Material Description

Cafco BONDSEAL® is a single pack, polyvinyl acetate copolymer, used as an adhesive/sealer coat.

Cafco BONDSEAL® is mixed with water and applied to porous or no compatible surfaces to either seal or create a surface barrier prior to application of some Promat spray applied materials.

A wide range of surfaces in the construction, hydrocarbon and tunnel industries benefit from Cafco BONDSEAL®.

Styrene acrylic copolymer

Typical Mechanical Properties

Properties and performance
Theoretical coverage
When used as an adhesive, add 3 parts Cafco BONDSEAL® to 1 part water. 7-11m²/litre as mixed.
When used as a sealer, add 1 part Cafco BONDSEAL® to 3 parts water. 3.7m²/litre as mixed.
Practical coverage is dependent on surface condition, profile, application method and technique.
Number of coats
Normally one but additional coats may be applied as required
Cure By air drying
Drying time
2 to 6 hours. The drying time will vary with ambient conditions and substrate, but high humidity, low temperature and low air change will inhibit and slow cure time significantly.
Combustibility Non combustible when fully cured
pH value 9.6 at 25ºC

Preparation
Typical substrates
Primed steel and concrete. Please contact Promat for other compatible priming systems.
Substrate preparation
The substrate shall be clean, dry and free from visible moisture (including condensation), dust, loose mill scale, loose rust, loose paint and mould, oil and any other condition preventing good adhesion.

Application
Methods
When used as an adhesive, add 1 volume of clean water to 3 volumes of Cafco BONDSEAL®.
When used as a sealer, add 3 volumes of clean water to 1 volume of Cafco BONDSEAL®.
Apply to the surface using an industrial type airless spray, brush or short pile roller.
Where Cafco BONDSEAL® is used as an adhesive, commence application of the chosen spray applied coating whilst the surface is still tacky.
Limitations
Cafco BONDSEAL® may be applied when the substrate and air temperatures are at least 2ºC and rising. Maximum substrate and air temperature is 45ºC.
Substrate temperature should be at least 2ºC above dew point temperature.

Handling
Packaging 20 litre and 60 litre drums.
Storage
