PRO-POXY^TM 40 LV LM

DOWNLOADS:

UNITEX PRO-POXY(TM) 40LV-LM is a 100% solids, lowmodulus, highly penetrating, epoxy polymer. PRO-POXY(TM) 40LV-LM, when applied to cracked concrete bridge decks and elevated slabs, seals the cracks against the intrusion of chlorides and moisture, protecting the concrete from degradation and the corrosion of steel reinforcements. PRO-POXY(TM) 40LV-LM is designed to prolong the life of concrete decks in even the most severe climates. Its rapid cure time is advantageous over other polymer systems.

UNIQUELY DESIGNED FOR

Sealing cracks in concrete bridge decks and parking
deck slabs

Protection and sealing of concrete in splash zones

Sealing and protection of interior concrete slabs

165 gal./624 L units

LIMITATIONS

Material is a vapor barrier after curing.
Not for exterior slabs on grade.
Vapor pressure not to exceed 3 lbs./1000 sq. ft.
Minimum application temperature 50°F.
Minimum age of concrete must be 28 days before applying product as a concrete sealer.
Do not thin. Solvents will prevent proper cure.

Cleanup

Ventilate area. Confine spill. Collect with absorbent material, flush area with water. Dispose of in accordance with current applicable local, state and federal regulations. Uncured material can be removed with Citrus Cleaner or other approved solvent. Cured material can only be removed mechanically.

APPLICATION

1. SURFACE PREPARATION: Clean surface by shotblasting or sandblasting to create a bonding profile and to remove curing compounds and all contaminants (dirt, oil, grease, laitance, etc.) Remove dust and debris by blowing off with oil-free compressed air.
Mix only quantities that can be used immediately.
2. MIXING: Mechanically mix component A and component B to ratio with a Jiffy mixer and low-speed drill at 300 rpm for a minimum of three minutes, moving mixer around edges of container to ensure complete mix. Mix only the quantity that can be used within its gel time.
3. PLACEMENT: Apply by pouring PRO-POXY(TM) 40LV-LM on to the deck surface. Distribute the material evenly with a squeegee or a broom by maintaining a liquid head over the cracks during distribution. Continue the application over the cracks until refusal. Remove all excess material with a squeegee, or a broom on textured surfaces. While still tacky, broadcast oven-dried silica sand at a rate to allow even coverage and provide proper skid resistance.

First Aid

Remove contaminated clothing. For eye contact, flush immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes; contact physician immediately. For respiratory problems, remove person to fresh air. For skin contact, remove epoxy immediately with a dry cloth or paper towel. Wash area of contact thoroughly with soap and water. Solvents should not be used because they carry the irritant into the skin. Wash clothing before re-use. Cured epoxy resins are innocuous.

Cautions

Component "A" Irritant: Prolonged contact with skin may cause irritation. Avoid eye contact.

Component "B" Corrosive: Contact with skin may cause severe burns. Avoid skin contact. Product is a strong sensitizer. Use of safety goggles and chemical-resistant gloves is recommended. Avoid breathing vapors. Use adequate ventilation. Use of a NIOSH/MSHA organic vapor respirator recommended if ventilation is inadequate.
