POLEPOX-PB 1000
One-component, thixotropic, bitumen-extended polyurethane fluid membrane used for waterproofing and protection. It produces a hydrophobic, elastic membrane with very strong adhesion to most types of substrates, including bituminous surfaces, and exhibits excellent mechanical and chemical resistance. It is ideal for application on vertical surfaces as it does not run or bubble. The product is based on pure elastomeric hydrophobic polyurethane resin extended with chemically polymerised virgin bitumen.
Recommended For
Waterproofing and protection of:
- Gypsum and cement boards,
- Asphalt membranes (including repairs),
- Cementitious substrates,
- Roofs,
- Concrete, steel reinforced concrete, or otherwise,
- Light roofing made of metal or fibrous cement,
- Basements,
- Foundations,
- Closed spaces with high humidity.
Features & Benefits
- Thixotropic: Easily applied on vertical surfaces and complex shapes without running or bubbling.
- Fast Curing: Designed for rapid setting.
- Excellent Adhesion: Bonds strongly to almost any surface, with or without special primers.
- No Thinning Required: Ready to use, though solvent may be used if necessary.
- Thermal Resistance: Excellent resistance; the product never softens. Max service temperature 80°C, max shock temperature 150°C.
- Cold Resistance: The film remains elastic even down to -40°C.
- Mechanical Properties: Outstanding performance with high elongation, tensile and tear strength, and high abrasion resistance.
- Chemical Resistance: Excellent durability against chemicals.
- Humidity Barrier: Acts as an effective barrier against moisture.
Application Prerequisites & Procedure
Prerequisites: POLEPOX-PB 1000 has excellent adhesion to most substrates without primers. Testing before use is advised. Standard concrete conditions: Hardness R28=15MPa, Humidity W<10%, Temperature 5-35°C, Relative humidity <85%.
Procedure: Clean the surface using a high-pressure washer if possible. Remove oil, grease, and wax contaminants. Cement laitance, loose particles, and old membranes must be removed. Fill irregularities with appropriate products. Apply with brush or spatula.
Consumption: Total consumption of 1.5 kg/m2 in two coats.
