TYPICAL PHYSICAL PROPERTIES:

CURED CHEMICAL RESISTANCE

Resistant to mild mineral acids, alkalis, detergents, solvents, hydraulic fluids, lubricating oils, salts, etc.

INSTALLATION

Application by trowel, putty knife, squeegee or caulking equipment.  Proper surface preparation such as sand-blasting, grinding, wire brushing or other suitable means as required is essential for proper adhesive or caulking performance.  Surfaces to receive adhesive or caulking must be structurally sound, dry, clean, free of dirt, water, loose particles, oil, grease, asphalt, tar, paint, wax, rust, waterproofing, curing and parting compounds, membrane materials, or any other contaminants which might prevent satisfactory bond and epoxy cure.  Thorough mixing of Epcon 850 using mechanical Jiffy mixer whenever possible, is essential for satisfactory performance.  Although it is of a paste consistency, Epocon 850 blends readily and is quite workable in its mixed state.  Always pay strict attention to ambient, and surface temperature of repair areas.  Selection of a Type "II" cold weather Epocon 850 may be dictated.

CLEAN UP

Use aromatic solvents such as Toluene, Xylene or MEK with uncured material only
