Durability
remains a critical performance property for materials used in the
building and construction industries. Still, many are looking for ways
to achieve longevity while also reducing costs and expediting the
building process. Material composition plays a crucial role in finding
this balance, with latex binder systems being essential for achieving
success in Exterior Insulation and Finish Systems and stucco
applications.
Latex
binders are used in liquid-applied membranes to help improve their
performance within larger EIF systems. Multiple latex binder chemistries
are used throughout the many layers of EIFS to enhance performance
properties while also improving the application’s longevity.
