Description

A solvent-free epoxy primer. It adheres to the surface it is applied to and increases its impact strength and chemical resistance. It also ensures that subsequent coats and/or aggregates broadcast onto it before it has fully cured adhere to the surface.

Advantages

  • Contains no solvents.
  • Easy to apply thanks to its low viscosity.
  • Increases the mechanical strength of the concrete surfaces to which it is applied and prevents dusting.
  • Penetrates the capillary pores in the concrete and blocks them.
  • Increases the chemical and impact resistance of concrete.

Surface Preparation and Application

Surface Preparation

  • Surfaces to be coated must be free of oil, rust, dust and similar contaminants.
  • The surface to be coated must be free of moisture, and no loose layer whatsoever may remain.
  • Glossy surfaces should be roughened by shot blasting, grinding or milling.
  • Any cracks and holes in the surface must be repaired using epoxy putty.

Mixing

  • All of component B must be poured into component A and the two components mixed for at least 3 minutes until a homogeneous mixture is obtained.
  • Mixing at low speed is recommended to prevent air bubbles from forming in the mixture.
  • A suitable amount of mixture should be prepared during work, and work should continue until the entire mixture has been used.

Application

  • DEMCO EPOX 118 PR epoxy primer and/or a mixture of the primer with quartz in equal proportions is applied to the prepared surface.
  • If required, quartz is broadcast onto the surface. After 24 hours, the loose quartz is swept off.
  • For 24 hours after application, the surface must not be touched or come into contact with water.

Application Conditions

  • Working area temperature must be 15°C – 30°C.
  • The ideal substrate temperature is 15°C – 30°C. The temperature must never be below 10°C.
  • For indoor and outdoor applications, substrate temperature, ambient temperature and ambient humidity must be taken into account.
  • Substrate moisture must be below 4% and ambient humidity below 80%.
  • When applied at 20 – 25°C, DEMCO EPOX 118 PR reaches full cure in 7 days.

Coverage

May vary depending on the required film thickness and the absorbency of the surface. 400 g/m² is sufficient for a thickness of 350 – 370 µm.

Storage and Shelf Life

At 15 – 25°C in dry, closed warehouses away from direct sunlight, in unopened original packaging; 1 year.
