How much load can a self-leveling compound bear before it cracks? It depends on the compound’s flexural and compressive strength. Both parameters can be significantly improved by adding VINNAPAS® polymer binders. My colleagues at the Technical Centers have a special test method to measure the flexural and compressive strength of a self-leveling compound: first, they conduct a 3-point bending test on a specimen until it breaks. The specimen is then tested for strength while being compressed until fracture occurs. 👉 If you want to watch the whole test, check out our new Insights article: https://bit.ly/4dEvrtA It shows all the tests used for self-leveling compounds – it’s really impressive to see how many tests WACKER conducts on this one application! #selfleveling #flooring #construction #vinnapas
