Sealant ADHESION PU816T is an elastic, one component, self-leveling polyurethane sealant specifically developed to be used as a pourable floor joint sealant in applications where a high chemical resistance to fuels, oils and hydrocarbons is requested. It cures under the influence of atmospheric moisture to form a permanently elastic sealant with excellent adhesive properties and resistance to ageing and weathering.

Application:

Surface preparation:

Surfaces must be clean, dry, free of water, oil, grease or rust and of sound quality. Remove all loose particles or residues with a jet of compressed air, sandpaper or hard brush. Glass, metal and other non-porous surfaces must be free of any coatings and wiped clean with solvent. Pre-cast panels using form-release agents other than polyethylene film must be sandblasted or mechanically abraded and dust free. Porous substrates: concrete, cementitious renders, mortars, brick, etc. have to be primed with Primer ADHESION 110 by using a brush. Before sealing allow a flash off time of at least 15 min.

Sealing:

Recommended application temperatures: 15°-25°C. For easier use or cold weather application we recommend the material to be stored at approximately 25°C prior to use.

In order to guarantee free movement of sealant in joints, it is imperative that the sealant does not adhere to the bottom of the joint, therefore for correct joint making a closed-cell polyethylene bead (joint backing rod) is to be placed at the proper depth.

Apply appropriate primer to joint sides and observe waiting time to avoid that trapped solvent, in condition of rising temperature, can blow bubbles in the uncured sealant. For best performance, sealant should be gunned into joint when the joint slot is at mid-point of its designed expansion and contraction. Firmly extrude sealant into the joint making sure that it is in full contact with the sides of the joint and with the backing rod at the bottom. Keep the nozzle in the sealant, continue on with a steady flow of sealant preceding the nozzle to avoid air entrapment. Avoid overlapping of sealant to eliminate entrapment of air.

All joints must be properly designed and dimensioned by the specifier and the main contractor in accordance with the relevant standards, materials and technical values.

The recessed joint design protects the sealant against mechanical loads. Fill the joint with ADHESION PU816Т 2.0 mm below the surface of the joint sides.

Finishing indications and limitations:

As sealant is self-levelling, it doesn’t need to be tooled. Masking tape should not be used, just paying attention to the product not being put in excess respect to the joint volume capacity.

ADHESION PU816Т is resistant to chemical spillage by: dilute acids, dilute alkalis, aviation fuels, diesel fuels, lubricant oils, petrol, kerosene, cleansing agents, sea water, lime water.

Avoid exposure to high levels of chlorine (avoid to seal joints in chlorinated swimming pools). Avoid contact with alcohol and other solvent cleaners during cure. Do not apply when moisture-vapour-transmission condition exists from the substrate as this can cause bubbling within the sealant.

The ultimate performance of ADHESION PU816Т depends on good joint design and proper application with joint surfaces properly prepared. Do not cure in the presence of curing silicone sealants.

Storage:

ADHESION PU816Т can be stored for 12 months in its original packaging (unopened container) at 10°-25°C in a cool, dry place. The storage temperature should not exceed 25°C for extended periods of time. Keep away from wet areas, direct sunlight and heat sources.
