Rubberized Bitumen Coating

Nurcoat (Rubberized Bitumen Emulsion) is a thixotropic cold applied rubberized bitumen emulsion, single component dark brown liquid, which dries to provide a flexible, resilient coating.

Nurcoat (Rubberized Bitumen Emulsion) is used as a dampproof membrane behind retaining walls and as a damp-proof membrane for basement structures. RBE is suitable for protect all types of concrete and many adhesive applications Tanking and waterproofing below ground structures providing and impervious membrane as a highly effective vapour sealer and curing compound.

Nurcoat (Rubberized Bitumen Emulsion) combines the waterproofing benefits of bitumen with the elongation and crack bridging benefits of rubber latex. The result is a durable flexible membrane for all water proofing applications. Curing and waterproofing can be completed in one application. Mixguard RBE is a single component, solvent free material. Non-flammable and nontoxic, resistant to chloride and sulphate attacks.

Coverage / Consumption

Coverage rates vary on the density, Porosity and texture of the concrete to be treated. Typically, a coverage rate of 2-3m²/litre for two coats will give 300 microns DFT. Minimum recommended coverage is 2-4m²/litre.

Note: Drying time depends on the surface & atmosphere condition.

Compiliance Standard

ASTM D2939 & BS 8102

Shelf Life & Storage

Up to 12 months in manufacturer's sealed containers stored in a cool and dry place. Reseal the container after use and ensure product is stored as instructed on the label

Packing

Nurcoat is supplied in metallic containers of 20 litre Pails and 200 litre drums.

Application Instructions & Instructions for Use

Surface preparation

Surface must be clean and free from dirt, dust, rust or any other material which may impair adhesion. Porous surfaces such as concrete and fibre reinforced cement should be primed using Nurprime WB. Old concrete and steel must be structurally sound prior to application. Steel should be blasted and treated.

Foundation protection

Nurcoat can be applied directly to green concrete immediately after the shutters have been removed. Two coats should be applied at right angles ensuring complete coverage of the area. Clean sharp sand can be used to increase DFT.

Sandwich construction

Apply two coats of Nurcoat onto the smooth, clean concrete sub floor @ 1m² / litre / coat. Whilst the second coast is still tacky, blind with Clean sharp sand to give protection against foot traffic and provide a key subsequent screed. Ensure theta the membrane is taken up the walls to marry with the damp proof course and the dried film is not damaged. Lay the screeds to a minimum 50mm thickness and allow drying thoroughly before laying floor covering.

Surface treatment to existing floors

Apply a priming coat @ 7.5m² / litre by Nurprime WB, cold water. Allow to dry thoroughly. Apply two coats Nurcoat @ 1m² / litre /coat, taking each coat up to joint with existing DPC. Ensure the dried film is not punctured or damaged before floor covering is laid.

Note: Floor covering containing high amounts of solvent or plasticizer should not be laid over Nurcoat.

Method of application

Nurcoat can be applied by brush, roller or squeegee. A minimum of 2 coats should be applied.

Cleaning

NurCoat should be removed from tools, equipment and mixers with clean water prior to the initial set. However, once it has dried, it can only be removed with white spirit.
