SUPERIOR LIQUID BINDER
- LOW TEMP is a is a low viscosity, two component 100%
solids, rapid setting, chemical resistant structural
epoxy. SUPERIOR LIQUID BINDER - LOW TEMP is designed to
be mixed with graded sands for resurfacing at low
temperatures or for repairs and resurfacing where time
is of the essence at higher temperatures. SUPERIOR
LIQUID BINDER - LOW TEMP will cure to yield a hard,
dense, abrasion resistant surface at 35 deg F. Above 60
deg F, areas may be opened to traffic in as little as 2
hours. |
|
USES: |
| Resurfacing
refrigerated areas.
Rapid set patching.
Rapid set coating.
Rapid set non-skid floor
surface or coating. |
|
ADVANTAGES: |
| Superior bonding
properties.
Low viscosity.
Cures down to 35°F.
100% solids.
Easy-to-use 2:1 by
volume mix ratio.
Cures rapidly at
temperatures above 60°F. |

SURFACE
PREPARATION: |
|
Concrete must be clean,
sound, dry and free of all foreign materials such as
oils, grease, paints, sealers, dust and laitance. This
can be accomplished by washing with a commercial grade
detergent sand blasting, water blasting, mechanical
scarification and chemical methods such as acid washing.
If washed, surface should be thoroughly rinsed and
allowed to dry before the application begins. |
|
MIXING
AND APPLICATION: |
|
Mix thoroughly 2 parts
by volume of part A and 1 part by volume of part B.
Prime the surface to be treated with the neat epoxy.
Prepare the mortar system by adding 3-3 ½ gallons of
clean, dry sand to each gallon of epoxy mix. Preferred
types of sand are: hard, high grade silica sands such as
Ottawa Flintshot, Mission or their equivalents, Emery or
other forms of Alumina, and Silicon Carbide. If a blend
of sand is used, mix the sands together prior to adding
the epoxy. Blend the epoxy and sand until the sand is
thoroughly wetted. Screed the mortar out onto the
previously primed area, rake it to distribute, then
compact and trowel to finish. Blending may be
accomplished by using a heavy duty, slow speed 1/2"
electric drill with a paddle, a Kol mixer or a mortar
pan and concrete hoe. Do not mix more material than can
be applied in 10 minutes @ 70°F
or 20 minutes @ 50°F. |
|
LIMITATIONS: |
| Do NOT apply when
temperature is below 32°F.
Do NOT apply to latex
modified mortar or concrete. |
|
CLEAN
UP: |
| Clean tools and
equipment immediately with a suitable solvent such as
xylene or lacquer thinner. |
