Description
Polymer Nation SP-15 consist of a high viscosity, nonylphenol-free, epoxy resin, a thickened, cycloaliphatic amine reactant and a zero, free-silica, powder (PN 1170). This combination, when properly mixed, achieves a non-shrinking patching paste with high compressive and tensile strength and which is easy to shape, sand and grind after initial cure.
| Description | Results | Notes |
| Number of mixes per kit | 1 | A 1 mix kit consists of 32 FL. OZ. A, 16 FL. OZ. B and 1-3 LB. bag of C. |
| Number of Components | 3 | |
| Mix Ratio by Volume | 2:1 see Mixing & Installation | It is always preferred to mix the entire kit, whenever possible, to avoid off-ratio mixtures |
| Ideal Application Temperatures | 60F-90F | Verify that substrate temperature is above 5 degrees of dewpoint during application and cure of material to avoid a potential amine blush |
| Mixed Viscosity in cP@25C/77F | 3500+ A & B | Warmer temperatures will reduce viscosity and lower temperatures will increase viscosity |
| Gel Time | 20 min. | Warmer temperatures will decrease gel time and lower temperatures will increase gel time |
| Dry to Touch | 2.5 Hours | Warmer temperatures will reduce time and colder temperatures will increase time |
| Through Dry | 4 Hours | Warmer temperatures will reduce time and colder temperatures will increase time |
| Dry to Walk | 4.5 Hours | Warmer temperatures will reduce time and colder temperatures will increase time |
| Dry to Lightly Use | 6 Hours | Warmer temperatures will reduce time and colder temperatures will increase time |
| Full Cure | 7 Days | Warmer temperatures will reduce time and colder temperatures will increase time |
| Shore Hardness at 24 hours | D65 | Warmer temperatures will increase hardness |
| Shore Hardness at 7 days | D78 | Warmer temperatures will shorten time to reach full hardness |
| Gloss @ 60 Degree Angle | 30-40 | Applying material close to dew point will decrease gloss and may result in an amine blush |
| VOC’s of Mixed Material | <50g/L | EPA Method 24 |
| Color Scale per ASTM D1500 | .5-1.0 | Clear to slightly amber before filler is introduced |
| Solids by Volume Mixed | 100% | |
| Storage | 60F-90F | Store material between 60-90 degrees F in a protected dry location. |
| Odor | Subtle | |
| Coverage Per Mix | Each mix will cover approximately 3.2 sq. ft. at 1/4″ or 150 LF of 1/4″ X 1/4″ joint. | |
| Disposal | Dispose of material, containers, solvents, etc.per Federal, State and local guideline, rules and laws | |
| Available Colors | This material is available in clear and once mixed with the 1170 will have a similar color to wet concrete | |
| Mixing & Installation | A mixture consists of 32 FL. OZ. A, 16 FL. OZ. B and 3 LB. of C (PN 1170). Combine part A and B into a single container, large enough to accept the entire kit (1 mix equals .5 gallons when Part C is added). Premix liquids at 350 RPM for 1 minute using an appropriate mixing blade. Place mixed material on a mortar board and apply mixed material within 20 minutes using patching techniques. Recoat within 5 hours. Clean tools with a solvent similar to Xylene or Acetone. | |
