A Adhesion- (from Latin adhaesio - adhesion) in physics - adhesion of the surfaces of dissimilar solids and/or liquid bodies at the points of contact of their surfaces. Adhesion is caused by intermolecular interaction in the surface layer and is characterized by the specific work required to separate the surfaces. In some cases, adhesion may be stronger than cohesion, i.e., adhesion within a homogeneous material; in such cases, when a breaking force is applied, a cohesive rupture occurs, i.e., a rupture in the volume of the less durable of the contacting materials. Adhesion significantly influences the nature of friction of contacting surfaces: for example, when friction surfaces with low adhesion, friction is minimal. An example is polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon), which, due to its low adhesion value in combination with most materials, has a low coefficient of friction. Some substances with a layered crystal lattice (graphite, molybdenum disulfide), characterized by both low values ​​of adhesion and cohesion, are used as solid lubricants. The most well-known adhesion effects are capillarity, wettability/non-wettability, surface tension, liquid meniscus in a narrow capillary, static friction of two absolutely smooth surfaces. The adhesion criterion in some cases may be the time it takes for a layer of a material of a certain size to separate from another material in a laminar fluid flow. Adhesion occurs in the processes of gluing, soldering, welding, and coating. Adhesion of the matrix and filler of composites (composite materials) is also one of the most important factors affecting their strength.

Additive- a component that gives polymers the necessary properties.

Acrylic - colloquial name polymers based on derivatives of acrylic and methacrylic acids and polymer compositions of these. Since acrylic is easy to clean, resistant to household acids and solvents, and bacteria do not grow on it, it is most often used for the production of plumbing fixtures, paints, sealants, as well as kitchen countertops, sinks and aprons.

Antioxidants- substances that increase the resistance of polymers to oxygen.

Antiseptics(Latin anti - against, septicus - rotting) - a system of measures aimed at destroying microorganisms in a wound, pathological focus, organs and tissues, as well as in the patient’s body as a whole, using mechanical and physical methods of influence, active chemicals and biological factors .

Antiseptics- chemicals added to the composition polymer materials and mineral compositions to prevent their biological contamination and subsequent destruction by microorganisms.

Antistatic agents- substances that reduce the static electrification of polymers.

Anti-friction polymer materials- materials used in friction units and characterized by a low coefficient of friction and insignificant wear.

Armature- a set of auxiliary devices and parts to ensure the functioning of any device, machine, equipment, structure.

Reinforcement- introduction of reinforcement into the product during its production.

Asepsis- a set of measures aimed at preventing the entry of microbes into the wound.

B Concrete- a building material, an artificial stone material obtained as a result of the hardening of a rationally selected and compacted mixture of a binder (cement or other), aggregates, and water. In some cases, it may contain special additives. It has a capillary-porous structure.

IN Moisture release- the property of a material to lose water in its pores.

Moisture resistance- the property of the material to provide long-term resistance to the destructive effects of moisture during periodic wetting and drying.

Humidity- ratio of the mass of water in this moment in a material, to the mass of the material in a dry state.

Waterproof- (W) - the ability of concrete not to allow water to pass through under pressure. For example, W20 means that concrete can withstand water pressure of 20 atm (2.0 MPa).

Water absorption- the property of a material in direct contact with water to absorb and retain it in its pores.

Water permeability- the ability of a material to pass water under pressure.

Water holding capacity- the ability of the mortar mixture to retain excess water. Water-holding capacity protects the solution from loss of high quality water when applied to a porous base, as well as from delamination during storage and transportation.

Time… Time to reach full strength - time, during which the material gains full strength according to the characteristics of the binder. Adjustment time is the time during which the material retains its plasticity. Setting time is the period during which the mixture (plaster, putty, glue, etc.) is applied and acquires strength. Hardening time is the time after which a material loses its plasticity.

G Sealing- ensuring the tightness of walls and connections that limit the internal volumes of devices, machines, and structures. It is used in various fields of science and technology. Methods are chosen depending on specific conditions. Soldering and welding of joints, gas-tight cast parts, special vacuum materials, sealing compounds, and seals are widely used.

Sealants is a paste-like or viscous-flowing composition based on polymers or oligomers, which are applied to joints and connections of structural elements of buildings and structures in order to prevent leakage of the working medium through the gaps of the structure and for waterproofing. The sealing layer is formed directly on the connecting seam as a result of curing (vulcanization) of the polymer base or evaporation of the solvent; There are also sealants that do not undergo any changes after application to the sealed surface (non-drying putties). Acrylic sealants - sealants, the main component of which is acrylic. Acrylic is the colloquial name for polymers based on acrylic acid derivatives or materials made from them. Effective for filling cracks and seams in concrete products. These sealants are perfectly coated with paints and varnishes and can withstand slight vibration. The disadvantage of use is low resistance to weather conditions and moisture. Acrylic-based sealants do not contain solvents. Acrylic sealants have good adhesion (popularly called stickiness) to concrete, brickwork, wood, plaster, etc. They do not withstand deformation. The cheapest of modern construction sealants - acrylic ones, as a rule, are not intended for outdoor use at all. The reason is that acrylic mastics are not elastic, but plastic - they apply well, but do not withstand mechanical loads and temperature changes. The scope of application of acrylic sealants is not critical areas of internal sealing. Bitumen sealants- sealants based on bitumen. They are insoluble in water, soluble completely or partially in benzene, hydrogen sulfide, chloroform and other organic solvents. They have good adhesion to a wide range of substrates (concrete, bitumen, wood, metal, plastic). For use on damp substrates. Operates at low temperatures. The main area of ​​application is filling cracks in the roof, basement, foundation, etc. Butyl sealants– these are sealants based on butyl - the monovalent butane radical (C4H9). Mainly used for the manufacture of double-glazed windows. They have excellent adhesion to glass, aluminum and galvanized steel. Does not contain solvents. They are vapor permeable, which is very important in the production of double-glazed windows. They have low strength at low temperatures. They are highly resistant to UV radiation. The disadvantages of this sealant include its color - only black, and its use in only one area. Polyurethane sealants- Sealants based on polyurethane - a synthetic elastomer (highly elastic polymer) with programmable properties. Used for sealing and gluing various types of materials - plastic, glass, paving stones, concrete, metal, ceramics. There are one-component and two-component ones. Polyurethane sealants are universal, durable and elastic, and do not shrink during vulcanization. They stick to any material, and you can work with them in any weather conditions. Interpanel joints are made with polyurethane sealant, durable and of high quality. Polyurethanes do not shrink during vulcanization, so the sealant consumption can be accurately calculated. Polyurethane sealants are durable and elastic, able to withstand long-term regular deformation and restore their shape. Silicone sealants- these are low molecular weight silicone rubbers (organosilicon polymer, usually dimethylpolysiloxane with terminal hydroxyl groups). The composition may include various fillers that make the sealant fire-resistant and heat-resistant. They also improve adhesion to various building materials. They are used for external and internal work. Some of the most durable due to their high resistance to various temperatures, mechanical stress and ultraviolet radiation, however, they have several significant drawbacks, they have good adhesion only to a strictly defined amount of materials, cannot be applied to wet substrates, and have a fairly long curing period - especially at low temperatures and humidity, do not stain. Thiokol (Polysulfide)- sealants based on liquid polysulfide rubbers (thiokols) - artificial rubbers made using polysulfide - a polysulfur compound. Widely used in shipbuilding, aircraft construction, radio electronics, electrical engineering and civil engineering, for example for sealing interpanel joints. Completely vulcanizes after 10 days. These sealants are less durable than silicone sealants and have little resistance to deformation (no more than 25%). The disadvantages of thiokol sealants include low thixotropy - seams closed with thiokol sealants gradually “slide”, and on the facade the seam looks wide and uneven. Seams treated with thiokol sealant turn black over time. They can only be applied at temperatures above −10 °C and cannot be applied to a wet surface; accordingly, the application mode is highly dependent on weather conditions. MS-polymersealants- These are sealants based on modified silicone. They have the advantages of both silicone and polyurethane. Excellent adhesion to almost all materials: metal, wood, plastic, glass, ceramic tiles, concrete, natural stone. Elastic and resilient. High temperature resistance. Resistant to atmospheric and weather influences. Adhesion to wet substrates. Dust and dirt repellent. We paint.

Waterproofing- protection building structures from exposure, penetration of water or other aggressive liquid.

Hydromonitor- (from ancient Greek "hydro" - water and English "monitor", English hydromonitor) - a device used to create (form) a dense, high-speed water jet and control it with the aim of destroying and washing away mountainous rocks rocks and sediment layers.

Hydration- (from the Greek hydro - water) - the addition of water molecules to molecules or ions. Hydration is a special case of solvation - the addition of organic solvent molecules to molecules or ions of substances. Unlike hydrolysis, hydration is not accompanied by the formation of hydrogen or hydroxyl ions. Hydration in aqueous solutions leads to the formation of stable and unstable compounds of water with a dissolved substance (hydrates); in organic solvents, solvates similar to hydrates are formed. Hydration determines the stability of ions in solutions and complicates their association. Hydration is the driving force of electrolytic dissociation - the source of energy needed to separate oppositely charged ions.

Hydrophobicity - water repellent properties substances.

Water repellent(make a transfer to our sealants) - a substance that weakly interacts with water (water repellency), but firmly adheres to the surface. Treatment of the material with water repellents is carried out in order to obtain a coating that is not wetted by water in the form of thin layers or varnish-type films.

Fungus- damage to wood and other porous building materials by plant organisms, not always fungi

Priming- (German grund - base, soil) - Soils can be used as foundations for buildings and various engineering structures, material for structures (roads, embankments, dams), environment for placing underground structures (tunnels, pipelines, storage facilities), etc. Primer(make a transfer to our sealants) - a composition applied as the first layer to a surface prepared for painting to reduce its porosity and ensure the required adhesion paint coating. It differs from coloring compositions in its lower pigment content.

Deep cracks- cracks that penetrate one of the coating layers and can result in complete destruction of the film

Gloss- shine that appears only when viewing the surface at a slight angle.

Dirt retention- a defect characterized by the ability of a dry film to retain foreign particles on the surface.

D Deformability- it is installable independent examination an indicator that determines the preservation of the elasticity of the sealant under statistical deformations of this value. An accredited laboratory, having tested a seam with a sealant at a statistical deformation determined by the manufacturer, sets the predicted service life in the following way: 1) information on deformability is correct only together with data on the service life; 2) the manufacturer must confirm this with documentation (acts, protocols). Example: a sealant with a deformability of 50% and a predicted service life of 8 years is apparently better than a sealant with a deformability of 25% and a predicted service life of 10 years.

Non-covering defect(overlap) with paint - a defect that occurs when painting at different times of the same working day and is characterized by the presence of protruding marks and edges of a previously applied coating

Dispersity(dispersion from Latin dispersio - scattering) - grinding fineness - the size of solid particles of the material.

Dispersing(from the Latin "dispergo" - disperse) - fine grinding of a solid or liquid, as a result of which disperse systems are formed: powders, suspensions, emulsions, aerosols. The dispersion of one liquid in another (not miscible with the first) is called emulsification, the dispersion of a solid or liquid in gas (air) is called atomization. Supplements- These are liquid or powdery substances or elements that are added to concrete. They, due to chemical and/or physical effects, affect the properties of concrete. Depending on the type of admixture used, both the properties of fresh concrete, such as hardening characteristics and spreadability, and the properties of hardened concrete, such as strength and durability, can be purposefully changed.

Fiberboard (Fiberboard)- sheet material made from wood fibers. Soft wood-fiber boards with low and medium density (150-350 kg/m3) are used for sound and thermal insulation of floors and ceilings, for strengthening roofs and ceilings. Semi-hard (average density of at least 850 kg/cm3) is used for interior decoration of buildings, super-hard (at least 950 kg/m3) for floor coverings. The surface of fiberboard can be painted, lined with film materials, profiled, perforated.

Chipboards (chipboards)- made by hot pressing of flat pieces of wood mixed with a synthetic binder. In some physical and mechanical properties, chipboards are superior to natural wood: they swell less from moisture, are less flammable, and have good heat and sound insulation properties. The surface of the wood chips from which the boards are pressed is almost completely covered with a film of a synthetic binder, which makes it difficult for fungi to develop and makes chipboards more bioresistant.

Drainage- a system of trenches, furrows, pipes (drains), wells designed to collect excess ground moisture from the developed territory.

E Natural base- a mass of soil in natural conditions, used as the foundation of structures

AND Reinforced concrete- an artificial building material consisting of a steel reinforcement frame filled with concrete and structurally combining the working properties of steel and concrete. In this case, the reinforcement works in tension, and the concrete works in compression.

Reinforced concrete structures- monolithic or prefabricated structures made of jointly working steel reinforcement frame and concrete.

Viability of solution- time during which the solution is suitable for use.

Gelatinization; gelation - the transition of a product from a liquid state to a solid or semi-solid state. Note. Gelatinization can be done deliberately to impart thixotropic (viscous) properties to the product.

Z Putties- used to fill any cracks, scratches, or gouges in products. They must meet the following requirements: - have good ductility. If you roll out the putty into a roller shape and then stretch it, it should first become thinner and then break. Bad putty breaks immediately. - firmly adhere to the surface on which it is applied. - when hardening, do not shrink, crack or bubble. - the coefficient of thermal expansion of the set putty should be close to the coefficient of expansion of the product on which the putty is applied. Conventional oil putties contain chalk and drying oil. The quality of putties depends on the materials used. If the chalk is wet, the putty quickly loses its elasticity. If there is too much drying oil, the putty will stick to your hands. Reducing the amount of drying oil leads to a decrease in plasticity. Putties lose their plasticity during storage, but when kneaded, their plasticity returns. When storing, putty should be wrapped in a wet cloth to prevent drying out.

Widely used in construction (as facing stone, for lime production, etc.), glass industry, metallurgy (fluxes)

Limelime air– an air binder obtained by firing crushed calcareous rocks (limestone, chalk, shell rock, etc.) containing no more than 6% clay components. The resulting lime is called lump lime, and after grinding it is called ground lime. Slaked lime – hydrated lime, fluff lime. It is obtained from lump or ground lime by slaking it with water. If the amount of water is 60-80% of the mass of lime, the lumps break up into fine particles and fluffy lime is formed. Upon further dilution with water, lime dough and lime milk are obtained, respectively. Used for preparing masonry and plaster solutions, as well as in low-grade concrete used in dry conditions. Fluffy lime used for preparing dry mixtures. Hydraulic lime– hydraulic binder. It is obtained by firing marly limestones containing up to 20% clay components. It is used for the preparation of masonry and plaster mortars and low-strength concrete used in damp conditions. Lime-boiler– ground quicklime. Obtained by mechanical grinding of lump lime. When it interacts with water, a significant amount of heat is released.

KKK- coefficient of structural quality // KKK = R\y where R is strength, y is relative density

Masonry- Masonry consisting of stones or bricks laid in a certain order (with dressing). The main purpose of the dressing is to make the structure solid by laying the stones of each upper row in such a way that the vertical seams between them do not coincide with the vertical seams between the stones of the bottom row.

Adhesive paste- Used for priming, puttying and gluing wood parts whose joint gaps exceed 0.2 mm. The paste is obtained by mixing finely sifted ash, or dry sifted chalk, or micanite dust, or dry asbestos chips, etc. in hot glue. The adhesive paste can also be obtained by mixing the above fillers with other adhesives.

Adhesives- Natural or synthetic substances used to join different materials as a result of the adhesion of the adhesive film to the surfaces of the materials being bonded. The strength of the adhesive joint depends on the strength of the glue to stick to the surfaces being glued (adhesion), the strength of the adhesive film and the properties of the materials being glued. To obtain a reliable connection, it is necessary to carefully prepare the surface of the parts, for which dust, dirt, grease, and rust are removed from them. Wood, metals, and stone materials are cleaned with fine-grained sandpaper. Porcelain, glass and rubber are washed with warm water, then (after drying) they are degreased with gasoline. To make the seam less noticeable, mineral pigments of the appropriate color are added to the glue; usually 8-10% of the pigment (by volume) is enough, since a large number of The dye does not make the color of the adhesive film more intense. If objects are porous and easily absorb liquids, then the surfaces to be glued are pre-impregnated with a very liquid adhesive solution. Adhesives are applied using a brush, swab, or spatula. Glue is injected into the cracks, for example, with a grease gun (used, in particular, for lubricating a car).

Tinting- The process of customizing paint of a specific color by adding pigment pastes to white paint.

Composites- The goal of creating composites is to combine the desired properties of the original components in a new material. A well-known example of composites is the long-produced fiberglass.

Condensation(from Latin condensatio - compaction, thickening) The transition of a substance from a gaseous state to a liquid or solid. Condensation is only possible at temperatures below critical temperature. At a constant set temperature, condensation continues until an equilibrium pressure (saturation) is established, which depends only on temperature.

Design- Engineering solution of an architectural structure, structure, machine regarding structure, plan and relative position.

Corrosion(from Late Latin corrosio - corrosion) - Destruction of solids (metal) caused by chemical and electrochemical processes developing on the surface of the body during its interaction with the external environment. Concrete, building stone, wood, and other materials are also subject to corrosion destruction; Corrosion of polymers is called degradation.

Corrosion resistance- The ability of materials to resist corrosion. For metals and alloys, it is determined by the corrosion rate, i.e., the mass of material converted into corrosion products per unit surface per unit time, or the thickness of the destroyed layer in mm per year. Increasing corrosion resistance is achieved by alloying (additives to metal), applying protective coatings, etc.

Tempered glass glass that has undergone special thermal or chemical treatment to increase its strength. The glass tempering process consists of two stages: heating and subsequent rapid cooling using air blowing. Cooling the surface layers leads to their rapid hardening, while the inner layer of glass pulls the surface layers with it, which causes compressive stresses in them. In this case, the inner layer is subject to tension, since the surface has already hardened. As a result, a system of stresses is formed in the glass (the outer layers are highly compressed, the inner layers are stretched), which provides the glass with high mechanical and thermal strength compared to ordinary glass. When broken, tempered glass breaks into small fragments that do not have sharp edges.

Laminated glass This is a complex structure consisting of several (two or more) glasses connected to each other by a laminating layer. Polyvinyl film or liquid resin can be used as the laminated layer.

Reflective glass (stopsol) has a durable silver coating with an amber or blue tint and has high reflective properties.

Soft coated glass glass is produced by vacuum deposition and is a three-layer (or more) structure of alternating layers of dielectric silver (BiO, AlN, TiO2, etc.). The main disadvantage of i-glasses is their relatively reduced abrasive resistance compared to K-glass, but given that such a coating is inside the glass unit, this does not affect its performance properties.

Heat-saving glass- high-quality glass with a thin-film coating, which is applied by vacuum magnetron sputtering. By letting solar energy into the room, they do not allow the heat flow created by heating devices to escape outside. There are two types of heat-saving glass: i -glass (LOW-E) has a “soft” silver-based coating, which gives the product a bluish color. i-glass is used only in the production of sealed double-glazed windows, and the coated side must face the inside of the double-glazed window. Transmits more than 75-83% of visible light, while reflecting more than 90-95% of heat back into the room. k -glass has a “hard” coating based on durable oxides, nitrides of titanium, tin or indium, giving the product blue or yellowish tints. k-glass is used as regular glass or solar control glass. Transmits 60-80% of visible light, reflects 60 to 90% of heat back into the room. The former may appear slightly tinted due to the durable smoky finish. The surface of the latter has less resistance to external influences, but the thermal insulation characteristics of glass are much higher. At an outside temperature of -26°C and a room temperature of +20°C, the temperature on the glass surface inside the room for a conventional double-glazed window is +5.1°C, for a double-glazed window with K-glass +11°C, with I-glass +14° WITH.

Tinted glass- glass having a certain shade. A distinction is made between mass tinting (the introduction of a dye during the glass melting process) and the application of special films to already manufactured standard glass. In addition to decorative properties, it can transmit a certain spectrum of light waves.

Energy-saving glass with soft coating: K-glass.

To impart heat-saving properties to glass directly during its manufacture, a thin layer of metal oxides InSnO2 is created on its surface using a chemical reaction at high temperature (pyrolysis method), which is transparent and at the same time electrically conductive. This coating has high chemical and mechanical resistance.

The thickness of a standard single-chamber double-glazed window is 24 mm (glass 4 mm, air gap 16 mm, glass 4 mm). The double-chamber double-glazed window has a thickness of 32 mm (3 glasses of 4 mm each and two air layers of 10 mm each). Inside the glass unit there is dried air or inert gas. Single-chamber and double-chamber double-glazed windows are divided into models for general construction purposes and with special properties. The first ones are most common in construction and are used to create facade glazing and dividing partitions. Double-glazed windows with special properties are energy-saving, sun-protective, noise-proof, and impact-resistant (triplex). Solar control windows are needed to reduce the intensity of solar radiation indoors. They are made using different types of glass.

Columnar foundation In terms of material consumption and labor costs, columnar foundations are 1.5-2 times more economical than strip foundations, and when laid deep, they are 3-5 times more economical. Columnar foundations are especially effective in heaving soils when they are deeply frozen. Columnar foundations also have limitations in their use. Firstly, columnar foundations are bad in horizontally moving soils due to insufficient resistance to overturning - in this case, a rigid reinforced concrete grillage is required. Secondly, the use of columnar foundations is difficult on weak-bearing soils when building houses with heavy walls. Thirdly, when installing columnar foundations, difficulties arise with the construction of the base: you have to fill the space between the pillars, the wall and the ground (taking in), which is quite difficult. The main element of a columnar foundation is a pillar (pile). The pillar can be wooden, stone, brick, concrete or reinforced concrete. You can use an asbestos pipe by filling it with concrete.
