1 ISO COMPANY K POLYSEAL G TWO PART GUN GRADE POLYSULPHIDE SEALANT DESCRIPTION KPOLYSEAL is a two part gun grade joint sealant based on a liquid polysulphide when mixed together, cure to form a fairly stiff rubber like material. It forms a tough, elastic and flexible rubber like seal Accommodate continuous and pronounced cyclic movement, expansion and contraction. Excellent bonding adhesion to most common substrates, by use of recommended primers. Highly durable, remains unaffected by UV rays, ozone and weathering conditions. High resistance to ageing influence, water, saltwater, acids, 10% alkalis, vegetable, lubricate coating oils and fuels. Resistance to bio degradation prevents the growth of fungus and microorganism, slip resistance. Conforming to BS USES It is to be used for the highest performance in sealing expansion joints where large movements is anticipated in concrete construction and for joints between diverse construction materials. It can be used in floor joints and joints in water retaining structures Can be used heavily trafficked floor joints or joints requiring high degree of chemical resistance. Suitable for sealing expansion and construction joints in subways, basements, buildings, walls and brickwork joints etc. It can be used sealing of joints in water retaining structures as water tanks, reservoirs, canals, dams, aqua duct, culverts and water treatment plants. Sealing of joints in traffic areas such as Bridges, roads, parking areas etc. ADVANTAGES * Excellent adhesion to most surfaces including concrete, glass, aluminum and stainless steel. Excellent weathering characteristics with resistance to rain, snow, heat & ultraviolet light Accommodates continuous and pronounced cyclic movement. High resistance to ageing influences, physical damage and climatic extreme It is quick curing with low shrinkage Resistance to petrol, diesel, jet fuel and most other common solvents & also unaffected by mild acids and alkalis. APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS MIXING : Mix Hardener in to the Base container, it is preferable to use a slow electric mixer with suitable stirrer with the speed of less than 300 RPM. Ensure thoroughly mixing till a uniform color (GREY) is obtained.

2 APPLICATION : Prior to the application of the sealant, all surface must be cleaned and dried and primed with KPOLYSEAL PRIMER. After the primer is applied, it has to be relatively dry before a sealant can be applied. Deep joints should be back filled with a non retting backup material to which the sealant does not adhere eg. Closed cell polyurethane foam, which should be tampered into the joint to the required depth. JOINT SIZE : POLYSEAL may be applied to joints between 5 to 50mm wide. Joint for subjected to cyclic movements should be designed for an optimum width/depth ratio of 2 :1. Minimum joint depths are : 5 mm for metals, glass and other non-porous surface. 10 mm for all Porous surfaces like brick and concrete. 20 mm for trafficked joints and those subject to hydraulic pressures. DOSAGE The optimum dosage is best determined by site trials. The dosage rate is 500 ml to 1 ltr. per 50 kg of cement. PROPERTIES * Physical App. (Mixed BASE + HARDENER) : Grey. * POT LIFE : 2 to 3 hours. * Specific Gravity : 1.6 kg / ltr. * Hardness : 16 to 22 shore A. * FULL CURE : 3 to 4 days. PACKING 1 kg. and 5 kg. SHELF LIFE 12 months storage life when stored in original unopened container at between 5 ºC to 45 ºC in a dry and shaded place. HEALTH & STORAGE KPOLYSEAL is non-hazardous. It should not be swallowed or allowed to come into contact with skin or eyes. Suitable protective goggles and gloves should be worn. In the case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice. If swallowed, seek medical attention immediately, do not induce vomiting. NOTE All information is given in good faith on the results gained from experience and tests. However, all recommendations or suggestions are made without guarantee since we don't have any control on site conditions and its uses.

3 K POLYSEAL STD TWO PART CRACK FILLING POLYSULPHIDE SEALANT DESCRIPTION KPOLYSEAL STD is a two-part crack filling compound based onliquid polysulphide polymer. It supplies in 1 kg & 5 kg. tins containing a Base component and Hardner (curing agent) in the correct proportion which, when mixed together, cure to form a fairly stiff rubber like material. It is chemically resistantto water, oils, solvents etc. Excellent adhesion to most of the surfaces including concrete, glass, alluminium and stainless steel. ADVANTAGES Provides excellent flexible bond with the most of the surfaces. Have an excellent bond with the most surfaces. Economical. Excellent water proofing characteristics. Easy to use. It is quick curing with low shrinkage. Accommodates continuous and pronounced cyclic movement. Excellent resistance to physical damage & climatic extremes. Excellent adhesion to most common substrates. Resistant to petrol, diesel, jet fuel and most other common solvents and also un effected by mild acids and alkalis. PROPERTIES * Physical App. (Mixed BASE + HARDENER) : Grey. * POT LIFE : 2 to 3 hours. * Specific Gravity : 1.7 kg / ltr. * Hardness : 16 to 22 shore A. * FULL CURE : 3 to 4 days. PACKING 1 kg. and 5 kg.

5 ISO COMPANY K POLYSEAL PR POURABLE GRADE TWO PART POLYSULPHIDE SEALANT PRODUCT KPOLYSEAL PR is a pourable two part polysulphide sealant DESCRIPTION Polysulphide Sealant KPOLYSEAL PR is a two part, pourable, self leveling, Polysulphide based joint sealing compound consisting of base compound containing a liquid Polysulphide polymer and a second part, being an accelerator containing a curing agent. After mixing, the compound cures to form a tough, rubber like material with excellent flexibility and outstanding resistance to weathering water, salts, oils, mild alkalis etc. Polysulphide Sealant KPOLYSEAL PR due to its pouring consistency is suitable for sealing horizontal joints, Polysulphide Sealant KPOLYSEAL PR has excellent adhesion to most surfaces including concrete, wood, glass, aluminum and stainless steel,. For all porous surfaces like concrete wood, KPOLYSEAL PRRIMER is necessary white primer is necessary for non-porous surfaces like metals and glass. BENEFITS Suitable for sealing expansion and construction joints in subways, basements, building, walls and brickwork joints etc. Excellent weathering characteristics with resistance to rain, snow, heat & ultraviolet light It gets cured quickly curing with low shrinkage Accommodates continuous and pronounced cyclic movement Excellent adhesion to most common substrates High resistance to ageing influences, physical damage and climatic extremes Resistance to petrol, diesel, jet fuel and most other common solvents & also unaffected by mild acids and alkalies. Easy to apply. JOINT SIZE Polysulphide Sealant KPOLYSEAL PR may be applied to joints between 5 and 50mm. Wide. Minimum 5mm. Depth is recommended for metals, glass and other smooth surfaces while minimum 10mm. Depth is recommended for concrete and brickwork surfaces. Where resistance to external pressure is required, e.g. joints in floors and hydraulic structures, the use of a greater depth is recommended. Ideally joints subject to regular movement should be designed with a width/depth ratio of 2:1.

Flamability Burns but does not readily ignite. APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS Prior to the application of the sealant, all joint surfaces should be thoroughly cleaned and dried and primed with 'KPOLYSEAL PRRIMER'. Loose particles, dirt, dust, protective liquor, oil and grease should be removed by vigorous brushing with a wire brush and by means of suitable cleaners e.g. KEROSENE. After the primer is applied, it has to be relatively dry before a sealant can be applied. Deep joints should be back filled with a non retting backup material to which the sealant does not adhere eg. Closed cell polyurethane foam,which should be tampered into the joint to the required depth. MIXING KPOLYSEAL PR two part sealant is supplied as, the base in a pack and hardner (curing agent) in tin, ready for mixing. In order to mix both the compounds thoroughly it is preferable to use a slow speed electric mixer with suitable blades or paddles with the speed less than 300 RPM. Ensure thorough mixing till a uniform colour is obtained. Failure of the sealant will often occur if it is not completely and thoroughly mixed. TOOLING & FINISHING To obtain a smooth surface, the sealant has to be tooled by drawing a flat tool, like a stainless steel spatula, over its surface. After sealing, the tools and equipments must be cleaned with KEROSENE. SHELF LIFE 12 months when stored in unopened original containers, away from direct sunlight. HEALTH & SAFETY KPOLYSEAL PRRIMER is highly inflammable liquid, must be stored away from heat. The curing agent contains a heavy metal oxide, contact with the skin should be avoided. Hands should always be washed thoroughly before eating or smoking.
