DESCRIPTION


Corro-Dur 192 was formulated to provide safe and effective sealing and reinforcement of surfaces such as concrete exposed to contamination from road salts, gasoline, oil drips and similar materials. The unique Corro-Dur 192 formulation has excellent tolerance to the dampness left in concrete after preparation for coating by high pressure water jetting . The formulation is solvent-free to avoid the objectionable odor and explosion hazards of epoxy solvents. Absence of solvents also assures compliance with all present and proposed air pollution regulations. Corro-Dur 192 is non-blushing and can be applied and will cure underwater.


USES

SURFACE REINFORCEMENT

An ideal binder for making concrete repair mortar. A standard 2 gallons (7.5 liters) kit of Corro-Dur 192 will accept 2 gallons (7.5 liters) of sand filler to yield 4 gallons (15 liters) of a 'self leveling' filler or up to 3 gallons (11 liters) of sand filler to yield 5 gallons (18.75 liters) of a trowelable mortar.

REINFORCEMENT

Used extensively in glass reinforced epoxy systems especially for application such as underwater hull repair and custom GRP fabrications. The long potlife, predictable cure rate and total absence of surface 'blush' together with excellent physical and chemical resistance make Corro-Dur 192 ideal for applications exposed to harsh industrial or marine conditions. Because of the chemical curing process and relatively gentle exotherm, unlimited applications may be made at one time.

SEALER

When used as a sealer Corro-Dur 192 is designed to be absorbed into the concrete surface, very heavy applications will result in a glossy, slippery film which can be made skid resistant by broadcasting sand into it while still liquid..

SURFACE PREPARATION


Remove surface contamination by high pressure water jetting or similar methods with or without abrasive injection. Hand held power tools such as grinders or needle guns will give good results if applied conscientiously in small areas but will be inadequate in large areas. Conventional abrasive blasting using air/abrasive or centrifugal blasters are preferred methods of surface preparation in most cases where oily or greasy contamination is a problem.


APPLICATION


Mix CORRO-DUR 192 epoxy base (in the partly filled two gallon pail) with the CORRO-DUR 192 curing agent supplied in the partly filled one gallon can. Use a mechanical mixer if possible to ensure thorough mixing. The mixing ratio is 3/2 (base/curing agent) by volume. CORRO-DUR 192 does not require a 'sweat-in' an induction time and the mixed components should be used immediately.

Potlife is approximately 40 minutes at 77°F (27°C), small amounts of solvent may be added if the mixture begins to thicken noticeably towards the end of its working life. Apply in a thin film using a brush, roller, pad or squeegee. Overcoating with CORRO-DUR materials may be carried out before full curing of the CORRO-SEAL 192 if necessary since chemical curing will continue normally even when overcoated.

If using CORRO-DUR 192 as a mortar begin by thoroughly mixing the CORRO-DUR base and curing agent in a 5 gallon (19 liters) pail. Then gradually blend in the sand using a 'Jiffy' type mixer.


TEMPERATURE


Temperature exerts a considerable influence on the rate of hardening of chemically cured materials such as CORRO-DUR 192. In broad terms expect each 10°C, (18°F), rise or fall temperature to half or double dry times and pot lives.
