- Uses
WS M3 Tank and Vessel Membrane becomes an integral piece of a substrate as it protects urethane foam insulation:
- Of oil tanks and other structures from deterioration by UV radiation, leakage or moisture intrusion and deterioration caused by ingress of water, acid rain and pollutants.
- By reducing maintenance costs associated with unprotected urethane foam insulation.
- By prolonging the life of the insulation.
- By preventing scaling and spalling.
