RSL Acrydur BC01

    BC01
    RSL10155

    A solvent free, medium viscosity Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) based slightly elasticized body coat used as trowelling mortar binder by adding fillers such as sand or coloured quartz. Different levels of fillers can be used to make either a trowel applied screed or a self-levelling flooring system, both suitable for heavy load impact. The self-levelling system can be scattered with further aggregate to build up a textured finish. Acrydur BC01 systems are then usually sealed with an Acrydur coloured or clear topcoat as required.

    • Recommended for use as a body coat screed or self-leveller for Acrydur flooring systems
    • Rapid curing, used as a binder for screeds or self-levellers
    • Very hard wearing, excellent bond to substrate, easy to apply

      • Industrial and Manufacturing
      • Retail and Commercial
      • Food and Beverage



    Surface Preparation


    New Concrete Floors: New concrete must be clean, sound, dry, fully cured and surface laitance removed by vacuum enclosed shot blasting or mechanical grinding, a minimum strength of 25N/mm² is required.

    Existing Concrete Floors: Remove all dirt, oil, grease, old paint or any other surface contaminants by vacuum enclosed shot blasting, scarifying or mechanical grinding. Fats, oils or greases must be removed by mechanical means and detergent washing and making sure all residue of detergent is washed and removed by rinsing with clean water. Local repairs should be carried out using Acrydur RM01 and Acrydur RM02.

    Existing Floors (previously coated): All previous coatings and loose floor paints must be removed by mechanical preparation as described in the above section and primed as specified. If the old resin flooring cannot be removed then please consult with our technical team for advice on intercoat adhesion and suitability, as it may not be compatible with the existing floor coating.

    Where Acrydur BC01 is applied to concrete surfaces, care must be taken to ensure that surface preparation is thorough but does not disfigure the surface.



    Priming/Application Conditions


    Substrates should be primed prior to the application of an Acrydur BC01 body coat. Acrydur PR02 is for priming substrates prior to the application of Acrydur flooring systems. Acrydur PR01 can also be used as a primer. Porous substrates may require double priming. The primer application should be lightly scattered with sand (approximately 0.3 – 0.8 mm in size) at an approximate rate of 0.3 kg/m2.

    Acrydur BC01 is supplied in pails or drums. Before mixing ideally precondition the Acrydur resin and the Peroxide as well as the fillers and quartz components to a temperature of approximately 15 °C to 20°C.

    The application temperature should be 0°C to 35°C throughout the application and the curing period.



    Mixing


    Prior to use, stir the Acrydur to obtain an even distribution of the paraffin contained in the product. With pourable mixes, the Peroxide is the last component to be added in the mix. For mortars, add the Peroxide prior to adding the aggregate. Pour the appropriate ratio of hardening powder into the container of resin (see table below). Mix until the Peroxide is completely dissolved.

    NB: The quantity of hardening powder is always related to the amount of resin

    Hardening powder must not be added to the reactive resin and resin/filler mix until immediately before application. In the case of pourable mixes, the hardener should be the last component added, while for mortars or very thixotropic resins the full amount of filler or thixotropic agent should be stirred in first. The hardening powder must always be stirred in and allowed to dissolve in the corresponding mixture or the pure resin. The stirring time will depend on the type and the condition of the mixing equipment used and on the temperature of the material.



    Application


    Acrydur BC01 should be spread coarsely to the desired thickness using a trowel or squeegee and then should be compressed and smoothed using a large smoothing trowel so that no pores and trowel marks remain in the floor.

    The application of the system requires consistent and even technique to ensure the prevention of puddles and good compaction of the mix and to avoid pores and air bubbles within the stated tolerance of fillers and resin and depending on the thickness of the application.

    In case of coatings and floors in areas between metal profiles and inlets, we recommend that elastic joints with the same decorative look being applied in the transition area. Otherwise, temperature stresses could lead to forming of small cracks at the contact zone.
