ASTM-C-881: Types I,II,IV & V, Grade 2, Classes B & C

Meets USDA specifications for use in food processing areas

Tested to and certified aganst NSF/ANSI 61 by WQA

 

A solvent-free, moisture-insensitive, 100% solids, medium-viscosity, two-component epoxy bonding agent and injection resin. Recommended for structural crack repair for larger cracks: 0.007-0.030 in/0.18-0.76 mm. Provides corrosion resistance to reinforcing steel and excellent adhesion to concrete.

 

It meets ASTM-C-881 Types I,II,IV, V, Grade 2, Classes B & C. It also meets USDA specifications for use in food processing areas. An excellent epoxy adhesive for use in crack grouting by pressure injection or gravity-feed and for making epoxy mortars and grouts. PRO-POXY(TM) 200 is slightly thicker than PRO-POXY(TM) 204.

Coverage

1 gal./3.8 L of mixed epoxy covers approx. 80 sq. ft./7.43 cu. m.

Packaging

1 gal./3.8 L units (two .5 gal. cans)
2 gal./7.6 L units (two 1- gal. cans)
10 gal./37.9 L units (two 5 gal. pails)
110 gal./416.4 L units (two 55 gal. drums)

Application

SURFACE PREPARATION: Surface must be clean and sound. It may be dry or damp, but free of standing water. Remove surface contaminants i.e. dust, grease, curing compounds, impregnations, waxes, foreign particles and disintegrated materials.
Concrete: Sandblast or use other approved mechanical means.
Steel: Sandblast to white metal finish.

MIXING: Pre-mix each component thoroughly. Place 1 part by volume of component A and 1 part by volume of component B into a clean pail. Mix thoroughly for 3 min. with low-speed drill and Jiffy type mixer (400-600 rpm) until uniformly blended. Mix only the quantity that can be used within its gel time.

TO BOND FRESH CONCRETE TO HARDENED CONCRETE: Apply by brush, roller, broom or spray to cured concrete substrate. Place fresh concrete while PRO-POXY(TM) 200 is still tacky. If coat of PRO-POXY(TM) 200 loses tackiness before pouring concrete, roughen epoxy surface to create bonding profile. Recoat with additional PRO-POXY(TM) 200 and proceed.

TO BOND OLD TO OLD CONCRETE: Apply the mixed PRO-POXY(TM) 200 by brush, roller, broom or spray to the substrate working in for positive adhesion. While coating is tacky, join the coated substrates and secure firmly into place. Glue-line should not exceed 1/8 in./3.2 mm.

TO STRUCTURALLY REPAIR CRACKS BY GRAVITY FEED: If cracks reflect through slab, seal underside of cracks by buttering crack with PRO-POXY(TM) 300, PRO-POXY(TM) 300 FAST, or PRO-POXY(TM) 300 PASTE. Otherwise, pour neat PRO-POXY(TM) 200 into vee-notched crack. Continue placement until crack is completely filled.

TO VERTICALLY ANCHOR REBAR, DOWELS, AND THREADED ROD: For efficient transfer of stress, the annular space around bolt should not exceed 1/8 in./3.2 mm. The depth of embedment is typically 9 times the bolt diameter. Grout with neat PRO-POXY(TM) 200.

TO PREPARE EPOXY MORTAR: Slowly add 1 1/2 parts by loose volume of an oven-dried aggregate to 1 part of the mixed PRO-POXY(TM) 200. Mix until uniform in consistency and color.

Limitations

Minimum substrate temperature is 40°F (5°C).

For best results use between 65° and 85°F (18-29°C).

Do not thin. Solvents will prevent proper cure.

PRO-POXY(TM) 200 is a vapor barrier after cure.

Minimum age of concrete must be 5-7 days.

Cleanup

EQUIPMENT: Uncured material can be removed with Unitex CITRUS CLEANER or other approved solvent. Cured material can only be removed mechanically.

MATERIAL: Collect with absorbent material. Flush area with water. Dispose of in accordance with local, state and federal disposal regulations.

First Aid

EYE CONTACT: Flush immediately with water for at least 15 minutes. Contact physician immediately.


RESPIRATORY CONTACT:
Remove person to fresh air.


SKIN CONTACT:
Remove any contaminated clothing. Remove epoxy immediately with a dry cloth or paper towel. Solvents should not be used as they carry the irritant into the skin. Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water.

CURED EPOXY RESINS ARE INNOCUOUS.

Cautions

Component A - Irritant

Component B - Corrosive

Product is a strong sensitizer. Use of safety goggles and chemical resistant gloves is recommended.

Use of a NIOSH/MSHA organic vapor respirator is recommended if ventilation is inadequate. Avoid breathing vapors. Avoid skin contact.

Avoid breathing vapors.

Avoid skin contact.

Epoxy Polymer Extends Life For World's Longest Covered Bridge It’s a smoother and safer ride for motorists crossing over the Hartland Covered Bridge in Hartland, New Brunswick, Canada—the world’s longest covered bridge. The bridge deck has been covered with an epoxy polymer overlay from Unitex.
