CrownCote Vapor Barrier
Product No. 303

A PRETREATMENT PENETRATING POLYMER BARRIER TO CONTROL VAPOR TRANSMISSION ON CONCRETE FLOORS AND SLABS

DESCRIPTION

  • CrownCote Vapor Barrier is a modified epoxy-penetrating sealer formulated to penetrate the cement paste portion of the concrete and fill pores within the concrete upper structure to stop vapor transmission.
  • The polymer is a two-component 100% solids, 100% reactive, ultra low viscosity, moisture-insensitive and will not shrink.
  • It has excellent adhesion to the aggregate and cement paste molecules.
  • Cures under dry and damp conditions.
  • Cured it is imperious to vapor transfer through the protection zone.

ADVANTAGES

  • Excellent Working Time
  • Cures and Adheres on Dry or Damp Concrete Surfaces
  • Applicable and Curable Down to 33°F (1°C)
  • Creates a Dense, Non-porous Barrier within the Concrete Mass Upper Surface
  • 100% Solids, No VOC’s
  • Ultra Low Viscosity
  • Very Safe to Use
  • Low Odor During Application
  • Cures Without Other Chemical Aid
  • USDA and FDA Compliance
  • Applied with Squeegee and Roller
  • Improves Strength Properties of Concrete

WHERE TO USE
Use on clean concrete surfaces that have vapor transmissions problems. Slabs-on-grade concrete floors

  • Concrete that is subjected to high moisture environments
  • Interior or exterior
  • Pretreatment before overlaying floors with polymer systems, tile or carpets

LIMITATIONS

  • DO NOT APPLY ON WET OR WATER SATURATED CONCRETE SURFACES
  • Do not apply when substrate temperature is below 33°F (1°C).
  • Do not thin with solvents or other materials, they will prevent proper cure.
  • Product No. 303 is a pretreatment material-Crown Polymers, LLC must approve the wear surface prior to installation to be covered under warranty.
