FOAM-FLEX XP-1

Description

FOAM FLEX XP-1 is a MDI-based isocyanate which transforms into a semi-rigid polyurethane foam when in contact with water. This water-reactive grout is specially designed and formulated injection into leaking concrete, masonry or brickwork, to stop the flow of water. The material is solvent free, and therefore non-flammable and easy to apply.

The reaction time can be adjusted by adding FOAM-LYST (catalyst). By restraining the natural expansion created by this reaction, a strong closed cell semi-rigid foam is formed, providing a permanent barrier to the ingress of water.

FOAM FLEX XP-1 forms an excellent barrier against water seepage caused by hydroscopic pressure, has good chemical resistance and is non-toxic once cured.

 

Operation Procedure

FOAM FLEX XP-1 can be injected by motor driven or manual pump together with the required mechanical packers. Technical experience in operating equipment, and site assessment for suitability of application, may be necessary. It is recommended that pressurized grouting at the same position for two times to ensure no water leakage.


Advantages

  • Flexible and durable after cured (allow considerable movement).
  • Non-toxic
  • Provides a totally water resistant barrier.
  • Excellent bond strength.
  • Non hazardous when fully cured.
  • Suitable for wet and dry condition.
  • Resistant to biological attack.
  • Unaffected by salts or contaminants in water.
  • Solvent and TDI free.

Storage and Handling

Store in cool dry areas. Temperatures above 50 C may cause premature formation of insoluble solids. Good house keeping is essential in areas where chemical spillage is likely to occur. Partly used drums should be tightly sealed to prevent ingress of moisture. To increase the materials life expectancy, partially used drum should be filled with Nitrogen and sealed tightly to prevent moisture contamination.



Health and Safety Advice

Skin          :    Contact with skin may result in irritation.
Eyes          :    A mild to moderate eye irritant.
Inhalation :    Vapour may result in headaches, dizziness & possible nausea.

Wash with plenty of water immediately and consult a Physician in all cases.

Wear goggles, rubber glove, full clothing when handling raw materials.

MSDS shall be available upon request.
