KEE-Stone FB 60 sets new standard in UV and aging performance
By Edit Team | August 24, 2017 6:51 am SHARE
Garland’s new KEE-Stone FB 60 fleece-backed thermoplastic membrane is formulated using the highest grade DuPont Elvaloy HP Ketone Ethylene Ester (KEE), providing superior resistance to UV degradation and heat resistance while retaining its low-temperature flexibility, which translates into a longer-lasting roof. “In accelerated weathering tests, KEE-Stone showed no signs of cracking or cratering even at 100 times magnification, which is 10 times more than the ASTM D 6754 standard requires,” the manufacturer claims.
Product Advantages
Long lasting & durable: KEE-Stone exceeds standard weathering tests, standing up against even the harshest weather and UV radiation. In accelerated weathering tests, KEE-Stone shows no signs of cracking or cratering even at 100 times magnification, which is 10 times more than the ASTM standard requires. In heat aging tests, KEE-Stone retains more than 90% of its breaking strength, elongation and flexibility.
Superior chemistry & manufacturing: Garland’s KEE-Stone thermoplastic chemistry uses the industry’s highest quality KEE compound, for the longest-lasting weatherability. This formula exhibits superior heat resistance while retaining its low-temperature flexibility. While some thermoplastic sheets only add quality KEE above the scrim, KEE-Stone is formulated with KEE throughout the entire sheet because the sheet is only as strong as its weakest point.
Strong & flexible: KEE-Stone is formulated using the highest grade Dupont Elvaloy HP KEE and incorporates more of this premium polymer per square foot than any competitive product. Plus, the unique scrim design provides superior sheet strength for a longer lasting roof that is tough enough to resist damaging elements like hail as well as general wear and tear on the roof’s surface.
UV resistant & energy saving: KEE-Stone’s white surface and advanced chemistry fight off damaging effects of the sun to protect your building and your wallet. KEE-Stone’s bright finish reflects damaging UV rays away from the building, while the KEE formula locks the plasticiser within the membrane to prevent damaging migration that causes lesser materials to dry and crack under UV exposure.
