DESCRIPTION
PERMATEC 4000 HT, Industrial Floor Coatings are 100% solids epoxy floor topping designed
for high temperature applications commonly found in many
manufacturing processes. PERMATEC 4000 HT is designed to
withstand constant temperatures to 212oF
(100oC) and
intermittent exposures to 250oF
(122oC). The PERMATEC 4000 HT system consists of a two component resin binder and graded
aggregate. It is applied with a trowel or screed rake at 1/8 -
1/4 inches (125-250 mils) in a one coat application including a
silica broadcast. There is no need for a primer or sealer coat.
An optional glaze coat may be used to improve the appearance and
cleanability.
Please refer to the PERMATEC 4000
technical data sheet for chemical resistance recommendations.
Where chemical exposures over 150oF are anticipated, contact
ChemProof Polymers for specific recommendations.
The vertical formulation of
PERMATEC 4000 HT is trowel applied at 1/8 inches (125 mils).
FUNCTION
The primary use of PERMATEC 4000 HT is as a high strength floor
topping for industrial service where elevated temperatures and
severe mechanical abuse or chemical exposure are anticipated.
FEATURES
PERMATEC 4000 HT is a 100% solids system and allows for a fast
application where good chemical and wear resistance are
required. PERMATEC 4000 HT can be installed over most sound floors
including old or new concrete and most types of repair mortars.
At varying thicknesses up to 1/4 inches, the PERMATEC 4000 HT system provides long term chemical resistance for splash and
spill, or immersion in many chemicals. As with all PERMATEC systems,
PERMATEC 4000 HT provides excellent physical protection even in the
harshest industrial settings. The physical properties of
PERMATEC 4000 HT are many times those of standard concrete.
OTHER FEATURES
INCLUDE:
- Rapid cure resulting in
minimal "downtime"
- 100% non-porous
- Virtually odor-free
- Non-skid safety finish
MIXING
& APPLICATION
For mixing and application information, please refer to the
PERMATEC Heavy Duty Application Guidelines.
SAFETY
PERMATEC 4000 HT contains blended Epoxies as the resin and blended
Amines as the hardener. Protective clothing and gloves are
recommended to prevent sensitization to these materials. In case
of ingestion or eye contact, contact a physician immediately.
MSDS are available for this product upon request.
WARRANTY
For product warranty see ChemProof Polymers, Inc.
"Standard Limited Warranty." If one is not included
with this literature contact your local distributor or ChemProof
Polymers, Inc. for a copy.
STORAGE
& SHELF LIFE
PERMATEC 4000 HT should be stored at 65-90oF out of direct
sunlight. All containers should remain unopened until ready for
use. If stored as set out above, PERMATEC 4000 HT has a minimum
shelf life of one year.

PACKAGING
& COVERAGE
PERMATEC 4000 HT is
available in 20, 100, and 1000 square foot units based
on 1/4 inch applications. Each unit consists of
pre-measured components, Part A (Resin) and Part B
(Hardener). Graded aggregates are available or may be
sourced locally.
Application thickness may
vary from 1/8 to 1/4 inches, depending on the expected
service conditions. Factors to consider are #1) length of
chemical exposure (e.g., immersion vs. splash/spill)
and; #2) mechanical abuses (e.g., tow traffic, loaded
trucks vs. cart and foot traffic, etc.)
CURE
TIME
The cure time of PERMATEC 4000 HT and other resinous
systems are very dependent upon the temperature of the
substrate. The ambient temperature may not be the same
as the substrate temperature. For example during winter,
concrete may be colder than the surrounding ambient
temperature. As temperatures during the day may
increase, large masses of concrete will be much slower
to react. During summer days direct sunlight will
increase the concrete temperature over that of ambient
air. The substrate temperature should be monitored and
remain at or above 65'o F.

WHERE
PERMATEC 4000 HT SHOULD NOT BE INSTALLED
PERMATEC 4000 HT should not be applied over substrates:
- subject to hydrostatic
pressure
- which are unsound
- which are contaminated and
cannot be cleaned
- at temperatures below 65oF
(consult ChemProof Polymers, Inc.)
- which are wet during
application
