Technical Overview

Megapoxy P1 is formulated with DGEBA epoxy resin and carbonate-free filler, providing exceptional strength and durability. Its high compressive strength (80 MPa) and tensile bond strength to steel (19 MPa) demonstrate its robust performance. The 60-minute work time at 25°C allows for precise application, while the varying cure times accommodate different project schedules.

Chemical Properties: DGEBA epoxy resin and carbonate-free filler, providing a strong, durable, and chemically resistant bond.

Application Temperature Range: Minimum application temperature of 10°C (50°F), ensuring reliable curing in various conditions. Maximum operating temperature of 80°C (176°F).

Application Information

  • Required Tools: Mixing containers, spatulas, trowels, and appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).
  • Trade-Specific Tips: Ensure thorough mixing for optimal performance. Prepare surfaces by grit blasting or grinding for maximum adhesion. Apply a minimum 3mm layer for steel protection.
  • Common Issues and Solutions: Inaccurate mixing can lead to poor curing. Always use a 1:1 ratio and mix thoroughly. Surface contamination reduces adhesion; ensure surfaces are clean and prepared.

Storage and Shelf Life

  • Storage Requirements: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  • Shelf Life Information: Refer to the product packaging for specific shelf life information.
  • Temperature Considerations: Flash point above 200°C (392°F) ensures safe handling and storage.

Frequently Asked Questions About Megapoxy P1

Q: How do I prepare concrete for Megapoxy P1 application?

A: Ensure concrete is free from grease and oil. Remove laitance by mechanical abrasion (grit blasting, grinding) or acid etching. Allow to dry thoroughly for maximum adhesion.

Q: What is the mixing ratio for Megapoxy P1?

A: The mixing ratio is a simple 1:1 by volume. Mix Part A and Part B thoroughly until a uniform dark grey color is achieved.

Q: Can Megapoxy P1 be used in potable water applications?

A: Yes, Megapoxy P1 is Nil VOC and complies with AS/NZS 4020:2018, making it safe for use in contact with drinking water.

Q: What is the cure time for Megapoxy P1?

A: Cure time varies depending on temperature: 48 hours at 15°C, 24 hours at 25°C, and 12 hours at 35°C. Full cure is achieved in 4 days at 25°C.

Q: How do I protect steel with Megapoxy P1?

A: Apply a minimum 3mm layer of Megapoxy P1 to grit-blasted steel. This provides protection equivalent to approximately 50mm of concrete cover.

Q: What safety precautions should I take when using Megapoxy P1?

A: Use proper PPE, including rubber gloves. Ensure thorough mixing. Refer to the Safety Data Sheet for detailed safety information and proper industrial hygiene.

Megapoxy P1 limitations:

  • Requires proper surface preparation for optimal adhesion.
  • Inaccurate mixing ratios can lead to poor curing and reduced performance.
  • Bonding to coated surfaces will give inferior bond strengths compared to bonding directly to a prepared substrate.

Safety precautions when using Megapoxy P1:

  • Personal Protective Equipment: Use rubber gloves, eye protection, and appropriate respiratory protection in poorly ventilated areas.
  • Ventilation: Ensure adequate ventilation during mixing and application.
  • Handling: Avoid skin and eye contact. Wash hands thoroughly after use.
  • Refer to the Safety Data Sheet for detailed safety information.

Megapoxy P1 can be used on the following substrates:

  • Concrete: Ensure surface is clean and properly prepared.
  • Steel: Grit blast to a bright metal finish for optimal adhesion.
  • Natural Stone: Clean and dry surfaces for strong bonding.
  • Bricks and Ceramics: Remove any loose particles or coatings.
  • Compressed Cement Sheet: Ensure surfaces are free of dust and debris.
  • Fibreglass articles: clean and abrade surfaces.
