Solvent ased itumen Primer

P

OLYPRIME

SB is a quick drying solvent based low viscosity bitumen primer. It is used as a primer coat onmasonry and concrete substrates to improve the adhesion of bitumen based membranes and coatings.POLYPRIME

SB is low in viscosity, which allows it to penetrate into the concrete pores and improve the ad-hesion between the membrane and the concrete surface. In addition to that, the primer also acts as abinder for the dust particles which gets accumulated on the concrete surface even after cleaning.

CHARACTERISTICS

Improves the adhesion between bitumen based

sheet membranes and coatings.

Cold applied, does not require heating.

Binder for dust particles.

As a curing compound on freshly cast concrete.

Excellent barrier against chloride and sulphate

ion ingress and carbon dioxide diffusion.

Anti corrosive.

Conforms to the following standards:

ASTM D 41 - Asphalt primer for roofing, damp

proofing and waterproofing

BS 3416, Type A Class C - Bitumen based

coatings for cold application, suitable for use in

contact with potable water.

FIELDS OF APPLICATION

P

OLYPRIME

SB is used as a primer and sealer coatprior to the application of bitumen based water-proofing membranes and coatings. This can alsobe used as a curing compound on freshly cast con-crete.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

The application temperature should be between4C to 45C. Application procedures may varyslightly depending upon site conditions. The gen-eral recommended guidelines for the applicationof the primer is as follows:

Surface preparation

The surface shall be cleaned thoroughly of allcontaminants like dust, traces of curing compound,oil and grease. All surface imperfections, nail head

protrusions, structurally unsound and friable con-crete shall be removed and repaired with a suit-able POLYCRETE* concrete repair mortar. The surfacemust be dry before priming with POLYPRIME SB.

ApplicationMix the contents of the pail or drum for a few min-utes to remove any sediments. Apply the primer@4-6 m/lt. to a clean smooth and dry surface bybrush, roller or airless spray. Allow the primer to dryprior to the application of the membrane. Forhighly porous surfaces application of a secondcoat is recommended.

COVERAGE

The coverage is 4-6 m/lt./coat. However, the

coverage will depend on the porosity of the sub-strate. In order to ascertain the exact coverage, atrial application is carried out at site.

STORAGE & SHELF LIFE

The pails and drums must be stored in a covered,dry and shaded area, away from direct sunlight,UV and other sources of heat and protected fromextreme temperatures. The shelf life of the productis up to 12 months if stored as per the recom-mendations. Excessive exposure to sunlight and UVwill result in the deterioration of the quality of the

product and reduce its shelf life.

HEALTH & SAFETY

P

OLYPRIME

SB contains volatile solvent with a lowflash point (38C). It should be kept far away fromnaked flame. Avoid inhalation of vapors and en-sure there is adequate ventilation in the work place.Gloves, protective masks and goggles should beworn during application. If swallowed seek medicalattention immediately.

Apply POLYPRIME SB* (Solvent based primer) @ 4-6 m/lt. as per ASTM D 41 to a clean smooth and

dry surface by brush, roller or spray. Allow theprimer to dry prior to the application of the mem-brane. As the viscosity of the primer is low, it easilypenetrates into the concrete pores which promotesthe adhesion between the membrane and the con-crete surface. In addition to that the primer also acts

as a binder for the dust which gets accumulated on

the concrete surface even after cleaning.Alignment

Start the installation of all membrane plies from thelow point or drains, so that the flow of water is overor parallel to the plies, but never against the laps.All overlaps at the membrane seams shall be in-stalled so as to have "up" slope laps over "down"slope laps. Begin membrane application by un-rolling the roll of BITUSTICK XL membrane and align-ing the side laps.

Application

Peel off the release film from the self adhesive side

and start unrolling the membrane and press it tothe surface. Smoothen the membrane from thecenter to the edges with a wooden press in orderto remove entrapped air. Furthermore, an ironroller shall be used for rolling on top of the appliedmembrane to ensure a proper and strong adhesionof the bitumen compound with the base surface.

All values given are subject to 5-10% variation

Side overlaps shall be a minimum of 50mm on theselvedge and end overlaps 100mm.

Protection

The membrane shall be protected immediately af-ter application from damage, due to ongoing siteactivities or from sharp aggregates during back-filling by a tough, weather, warp and rot proof as-phaltic protection board (BITUBOARD)*. Alternatively,on horizontal areas the membrane can also beprotected by laying a cement sand screed (50mm).BITUBOARD can be fixed with a double sided adhe-sive bitumen tape (BITUTAPE TS)*.

HANDLING

B

ITUSTICK

XL membranes are packed in loose cor-rugated boxes to avoid any damage during tran-sit or during storage at sites. Care should be takenwhen storing the membranes at sites and shouldnot be kept within close proximity of any sharp orprotruding edges to avoid puncturing or damag-ing the membrane.


B

ITUSTICK

XL membranes must be stored in a shadedarea on wooden pallets neatly covered by a thickfabric and tied securely in a manner that will min-imize exposure to sunlight & UV. The membraneshall be protected from all sources of heat. Theshelf life is 12 months if stored as per recommen-dations. Excessive exposure to sunlight, UV andother sources of heat will result in considerable de-terioration of the product and reduce its shelf life.

DISPOSALB

ITUSTICK

XL is nonhazardous, non-flammableand therefore can be disposed off in any regulardisposal area. BITUSTICK XL should be disposed offonly after wrapping with paper, plastic or cloth asthe bitumen compound has a tendency to softenunder heat and pressure, which would make fur-ther handling very difficult.

HEALTH & SAFETY

B

ITUSTICK

XL contains a tacky bitumen compoundand during application can adhere to human skin.

Bitumen stains can be removed by using aclothdipped ina solvent. In case the affected areais a sensitive one, seek medical assistance imme-diately.

Fibre impregnated asphaltic protection board

B

ITUBOARD is a multi layer, asphaltic protection board. It is manufactured by thermally bonding polymermodified bitumen with selected additives which is then sandwiched between a layer of saturated fibre-glass on one side and anti-stick polyethylene liner on the other.

CHARACTERISTICS

Non bio-degradable

Weather, warp and rot proof

Tough and durable

Excellent resistance to chemicals

Improved puncture resistance

Compatible with most waterproofing systems

FIELDS OF APPLICATION

B

ITUBOARD has been designed for use as a perma-nent protection to most waterproofing and dampproofing systems, especially the bitumen basedsheet membrane and coating systems indicated inBS 8102. BITUBOARD will absorb the impact of ag-gregate shock, normal site foot traffic and protectthe waterproofing membrane from penetration bythe sharp edges of reinforced steel and aggregateduring the backfill process and late settlement.


The application of BITUBOARD should be carriedout when the ambient temperature is between 4C

and 45C and should avoided in case of extremeweather conditions such as sand storms, rain, etc.B

ITUBOARD can be fixed on top of the waterproofingmembrane by using a double sided adhesive tape(BITUTAPE TS)* or even by torching (for fixing overtorch applied membranes). Once the protectionboard is fixed in place, supports/props have to beused to keep the boards in place till the adhesiveis strong enough to hold the board. Subsequentboards shall be laid continuously by butt fitting theedges. For irregular profiles, the board shall be cutto fit all intersections and protrusions.The butt jointscan be sealed with 50mm HDPE bitumen adhesivestrip to prevent any backfill material entering andcausing damage to the underlying waterproofingmembrane.

HANDLING

B

ITUBOARD is shrink-wrapped and loaded on palletsfor easy handling. The pallets should be loaded or

offloaded with the help of a crane or forklift to pre-vent damage to the protection boards. If theboards are unloaded individually, it is to be en-sured that they are stacked back on a pallet or ona flat surface.


B

ITUBOARD should be covered and stored in a dryand shaded area away from sunlight, UV andsources of heat. Do not stack one pallet on top ofthe other. It is recommended not to open the shrinkwrap till the time of application. The boards, looseor on pallets, must be stored on flat surface. Theshelf life is 24 months when stored as per the rec-
