CicobondEP
Slow Set Epoxy Bonding Agent
Powerful Protection
Description
CicobondEP is two component solvent free
epoxy bonding agent.
CicobondEP has long setting time that allows
different repair activities to take place during
bonding coating setting time, like anchoring, steel
reinforcement and shuttering works.
CicobondEP also obtains high bonding strength
to concrete, which makes it essential part of any
successful structural repair.
Uses
As a bonding agent for structural repair
specially R.C elements upgrading.
For bonding old and new concrete.
Advantages
Provides excellent bonding to concrete.
Could be coated over dry and damp surfaces.
Provides excellent water resistance.
Ideal for hot and tropical climates.
Safe when used in closed spaces, as it is
solvent free.
Provides superior freeze/thaw resistance.
Obtains high mechanical characteristics.

Application Instructions
Surface preparation
Concrete substrates
All Concrete Substrates should be sound, clean,
and free from oil and grease. Any loose or weak
concrete should be removed using hand tools or
light mechanical tools (heavy tools are not
recommended). Its recommended to wash the
concrete contact surfaces with plenty of water 24
hours before applying CicobondEP.
For upgrading concrete structural elements, its
recommended to roughen the surface to add more
mechanical bonding key.
Steel substrates
All steel surfaces should be blasted or abraded
carefully using sandblasting, any mechanical
abrasives, or hard steel brush to remove rust.
Mixing
Stir the base only separately. The entire contents
of the smaller can (hardener) could be poured into
the base container and the materials should be
mixed for at least one minute by mechanical mixer
using a slow or medium speed mixing drill.
Insufficient mixing may lead to color variation.
Application Apply the mixed Cicobond
EP on the prepared
substrate using soft hair brush, making sure that
the CicobondEP is tacky when the new concrete,
screed or repair mortar is placed. If the overlay
time is finished, another coat of CicobondEP
must be coated.
CicobondEP is applicable to be coated on both
dry and damp surfaces.
In hot climate, its important to check the open time
first before applying CicobondEP, because the
high temperature of the substrate will reduce the
open time of the material obviously. We
recommend spraying the concrete surface by
water just before coating to help reducing the
substrate temperature.
