2.4 m²/L (106 ft²/gal) @ 15 mils
Durex Epotel Moisture Block 100 is a two-component, 100% Solids Epoxy, Class 1 Vapour Diffusion Retarder formulated to block hydrostatic pressure by suppressing moisture vapour from transmitting through concrete substrates. Durex Epotel Moisture Block prevents the penetration of moisture from within or beneath the concrete slab to penetrate through the surface. It is designed to protect subsequent impermeable floor coverings/coatings from delaminating. It can be applied on freshly poured concrete slabs after 7 days.
- Class 1 Vapour Diffusion Retarder
- Very low permeance; Less than 0.1 perms
- Withstands up to 25 lbs of moisture vapour emission (ASTM F1869)
- Suppresses moisture from penetrating through the slab
- Resists high alkalinity (pH 14)
- Speeds up construction time
- Virtually odourless and solvent free
- Excellent adhesion to damp concrete (500psi)
- May be installed on floors with high relative humidity (100%)
Durex Epotel Moisture Block 100 is used as a first coat penetrating primer over freshly poured or existing concrete slabs to control moisture by preventing hydrostatic pressure from penetrating through the coating. It is used as a moisture blocking coating under a variety of impermeable floor coverings to prevent blistering and delamination. It is to be used under impermeable flooring systems such as traffic bearing waterproofing coatings, 100% solids epoxy coatings, vinyl tiles and sheeting, rubber-backed carpet and wood floors.
