Epoxide resin based (Component A + Component B) ready for application adhesive solution, suitable for bonding different products, such as ceramic, marble, granite, acid-resisting ceramic, glass mosaic, and glass bricks, it is resistant to chemical substances (acids) and bacteria, easily applied, washable with water.

Adhesive conforms to the requirements of AZS 039-2000 (TS-11140 - 1993) standard “Adhesives – cement based (hydraulic conjunction), suitable for glazed, ceramic, and floor tiles”.

This ceramic adhesive can be applied in the following areas:

• Food production facilities of all types, meat and fish production industry, butcher shops;
• Pharmaceutical, dye, paper, accumulator, and fertilizer industries;
• Printing houses and laundries;
• Kitchens and canteens of industrial facilities;
• Hospitals  conforming to different hygienic requirements;
• Swimming pools and thermal springs;
• Waste waters treatment and removal facilities;
• Trade centers, terminals, and other places with busy pedestrian flows;
• Adhesive bonding of different materials, such as ceramic, marble, granite, acid-resisting ceramic, porcelain ceramic, glass mosaic, and glazed tiles, onto indoor and outdoor surfaces such as concrete, plaster, and metal.

• Resistant to chemical substances, acids, alkalis, fats, domestic waste waters, chemical waste waters;
• Shows anti-bacterial properties;
• Does not promote formation of mould, epiphytes, and bacteria;
• High mechanical strength;
• Resistant to freezing and warm weather conditions.
• Can be used in areas contacting with potable water;

Preparation of the surfaces. The concrete and other surfaces where facing tiles to be applied should be firm and free of any contaminations. Metal surfaces should be totally free of rust and dirt.

Preparation of the mixture. At the time of use mix together both components of the EPOKS 100 solution, and then proceed mixing it during at least 3 minutes by means of 400-600 RPM mixer till it is entirely homogeneous.

Application. Apply the EPOKS 100 solution like all other ceramic adhesives based on cement. After mixing apply the product onto the surface using a suitable toothed trowel and comb the surface. Then stick ceramic tiles to the combed surface.

In the areas of heavily spread primer and exposed to heavy loads apply thin coat of the solution onto the surface subject to adhesion using flat side of the trowel, then apply epoxide resin based adhesive onto the surface once again and comb it with the trowel. After spreading of the solution with the toothed trowel immediately bond ceramic tiles. Do not apply ceramic tiles onto the solution when it started to harden.

Recommendations. The EPOKS 100 solution should be mixed using proper mixing unit. It should be thoroughly mixed by hands or using trowel. Period of use and hardening of adhesive products containing epoxide resins depends on the environmental temperature. The most effective operating temperature range is +100C- +200C. The prepared EPOKS 100 solution mixture in no case should be diluted with water or fresh solution. After use all hand tools and devices should be cleaned with warm water with powdered detergent.

The product can be stored during 12 months packed in original sacks in dry and cold conditions, provided freezing  is avoided.
