top side can be finished with a non-adhesive amorphous sand coating or other non-adhesive elements (talc, hot-melt polyolefin film, etc.). Also on
request, for specific applications on a continuous coating of Sopracolle Liquid bituminous adhesive, the bottom side can be finished with a TexFace non-woven black polypropylene lining.
NOVA E-30 has obtained Broof t2, t3, t4 classification for resistance to external fire exposure in special systems pursuant to UNI CEN TS 1187 and EN 13501-5. It also has high hail resistance on both rigid and soft substrates according to UNI EN 13583:2012, confirmed by test report no. 347236 issued by Ist. Giordano S.p.A. (in reference to 5 mm thick membrane).

FIELDS OF APPLICATION
The membrane's very high mechanical strength and cold flexibility, combined with high resistance to weathering, allows its application as a finishing layer of the continuous roofing sealing element in exposed multi-layer or ballasted systems, bonded to compatible membranes. It can also be applied as an exposed single layer for refurbishing works on the sealing element in polymer-modified bitumen membranes.
For specific solutions, it can be applied as a single layer on a continuous coating of Sopracol Liquid bituminous adhesive (for more information contact Soprema technical support - tech-office@soprema.it). The membrane is suitable for waterproofing roofs in general, roofing systems that need to satisfy specific requirements for resistance to external fire exposure, parking lots, pavements, tanks, vertical and horizontal underground structures (to prevent water from rising up from the ground or between sections of the structure) and in all situations where a water barrier is required. Its characteristics make it suitable for all climates. It is not suitable for use on green roofs.

The membrane’s thermoplastic properties allow it to be regularly applied by torch or with a hot air generator, and in special situations, using compatible bituminous adhesives or by mechanical fixing. Due to its high adhesion, it can be applied to any type of substrate including: cement, brick, sheet metal, wood, all types of insulation panels, and other compatible membranes.
