EPOMORTAR FC is a two component solvent free epoxy mortar for filling pin holes,cracks and repairing irregularities of concrete. EPOMORTAR FC system has high bonding strength with concrete and steel structures. EPOMORTAR FC is an ideal material for repairing and bedding in a single operation with one material. It is used wherever a high degree of compressive strength, chemical resistance and excellent mechanical properties are required. This product is two pack reactive performance coatings for specific end such as floors under subcategory 10of DM. VOC value for this product is less than 500g/l as per DM specs.

Typical applications include the following:

  • Cracks of concrete surface up to 3 mm width.
  • Bedding Anchors.
  • Floor repairing.
  • Industrial kitchens and catering facilities.
  • Electrical substations and plant rooms.
  • Swimming pools and leisure facilities.
  • Heavy duty workshops, garages and service facilities.
  • Smooth finish.
  • Easy-on application.
  • High ultimate compressive strength.
  • Excellent chemical resistance.
  • Impermeable when immersed in water.
  • Primeless.
  • Non-toxic.
  • Excellent adhesion.
  • Suitable for vertical and horizontal applications
  • for interior and exterior locations.
  • Available in a range of attractive colors.
  • Low VOC.

The surface should be dry (moisture < 5%) and any dust should be removed by industrial vacuum. In order to repair damaged area, cracks and honeycombs, laitance, dust and contaminants should be removed.
Prior to application, EPOMORTAR FC system should be stored under cover and protected from extremes of temperatures which may cause inconsistent workability and cure times for the mixed material. Ideally, at least 24 hours before mixing, EPOMORTAR FC system should be maintained at approximately 25°C. During application in cold conditions, correct conditioning can help, but application should be halted if the ambient temperature is likely to fall below 10°C. The substrate or base slab is likely to be considerably colder than the surrounding air temperature. Pot life of the mixed material will be affected by ambient temperature. New concrete floors
should be at least 28 days and have a moisture content of less than 5%. Excessive laitance should be removed by mechanical method. Dust and other debris should be removed by vacuum cleaning.
Old concrete floors damaged areas or surface irregularities should be repaired by using EPOMORTAR FC two component fast curing epoxy mortar (Refer to TDS). Steel surface should be grit blasted then clean by solvent and kept to dry.Epoxy Screeds high spots or trowel marks should be rubbed down and remove dust and debris by vacuum cleaning then repair it by using EPOSCREED 10 three component epoxy screed (Refer to TDS.)

Part A (Grey) and part B (Off white) should be mixed together (mix ratio 1:1 by volume) in a suitable container until uniform color is obtained.
Use of heavy duty slow speed power drill with a jiffy mixing blade if there is separation on part (B). Mix the two components by using scraper or steel spatula.

Apply EPOMORTAR FC on the bed and repaired areas with a spatula, scraper or palette knife above the existing finished level.
Allow EPOMORTAR FC to dry to touch for approximately 4 – 6 hours depending on ambient temperature. Sand down the dried EPOMORTAR FC to achieve a flush overall surface.
CURING
Good curing is essential for resin based materials to ensure specified performance.Installation using EPOMORTAR FC systems can be opened to foot traffic after approximately 24 hours at 25 0C. Complete cure is achieved after 72 hours at 25 0C.
COVERAGE
Dependence on the irregularity of substrate.
CLEANING
Tools and equipment can be cleaned immediately by using THINNERCOAT 10
organic solvent.
