EPOXY POLYMER CONCRETE 165

Physical properties were determined on specimens prepared under laboratory conditions using applicable ASTM procedures. Actual field conditions may vary and yield different results; therefore, data is subject to reasonable deviation.

Sauereisen Epoxy Polymer Concrete – 165 is a castable material for the chemical-resistant construction of sumps, dikes, containment areas, trenches, walls, floors, and structural support columns or bases. 165 has been specifically formulated for foundation construction and should be installed with proper reinforcement. Mixing and forming methods for 165 are similar to those used for Portland cement installations.

Epoxy Polymer Concrete 165 is suitable to use as a monolithic topping to rehabilitate chemically deteriorated concrete or to protect new construction. This system incorporates Sauereisen’s 100% solids ConoWeld Primer 501 to promote a strong bond.

AREA PREPARATION

Temperature of Working Area
Maintain a temperature of 60°-85°F on air, substrate, Aggregate, Liquid, and Hardener components during mixing, application, and cure. The monolithic components and substrate should be maintained at 60°F to 85°F for 48 hours prior to beginning work.

At temperatures below 60°F, the application becomes more difficult and curing is retarded.

Above 85°F, the material working time decreases. It is recommended that the material components be stored in a cooler area prior to mixing.

CHARACTERISTICS

  • Resistant to a wide range of solvents, oils and acids over a pH range of zero to 14.0.
  • Maximum service temperature of 200°F (93.3°C).
  • Fast chemical set – less down time.
  • Low porosity.
