Safety

Adequate ventilation must be provided whilst work is in progress and is compulsory for closed or indoor applications.; The instructions on storage, fire and explosion are to be observed.; No releases to the sewers or drains are to be permitted under any circumstances.; Ventilation is required with special consideration for enclosed or confined areas.; Air movement must be designed to ensure turnover at all locations in work area and adjacent areas to avoid build-up of heavy vapors.

Pot Life

at 20°C - 25mins; at 30°C - 20mins; at 40°C - 10mins; An initial set occurs approximately 4hours after mixing, light foot traffic permissible after 12hours and with a full chemical cure occurring after 5-7days.; The materials should never be exposed to water, steam or chemical environments before a full chemical cure is completed.; Do not mix more material than required by pot-life.; It cannot be reconstituted. Never add unapproved materials to the mix, in particular water.; After mixing spread out on to the surface to avoid self-generated heat.; Large mixed volumes that are not thinned will flash set, becoming extremely hot and producing smoke.

Advantages

Provides resistance to the majority of concentrated oxidizing acids, such as nitric acid to 50%, sulphuric acid to 75%, hydrochloric acid to 36%, phosphoric acid to 85%, sodium hydroxide to 50% and sodium hypochlorite.. It is also resistant to hydrofluoric acid (with carbon-based filler) and a large number of concentrated alkalis and salts.
