Polyurethane Injection Resin

Product Data Sheet (PDF Format) MSDS Sheet Download Adobe Acrobat

Description:

IPATHANE HYDROPHILIC GROUT is a V.O.C. compliant, nonflammable polyurethane injection resin formulated to seal dynamic non-structural cracks in concrete and prevent water migration. Once in contact with water, IPATHANE HYDROPHILIC GROUT expands and cures to a closed-cell, flexible foam.

Uses:

Water active crack and joint repair

Advantages:

Quick expansion.
Cures to a tough, adhesive foam able to withstand varying thermal cycles and movement.
Standard viscosity resin.
Can be used to saturate open cell foams or oil-free Oakum for expansion joints.
Non-corrosive, Non-flammable.
Material can be used in single or plural component injection pumps.

Caution:

Water used to activate IPATHANE HYDROPHILIC GROUT must be in a pH range of 3 �10 for proper cross-linking of the materials and optimum foam quality.

Storage and Handling:

IPATHANE HYDROPHILIC GROUT is sensitive to moisture and moderately sensitive to high storage temperatures. It is recommended that the material be stored at temperatures between 41�F�60�F and in dry conditions. Maximum storage temperature should not exceed 80�F. Once a container has been opened, the material should be used as quickly as possible as the useful life of the material is greatly reduced. IPATHANE HYDROPHILIC GROUT should be removed from all application equipment immediately after use due to its high risk of moisture contamination. IPATHANE HYDROPHILIC GROUT should be used in well ventilated areas. Avoid eye and skin contact.

Limitations:

Low temperature will significantly affect viscosity. To minimize this effect, store product at normal room temperatures for a minimum of 24 hours prior to use. If site temperatures are extremely low, heat bands may be used on the pails during use to maintain the products temperature, lower viscosity and improve penetration. Do not exceed 80�F when warming.
