BETOLEVEL 600
POLYMER MODIFIED FINE-AGGREGATE CEMENT BASED FLOOR OVERLAY
DESCRIPTION
BETOLEVEL 600 is a polymer modified fine-aggregate ready to mix cementitious overlay designed for flooring operations. Base on excellent abrasion and mechanical resistance properties (approximately 50 MPa compressive strength). It is suitable for heavy duty industries. BETOLEVEL 600 has been formulated for easy application to achieve a smooth, flat surface without any shrinkage and cracking up to 10 mm thickness.
FIELD OF APPLICATION
- Reinstatement of damaged/old, new or existing concrete floors subject to foot traffic, industrial equipment, airport, petrochemical, power plant, forklift traffic or trolleys.
- Use as final wearing coarse overlay or may be coated with an appropriate epoxy floor coating.
- Residential, commercial and industrial application
- Light to medium industrial application
ADVANTAGES
- Excellent workability
- Controlled expansion and non-shrink
- Reinstating large areas in relative short time periods
- Rapid hardening
- Dimensionally stable
- Long lasting durable
- Good adhesion to most common substrates
- Can be applied directly onto prepared concrete surfaces
- Single component product, just add water
- Quick application
- Easy mixing
COVERAGE
For every 10 mm thickness 20.0 to 25.0 kg (depend on substrate conditions) of dry powder per square meter will be required.
SUBSTRATE PREPARATION
Ensure the concrete substrate is clean and free from oil, grease, sealers, curing compounds, paints, polymer coatings, dust or other foreign (bond breaking) matter. Excess bitumen, adhesive or laitance should be removed by light scrabbling or
mechanical captive shot blasting or grinding, followed by vacuuming to remove debris and dust. The substrates should be pre-saturated for preferably 6 hours with water before application.
MIXING
BETOLEVEL 600 requires approximately 2.5litres of water per 25 kg bag and is best mixed with a forced action, high shear stirrer, or by a heavy duty electric mixing drill at approx. 600 rpm. Add pre measured water to a clean mixing bucket. Gradually add BETOLEVEL 600 into the water whilst continuously mixing the contents of the bucket.
When the entire contents of the bag have been added to the water, mix for a further two minutes to produce a smooth homogenous consistency. Do NOT mix by hand. Do NOT add excess water. Discard any BETOLEVEL 600 that has hardened or stiffened in the mixing bucket. Further addition of water will NOT reconstitute a usable mixture.
APPLICATION
The mixed material is poured onto the prepared substrates and spread with a steel trowel and spreader to the required thickness in one operation. Alternatively the use of an electrical trowel will ensure a smooth even finish.
CURING
Start curing after initial setting of BETOLEVEL 600, It necessary to cure areas of BETOLEVEL 600 with humidified method for at least 24 hours.
Protect from direct sunlight or drying winds during cure.
Note: after curing, cutting operation for expansion joint be done.
