Sikafloor-01 priemer | MCT CHEMICALS | SIKA PAKISTAN

DESCRIPTION
A low-emission, versatile dispersion primer used before applying leveling compounds.

USES
Sikafloor®-01 Primer is ideal for pre-treating floors when diluted as recommended. It is for interior use only and serves as a primer to reduce absorbency, enhance adhesion to smooth, stable surfaces, and protect the substrate from moisture from cement-based leveling compounds or tile adhesives.

CHARACTERISTICS / ADVANTAGES

• Reduces absorbency
• Enhances adhesion on smooth, solid substrates
• Protects substrates from moisture in leveling compounds
• Designed for interior applications
• Low consumption, high coverage
• Suitable for use on underfloor heating systems
• Quick drying time
• Compatible with many substrates
• Can be sprayed for easy application
• Can be diluted with water
• Ready to use
• Provides grip enhancement

SUSTAINABILITY

• EMICODE EC 1PLUS: very low emission
• EPD according to ISO 14025 and EN 15804
• Solvent-free as per TRGS 610

PRODUCT INFORMATION

• Chemical Base: Synthetic dispersion
• Packaging: 10 kg plastic can
• Appearance/Colour: Blue
• Shelf Life: 12 months from the production date (if unopened)
• Storage Conditions: Store in a cool, dry, frost-free location. Once opened, reseal immediately and use as soon as possible. Do not store below +5°C. Use material mixed with water within a week.
• Density: 1.0 kg/L

APPLICATION INFORMATION

• Substrates:
  • Concrete
  • Cement and rapid cement screeds
  • Calcium sulfate-based screeds
  • Old substrates with old water-resistant adhesive residues (mostly removed)
  • Dry screeds
  • Wooden OSB and chipboard floors
  • Mastic asphalt screeds IC 10 and IC 15 (EN 13 813)
• Mixing Ratio:
  • For normal absorbent substrates (cementitious screeds, rapid cement screeds, or concrete): 1 kg Sikafloor®-01 Primer : 3 L water
  • For calcium sulfate-based substrates: 1 kg Sikafloor®-01 Primer : 1 L water
  • For non-absorbent or low-absorbent smooth, stable substrates (ceramic tiles, old adhesive residues, OSB or chipboard, mastic asphalt screeds IC 10 and IC 15): Apply undiluted
• Consumption: ~70 g/m² (dependent on substrate absorbency, applicator device, and mixing ratio)
• Ambient Air Temperature: +5°C min. / +30°C max.
• Substrate Temperature: +5°C min. / +30°C max.

Waiting Time / Overcoating
Before applying cementitious self-leveling compounds or tile adhesives, wait the following times:

• Normal absorbent substrates (Cementitious): ~10 minutes
• Calcium sulfate-based substrates (if using calcium sulfate-based leveling compounds): ~10 minutes
• Calcium sulfate-based substrates (if using cement-based leveling compounds): ~24 hours
• Non-absorbent or low-absorbent substrates (OSB, chipboards): ~2 hours
• Other non-absorbent or low-absorbent substrates (ceramic tiles, old adhesive residues, mastic asphalt screeds IC 10 and IC 15): ~12 hours

Note: Times are approximate and may vary based on environmental conditions. Refer to the product data sheets of leveling compounds and tile adhesives for specific instructions.
