Epoxy Self Levelling
Flooring Screed
Technical Data Sheet
1. DESCRIPTION
Antel Epoxy Self Levelling Flooring Screed has been developed
typically for areas where optimum chemical resistance combined
with decorative effect is required. By using the most up to date
in solvent free technology Antel self levelling system will
produce an easily cleaned, non toxic, chemically spill resistant
floor with good colour and colour retention.
2. USES
Commonly used in; laboratories, hospitals, chemical factories
and garages to produce a decorative performance self levelling
floor system.
3. PACKAGING
Three pack system consisting of 'A' 'B' and 'C', aggregate,
resin and hardener. It can be supplied in 10 kg. and 25 kg. packs.
4. COLOUR
Typically grey, although specific colours can be produced upon
special request.
5. USAGE RATE
At 3 mm thickness 1 Kg. Will cover 0.1769 m².
6. SHELF LIFE
12 months in sealed containers.
7. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
7.1 Preparation:
Surfaces must be dry and free from all foreign matter such as
dust, grease and dirt etc. Weak laitance and loose or flaking
material must be removed by 'grit' blasting or at the very least
wire brushing. Best results can be obtained by the use of the
appropriate Antel cleaner.
Due to the porosity of substrates having an effect on the
structure of self levelling systems, it is important to apply a
primer to the substrate in order to seal it. Antels Self Levelling
Flooring Screed Primer has been specially developed for this
purpose.
7.2 Mixing:
Empty the entire contents of Pack 'C' into Pack 'B' in a
suitable mixing vessel and agitate for 3 minutes. Slowly add Pack
'A' (previously stirred) while mixing continuously. Finally, stir
for a further 3 minutes to obtain a smooth free flowing mix.
7.3 Application:
Having allowed the previously applied Antel Self-levelling
Floor Primer to cure, pour the compound on to the substrate and
comb out using a serrated trowel and 'spike' roller, which not
only aids movement of the compound but aids de-aeration also.
Apply at a thickness of between 3 - 5 mm depending on
requirements.
7.4 Curing:
Pot life 160g mix @ 25°C = 45 minutes
Thin film set time @ 25°C = 7 hours
@ 10°C = 23 hours
Full cure schedule 2 - 7 days at ambient temperature.
7.5 Overcoating:
Further protection can be obtained by using one of a selection
of Antel floor paints.
7.6 Cleaning tools:
Immediately after use, tools should be cleaned with Antel
cleaning solvent.
