Den Braven EPOXIN F1000 DRY 4,4 Kg

EPOXIN F1000 DRY must not be applied at ambient and substrate temperatures below +10 °C or above +30 °C. At temperatures below +10 °C, viscosity increases. The recommended application temperature is +20 °C with an optimal air humidity of 65%. During application and curing, EPOXIN F1000 DRY must not come into contact with water or other chemical loads – the substrate temperature must be at least +3 °C above the dew point. These conditions should be maintained throughout the application and curing process.

The substrate must be cleaned, free of all non-cohesive parts, and roughened, e.g., by shot blasting, grinding, milling, etc., with thorough vacuuming of all loose particles. The substrate must be free of dust, grease, and other contaminants that could act as separators. The surface must not have rising moisture to prevent blistering or pores. Any unevenness, cracks, and other defects must be repaired. The residual moisture content of the substrate must not exceed 4%. The pull-off strength of the substrate surface layer must be greater than 1.5 N/mm². The minimum compressive strength of the concrete substrate must be 25 N/mm².

EPOXIN F1000 DRY is supplied in the correct mixing ratio. It is essential to thoroughly mix component A with component B by pouring component B into component A (for the colored version, component A should be mixed first before adding component B). Use a clean, slow-speed mixer (300–400 rpm) for thorough mixing. The mixture should then be transferred to a clean container and mixed again for 2–3 minutes to achieve a uniform appearance. Care must be taken to avoid air entrapment during mixing (do not store the mixed material in large amounts or re-mix after 5–10 minutes, as this may lead to a rapid exothermic reaction). The prepared material must be applied during its pot life using suitable technology, such as brush, roller, rubber squeegee, notched trowel, airless spraying, etc. (the appropriate application method should be tested before starting). If the substrate is not completely sealed with the primer, defects in subsequent layers may occur, requiring multiple primer coats for complete sealing.

Up to 50% by weight of clean, dry silica sand with a grain size of 0.1–0.3 mm can be added to EPOXIN F1000 DRY for scratch coats (fine leveling mortar for surface irregularities < 1 mm). Up to 100% by weight of clean, dry silica sand with a grain size of 0.1–0.3 mm can be added to create a scratch coat (leveling mortar for surface irregularities < 2 mm). EPOXIN F1000 DRY can also be used as a leveling screed (1 part by weight of EPOXIN F1000 DRY + 10 parts by weight of silica sand) with a suitable combination of clean, dry silica sands (repair screed for surface irregularities of 15–20 mm). For leveling screeds, we recommend using the following sand mixture: 25% particle size 0.1–0.5 mm; 25% particle size 0.3–0.8 mm; 25% particle size 0.8–1.2 mm; 25% particle size 2.0–4.0 mm (suitable for layer thicknesses of 15–20 mm, with the largest particle size not exceeding 1/3 of the total layer thickness). Silica sands and other fillers should be added to the mixed binder while stirring continuously. The mixture must be well mixed to avoid lumps and filler clumps. Application of screeds and scratch coats should be done using a trowel, rubber squeegee, or notched trowel, with the size of the notches chosen based on the required layer thickness.

After application, the surface must be protected from direct contact with water for at least 24 hours. During this time, the air temperature must be 3 °C above the dew point. Contact with water during this period may cause white spots and a sticky surface.

This product is intended for professional use only. The material should be used in a single operation. At high ambient temperatures or underfloor heating and high continuous loads, visible impressions on the floor (shelves, furniture, etc.) may occur. It is recommended to apply the primer during a temperature decrease to avoid open pores caused by rising air in the substrate. These potential open pores should be treated with a scratch coat of EPOXIN F1000 DRY and approximately 3% THIXOP. For heated spaces, do not use fuel, gas, or wood heaters during application as CO2 and water vapor can adversely affect the surface quality. Electric heaters are recommended for heating.
