Cementitious Two- Component Water Proofing – Izolatex plus

Description

Highly ﬂexible waterprooﬁng compound having high resistance to salts for interior and exterior applications, composed of emulsion polymer-based liquid and waterprooﬁng, workability improving additives containing cementitious powder components.

Fields of Application

— Waterprooﬁng of swimming pools, hammam, bathrooms, showers, balconies, terraces before laying ceramic tiles.
— Waterprooﬁng of concrete basins of potable water.
— Waterprooﬁng of underground concrete elements like foundations, retaining walls, basement walls.
— Waterprooﬁng of places subject to deformation, pedestrian and load trafﬁc.
— Waterprooﬁng of concrete basins subject to sea water and de-icing salts.

Properties

— Approved to be used in contact with water intended for human consumption.
— Excellent bonding on all concrete and masonry.
— Non-corrosive for steel and construction elements.
— Applicable both on horizontal and vertical surfaces.
— Resistant to freeze-thaw.
— Prevents concrete against de-icing salts like calcium and sodium chloride, seawater and carbon dioxide gas and carbonation.
— Easy to apply either by brush, roller or trowel.

Application

— The substrate must be solid, dry, free of dust, loose parts, paint, wax, oils, rust and traces of gypsum. Cementitious substrates must be cured. Use SIMENTEK SGP500 in case of any loose anduneven substrates to get a sound and ﬂat surface.
— Application should not be under direct sunlight. Dampen absorbent surfaces to be treated beforehand with water.
— Pour 10 litres liquid component into a suitable clean container. Then slowly add 20 kg powder component and mix with a low-speed mixer to obtain a homogenous lump free mix.
— Allow to stand for 5 minutes to mature. After remixing for 1-2 minutes, the paste is ready for application.
— Apply a thin layer of IZOLATEX PLUS with brush, roller or trowel, then after 5-6 hours apply a second coat, to have a ﬁnal thickness of approximately 2-3 mm
— Insert a 4.5×4 mm mesh in the ﬁrst layer of IZOLATEX PLUS when operating around expansion joints, joints between horizontal and vertical surfaces, areas with small cracks or places subject to stress. After the mesh has been laid apply a second layer of IZOLATEX PLUS when the ﬁrst one has set (after 5-6 hours).
— Use IZOLATEX PLUS within pot life. Unfavorable climatic conditions (high temperature, low humidity, wind etc) can reduce this time to just a few minutes.
— Dispose mortars of which pot life is expired. Clean tools and hands with water.
— Protect the surface from direct sunlight, rain, freezing and wind for the ﬁrst 24 hours after application.
— If IZOLATEX PLUS applied surface is subject to foot trafﬁc, cover the surface with a ﬂooring compound or tiles.
— After applying IZOLATEX PLUS, wait at least 3 days for curing in favorable climatic conditions before laying ceramic tiles.
— Avoid mechanical damage on the waterprooﬁng material during covering application.
— When IZOLATEX PLUS is used waterprooﬁng drinking water tanks, do not ﬁll the tank before waiting 28 days for curing.
