Shelf Life
Part A | 12 months from date of production. Protect from freezing. |
Part B | 12 months from date of production. Protect from freezing. |
Part C | 6 months from date of production. Must be protected from humidity. |
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 Hardness
Shore D: 80 | (ASTM D 2240) |
Tensile Adhesion Strength
> 2.0 N/mm2 (failure in concrete) | (EN 1542) |
Application
Mixing Ratio
Part A : B : C = 1 : 1: 1.40 (packaging size = 1.50 : 1.50 : 2.10 ) by weight
Mix full units only.
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. / +40ºC
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.
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 part B and mix for 30 seconds. For the colourpack version, premix part A neutral with a low speed electric stirrer and add part D to it. Mix until a uniform colour is achieved. Ad part B and mix for 30 seconds.
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+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 TOOLS
Clean all tools and application equipment with Thinner C immediately after use. Hardened / cured material can only be mechanically removed.
