Water-based polyurethane cement hybrid

Always refer to the best before date of the individual packaging.

The Product must be stored in original, unopened and undamaged sealed packaging in dry conditions at temperatures between +5 °C and +30 °C.
Always refer to packaging.

Refer to the current Safety Data Sheet for information on safe handling and storage.

Beware of condensation. The substrate and uncured applied product must be at least +3 °C above dew point to reduce the risk of condensation or blooming on the surface of the applied product. Low temperatures and high humidity conditions increase the probability of blooming.

The Product can be installed on substrates with a higher moisture content. No ponding water may be present on the surface. Check for rising moisture. The substrate must be visibly dry and must have a minimum pull-off strength of 1.5 N/mm².

Before overcoating the Product allow :

Note: Times are approximate and will be affected by changing ambient conditions, particularly temperature and relative humidity.

Note: If a primer other than a scratch coat of Sikafloor PurCem is applied, refer to the relevant PDS of the chosen product for curing times. Ensure that the primer or scratch coat is fully cured before the application of subsequent Sikafloor PurCem layers.

~0.4–1.0 kg/m²

MIXING EQUIPMENT

• Electric single paddle mixer (300 to 400 rpm)

APPLICATION EQUIPMENT

• Squeegee

• Short pile roller

TREATMENT OF JOINTS AND CRACKS

IMPORTANT

Incorrect treatment of cracks

The incorrect assessment and treatment of cracks may lead to a reduced service life and reflective cracking.

Construction joints and existing static surface cracks in substrate require pre-treating before full layer application. Use Sikadur® or Sikafloor® resins.

The System can be applied on green or damp concrete with no standing water. Allow for at least 3 days for early concrete shrinkage to occur to prevent shrinkage cracks from appearing on the wearing surface.

Cementitious substrates (concrete / screed) must be structurally sound and of sufficient compressive strength (minimum 25 N/mm²) with a minimum tensile strength of 1.5 N/mm².

Substrates must be clean, dry and free of all contaminants such as dirt, oil, grease, coatings, laitance, surface treatments and loose friable material.

IMPORTANT

Mix full units only

3 PART MIXING PROCEDURE

1. Mix Part A (resin) until the coloured pigment is dispersed and a uniform colour is achieved.
2. Add Part B (hardener) to Part A.
3. Mix Part A + B continuously for 30 seconds until a uniformly coloured mix is achieved.
4. After mixing for 30 seconds, gradually add Part C while you continue mixing.
5. After combining all parts, mix for an additional 2 minutes, until a uniform mix is achieved.
   Note: At ambient temperatures less than +15 °C mix between 30 seconds and 1 minute longer.
6. To ensure thorough mixing, pour materials into another container and mix again to achieve a smooth and uniform mix.
7. During the final mixing stage, scrape down the sides and bottom of the mixing container with a flat or straight edge trowel at least once to ensure complete mixing.

4 PART MIXING PROCEDURE

1. Mix Part A (resin) for ~30 seconds.
2. Add Part D (colour pack) to Part A.
3. Mix Part A + D continuously for 30 seconds until a uniformly coloured mix is achieved.
4. After mixing for 30 seconds, gradually add Part B and continue mixing for 30 seconds.
5. After mixing for 30 seconds, gradually add Part C while you continue mixing.
6. After combining all parts, mix for an additional 2 minutes, until a uniform mix is achieved.
   Note: At ambient temperatures less than +15 °C mix between 30 seconds and 1 minute longer.
7. To ensure thorough mixing, pour materials into another container and mix again to achieve a smooth and uniform mix.
8. During the final mixing stage, scrape down the sides and bottom of the mixing container with a flat or straight edge trowel at least once to ensure complete mixing.

IMPORTANT

Protecting the material after application

After application, protect the System from damp, condensation and direct water contact for at least 24 hours.

IMPORTANT

Protect from overhead leaks and condensation

Protect the Product during application from pipe condensation or any overhead leaks.

IMPORTANT

Ventilation in confined spaces

Always ensure good ventilation when applying the Product in a confined space.

IMPORTANT

Application on polymer modified cement mortars

Do not apply the product on polymer modified cement mortars if the mortar expands when sealed with an impervious resin.

IMPORTANT

Waiting time for foodstuff

Allow a minimum of 48 hours after application before placing foodstuff in the same area.

SEAL COAT FOR BROADCAST SURFACES

1. Pour the mixed Product onto the substrate.
   Note: The consumption is specified in Application Information.
2. Spread the Product evenly over the surface with a squeegee.
3. Back roll the surface in two directions at right angles with a medium pile roller.
   Note: Maintain a "wet edge" during application for a seamless finish.

Clean all tools and application equipment with Sika® Thinner C immediately after use. Hardened material can only be removed mechanically.
