Composition
Water-based polyurethane cement hybridShelf life
Part A | 9months from date of production. |
Part B | 6 months from date of production. |
Part C | 6 months from date of production. |
Storage conditions
The package must be stored properly in original, unopened and undamaged sealed packaging, in dry conditions at temperatures between +5 °C and +30 °C.
Density
Part A+B+C mixed: ~ 1.25 kg/l ± 0.03 (at +20 °C)
Shore D Hardness
~80 | (ASTM D 2240) |
Tensile adhesion strength
> 2.0 N/mm2 (failure in concrete) | (EN 1542) |
Application
Ambient air temperature
+10 °C min. / +40 °C max.
Relative air humidity
85 % max.
Dew point
Beware of condensation!
The substrate and uncured floor must be at least 3 °C above dew point to reduce the risk of condensation or blooming on the floor finish.
Substrate temperature
+10 °C min. / +40 °C max.
Substrate moisture content
Can be installed on substrates with higher moisture content. No ponding water. Check rising moisture. The substrate needs to be visibly dry and have adequate pull-off strength min 1.5 N/mm2.
Pot Life
Temperatures | Time |
+10 °C | ~ 35–40 minutes |
+20 °C | ~ 22–25 minutes |
+30 °C | ~ 15–18 minutes |
+35 °C | ~ 12–15 minutes |
Curing time
Before overcoating Sikafloor®-31 PurCem® allow:
Substrate temperature | Minimum | Maximum |
+10 °C | 16 hours | 72 hours |
+20 °C | 8 hours | 48 hours |
+30 °C | 4 hours | 24 hours |
+35 °C | 4 hours | 24 hours |
Times are approximate and will be affected be changing ambient and substrate conditions, particularly temperature and relative humidity.
Sikafloor PurCem Accelerator: the aid in the speed of cure for Sikafloor®-31 PurCem® add 5ml of PurCem accelerator to Sikafloor®-31 PurCem® to approximatley the halve time to return to service as above
Consumption
~ 0.4 – 1.0 kg/m2 (depending on the system build-up)
MIXING
Premix part A with a low speed electric stirrer and then add pigment and mix until uniform. Add part B and mix for 30 seconds, until a uniform colour is achieved.
Use a double paddle (axis) mixer and gradually add part C (aggregate) to the mixed resin. Allow part C to blend for further 2 minutes minimum, to ensure complete mixing and a uniform moist mix is obtained. During the operations, scrape down the sides and bottom of the container with a flat or straight edge trowel at least once (parts A+P+B+C) to ensure complete mixing.
Mixing Tools
A low speed electric stirrer (300-400 r.p.m.) and an Exomixer-type mixing paddle suited to the size of the mixing container to minimise the air entrapment.
APPLICATION
On smooth screeds apply the mixed Sikafloor®-31 PurCem® using a short or medium nap roller directly from a paint tray. On broadcasted screeds pour the material and spread it using a squeegee and then back-roll the excess using a medium knap roller.
CLEANING OF EQUIPMENT
Clean all tools and application equipment with Thinner C immediately after use. Hardened / cured material can only be mechanically removed.
