When it comes to cracks
in pipelines embedded in concrete and the need to fill that gap or crack to
stop leakage, then the name of leakageinjection suddenly strikes into the mind. There are many reasons for which
people prefer leakage injection on
other leakage stopping methods. If you have planned to go for leakage injection for crack of pipeline
in concrete, you will be saving thousands of dollars which are consumed in
other methods. Secondly, leakage
injection will provide an immediate solution to leakage without taking much
time. There are two popular resins which are usually used for leakage injection including epoxy and
polyurethane. Recently there are some problems which have been reported after
usage of leakage injection. The most
common problem and observation was that these resins used to shrink after few
months of application and leave some place for leakage. In a way, the people
who used to feel free after applying leakage
injection in their houses or offices, they used to get into the trouble
when they used to see the pipelines leaking again and causing trouble.
To counter this problem of shrinkage of resins
after application of leakage injection, two
staged leakage injection has been
introduced in the market. In this kind of two stages leakage injection, two injections are injected into the crack. The
procedure of the first injection remains the same as in all kinds of leakage injection. In first place an
injection is injected into the crack using epoxy or polyurethane. Polyurethane
is considered more affective as compared to epoxy and brings better results as
a leakage injection material. In the
second place another injection is administered into the crack which pushes the
already administered resin at its place in the crack and stretches it so the
material in the first injection does not shrink. The best time to administer
this second type of leakage injection is
between ten minutes to half hour during which the resin of first leakage injection starts taking its
place into the crack. If we look at the utility of two staged leakage injection, we can conclude that
still this method of leakage injection is
far better than any other method. Even injecting a second injecting does not
add much to the cost of the process and yet gives more satisfying results. So,
if you are encountered with the problem of leakage of water in concrete, you
can more confidentially go for two staged leakage
injection
