Before <br />attaching the mixing nozzle, balance the cartridge by dispensing a small <br />amount of material until both components are flowing evenly. Attach the <br />provided flow restrictor, screw the provided static mixing nozzle on to <br />the cartridge (do not modify mixing nozzle). Confirm that internal mixing <br />element is in place prior to dispensing adhesive. Begin squeezing a <br />small amount of material from the static mixing nozzle onto a disposable <br />surface until the material extruded is a smooth uniform color with no <br />streaks. Material with an off color or streaking is not properly mixed and <br />will not set properly or perform as expected. Do not use this part for <br />installation. Once the proper mixture is achieved, discard the material <br />that was initially extruded from the nozzle per federal, state, and local <br />regulations, then begin installation. <br />• BULK: The volume mixing ratio is 2 Part-A to 1 Part-B (2A:1B). Combine <br />components A and B and mix for 3 minutes with a low speed drill (300 <br />rpm), jiffy mixer, or paddle. Mix only what can be used during the pot <br />life.</p> <p>Check our website for the latest version of the Technical Datasheet. <br />www.aquafin.net</p> <p>Physical and Technical Data <br />Gel Time, (ASTM D2471) <br />@ 73°F <br />@ 40°F</p> <p>21 min <br />85 min</p> <p>Cure Time @ 73°F (± 4°F)</p> <p>7 days</p> <p>Viscosity, (ASTM D2393) <br />@ 73°F <br />@ 40°F</p> <p>200 cps <br />1150 cps</p> <p>Compressive Yield Strength, <br />(ASTM D695)</p> <p>16,000 psi</p> <p>Compressive Modulus, <br />(ASTM D695)</p> <p>537,000 psi</p> <p>Flexural Strength, <br />(ASTM D790)</p> <p>12,000</p> <p>Flexural Modulus, <br />(ASTM D790)</p> <p>490,000</p> <p>Bond Strength (ASTM C882) <br />2 day cure <br />14 day cure</p> <p>3600 <br />3716</p> <p>Tensile Strength <br />(ASTM D638)</p> <p>10,400</p> <p>Elongation at Break <br />(ASTM D638)</p> <p>2.4%</p> <p>Color</p> <p>Dark Purple</p> <p>VOC Content</p> <p>0 g/L</p> <p>All data are averages of several tests under laboratory conditions. In practice <br />climatic variations such as temperature, humidity, and porosity of substrate may <br />affect these values</p> <p>Installation: <br />Pressure Injection <br />• First prepare the surfaces adjacent to the cracks to expose clean, <br />sound concrete. The injection ports should be spaced from 8” to 36” <br />apart, depending on the crack width and the thickness of the member <br />to be injected. Next, the crack should be sealed at the surface with <br />EPOXY-GEL at a paste width of 1.5” on each side of the crack. After <br />the EPOXY-GEL has cured, inject EPOXY-SLV epoxy with pressurized <br />dispensing equipment or use the EPOXY-SLV cartridges. EPOXY-SLV <br />cartridges are only designed for small repair projects with cracks at <br />least 1/16” in width or larger. For large projects and/or crack widths <br />less than 1/16”, use EPOXY-SLV bulk units with automated dispensing <br />equipment. Please contact Aquafin Technical Department for additional <br />guidance and procedures.</p> <p>Page 1 of 2</p> <p>(updated 11/22/22-EKAC)</p> <p>EPOXY-SLV <br />Binding Mortar and Grout for Patching <br />• Premix entire unit of A and B or exact portions, 2 parts A to 1 part B <br />by volume, with low speed (300 rpm) Jiffy mixer for 3 minutes. Hold <br />back some neat resin for priming patch. Paint concrete to be patched <br />with just enough neat resin to wet out the surface. Slowly add ovendried aggregate (typically 4-5 parts of aggregate to 1 part epoxy) <br />to the mixed epoxy while mixing with a slow speed Jiffy mixer, being <br />careful not to mix in air. Prepared mortar must be placed before primer <br />becomes tack free. Epoxy mortar may be placed and leveled with <br />trowels. Do not disturb patch until it is fully cured. <br />Gravity-Feed Cracks <br />• Inspect and Seal underside of slab prior to filling reflective cracks. Pour <br />neat EPOXY-SLV into crack, continuing placement until crack is full. It may <br />be necessary to “V”-notch cracks to aid in placement. <br />Clean-up: <br />EQUIPMENT: Uncured material can be removed with approved solvent. <br />Cured material can only be removed mechanically or by soaking in an <br />epoxy stripper. <br />MATERIAL: Collect with absorbent material. Flush area with water. Dispose <br />of in accordance with local, state and federal disposal regulations. <br />Limitations: <br />• Do not thin with solvents <br />• Compressed air equipment must have an oil/air separator. <br />• Minimum age of concrete must be 28 days before applying. <br />• Always test a small amount to ensure that the product is mixed properly <br />and that the material will harden properly before proceeding with the <br />installation. <br />• Do not inject cracks wider than ¼” without contacting Aquafin. <br />• Surface temperatures must be 35°F or above. <br />• Do not use in temperatures above 90°F. <br />• Do not expose stored or uncured product to cold or freezing <br />temperatures below 35°F for any length of time. <br />• Consult Aquafin Technical Department when mixing or placing outside <br />of the temperature recommendations listed.</p> <p>Storage and Shelf Life: <br />Shelf Life: 2 years in original unopened container <br />Storage: 60°F to 90°F in dry and dark conditions <br />Temperature Considerations: IMPORTANT! Epoxy resins are temperature <br />sensitive and care should be taken to condition all components to between <br />60°F to 80°F for a minimum of 24 hrs. prior to mixing and placement. <br />Temperatures colder than stated range increase viscosity of resins and <br />inhibit mixing and flow of materials. Temperatures warmer than stated <br />range decrease viscosity of resins, hasten the cure and reduce the working <br />time. Mixing and curing at less than ideal temperatures, <40°F or >90°F, <br />will require special considerations. <br />Safety: <br />Refer to SDS. For commercial use only. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. <br />Wear rubber gloves and safety goggles during mixing and application. <br />After contact with skin, wash with plenty of water. In case of eye contact, <br />rinse immediately with plenty of water for 15 minutes and seek medical <br />advice.
