* ÉMISSION DANS L’AIR INTÉRIEUR Information sur le niveau d’émission de substances volatiles dans l’air intérieur, présentant un risque de toxicité par inhalation, sur une échelle de classe allant de A+ (très faibles émissions) à C (fortes émissions). INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE Preparation of the substrate All substrates must be level, cured, undamaged, compact, rigid, resistant, dry and free from any debonding agents and from damp rising. It is good practice to dampen highly absorbent concrete substrates or apply a coat of Primer A Eco.
Preparation
Mixing water (EN 12004-2): Mixing water on-site
-Grey - ≈ 30% – 32% by weight For low thickness laying and full On walls, for high and low thickness (≈ 7.5 – 8 ℓ / 1 bag) wettability: laying: -White - Shock ≈ 25,5% – 28,5% by weight -Grey - ≈ 8 ℓ / 1 bag -Grey - ≈ 7 ℓ / 1 bag (≈ 6.4 – 7.1 ℓ / 1 bag) -White - Shock ≈ 8 ℓ / 1 bag -White - Shock ≈ 6.5 ℓ / 1 bag
The amount of water to be added, indicated on the packaging, is an approximate guide. It is possible to obtain mixtures with consistency of variable thixotropy according to the application to be made.
Application To guarantee structural adhesion it is necessary to apply a layer of adhesive sufficient to cover the entire back of the coating material. Large, rectangular sizes with sides > 60 cm and low thickness sheets may require adhesive to be applied directly to the back of the material. Check samples to make sure the adhesive has been transferred to the back of the material. Create elastic expansion joints: - ≈ 10 m2 in external applications, - ≈ 25 m2 in internal applications, - every 8 metres in long, narrow applications. Respect all structural, fractionizing and perimeter joints present in the substrates.
SPECIAL NOTES Pre-treatment of special substrates Timber (internal use only) thickness ≥ 25 mm: Keragrip Eco Metal (internal use only): Keragrip Eco Asphalt screed (internal use only): Primer A Eco Gypsum and anhydrite (internal use only): Primer A Eco PVC (internal use only): Keragrip Eco As treating special substrates is difficult to classify in a standard manner, it is always advisable to contact Kerakoll Global Service and/ or request a site inspection by a GreenBuilding Consultant. In any case it is essential to carefully read the technical data sheet on how to use the indicated primers properly.
Materials and special substrates
Marble–natural stones and Recomposed materials: materials that are subject to deformation or staining due to water absorption require a quick-setting or reactive adhesive. Marble and natural stone in general may have characteristics that vary even with reference to materials of the same chemical and physical nature. For this reason it is essential you consult Kerakoll Global Service to request specific indications or to carry out a test on a sample of the material. In the absence of specific indications from the manufacturer, natural stone slabs with reinforcement layers, in the form of resin coating, polymer mesh, matting, etc. or treatments (for example damp courses, etc.) applied on the laying surface must be tested in advance to ensure they are compatible with the adhesive. Check for the presence of any really consistent traces of rock dust created during cutting, and remove them if found. Waterproofing products: adherent and floating polymer sheets, liquid bitumen and tar-based sheets or membranes require application of a laying screed on top.
Special applications Façades: the substrate should guarantee a cohesive tensile strength of ≥ 1.0 N/mm². The need to call for suitable mechanical safety anchoring must be evaluated by the designer for coverings with > 30 cm side. For coverings with > 60 cm, add to the mixing water a percentage of Top Latex Eco to assess the function of the thermo-dynamic strain provided by the structure. Always apply a layer of adhesive directly on the back of the material (per India tile/stone). Biogel® No Limits® Code: P1025 2020/06 - GCC/EN
