PoliMac® polymer coating is applied to numerous Maccaferri products to meet the durability, performance and cost-efficiency demands of today's civil engineering projects.
10 times better abrasion resistance
PoliMac® showed excellent performance by withstanding 100,000 cycles of abrasion in accordance with test method described in EN 60229-8.
Uncompromised performance at low temperatures
Tests carried out in accordance with ASTM D746 showed that PoliMac® does not become brittle at low temperatures being able to maintain its properties down to -35°C
Outstanding resistance to chemical aggression
The new PoliMac® polymer coating is more resistant to chemical attack, both in alkaline and acidic pH conditions versus traditional polymeric coatings for steel wire.
APPLICATIONS OF POLIMAC® POLYMER COATING
Hydraulic Works
Enhance the durability of hydraulic structures
The action of flowing water and waves has a wearing action on river and coastal structures. PoliMac® coating enhances the resistance and durability of double twist products thanks to its outstanding abrasion resistance
Geotechnical Works
Face the changing needs
The frequency and severity of exposure is increasing. Chemical aggression, expected worsening condition of installation and use of the products require advanced solutions as PoliMac® to support and adapts to the changing needs
Rockfall Protection
Withstand environmental changes
Rockfall protections are constantly exposed to environmental changes: UV radiation, low temperature, salinity and other chemical aggressions. PoliMac® polymer coating has superior chemical/mechanical resistance characteristics to withstand changing environmental conditions.
