CREATING TOMORROW’S SOLUTIONS CONSTRucTION I Europe I SELF-LEVELING compounds VINNAPAS ® 5014 F and VINNAPAS ® 7016 F: DISPERSIBLE POLYMER POWDERS for self-leveling compounds Self-leveling compounds are subject to complex requirements. They must create smooth, void-free surfaces. Application should be fast and easy, combining a long open time with fast curing. Additionally, excellent technical performance must be accompanied by a VOC level that permits the formulation of end products which meet EMICODE EC1PLUS regulations. VINNAPAS® F dispersible polymer powders help to meet these demands by adding functionality to self-leveling compounds while reducing the number of additives you need. General Benefits VINNAPAS® polymer powders, generally polymeric that improve essential features of self-leveling compounds: •Increased adhesion to different substrates Product Features Flow Support VINNAPAS® ••• 5014 F VINNAPAS® 7016 F ••• •Improved compressive and flexural strength •Better abrasion resistance •Increased tensile strength and deformation capability •Enhanced flow and self-leveling properties •Defoaming properties •Stabilization against bleeding and sedimentation Product Data VINNAPAS® 5014 F Flexibility Hard Minimum film4 °C forming temperature Polymer base VAc-E Better Surfaces With Fewer Ingredients VINNAPAS® F Class polymer powders, specifically, act as binder and superplasticizer. This feature is particularly advantageous for pumpable compounds, where machine application cuts mixing time to a minimum. The required rheology can be adjusted by choosing the right F Class polymer powder; this will simplify handling and logistics. 7016 F Hard 7 °C VAc-E-MMA Eco-Labeling By using VINNAPAS® F products, you will meet the requirements of European eco-labels such as Blue Angel, EMICODE® EC1PLUS, etc. Compliance with such labels will be determined by the dosage level. VINNAPAS® 5014 F and VINNAPAS® 7016 F can be Differentiated by their Rheological Behavior •Different products and processing methods for floorings require different rheological behavior •Superplasticizer works instantly to lower risk of failure due to water over-dosage •High effectiveness of superplasticizer is ensured by patented manufacturing process Defoaming Stabilization Rheology Pumpability ••• Use in gypsum based SLC • Recommended Dosage* 1 – 1.5% ••• • ••• •• •Shear-thinning behavior •Similar rheology to MSF •High pumping capacity due to low pressure in the hose •Dilatant behavior •Very good flow and self-healing properties •Especially suitable for hand-applied SLC •• ••• 2 – 3% * Dosage expressed in terms of total formulation. Higher polymer contents can be achieved by admixing VINNAPAS® L class powders and VINNAPAS® 5010 N VINNAPAS® is a registered trademark of Wacker Chemie AG. CREATING TOMORROW’S SOLUTIONS VINNAPAS® 5014 F: Ideal for Pumping VINNAPAS® 5014 F has a low kinematic viscosity, similar to that of MSF (melamine sulfonate formaldehyde-based superplasticizers), and is beneficial for machineapplied, pumpable self leveling compounds. Its shear thinning rheology reduces pressure in the hose during pump-application and therefore increases the pumping capacity. The superplasticizer works instantly to reduce the tendency to sedimentation and bleeding. Compared to formulations with melamine sulfonates, products with VINNAPAS® 5014 F fulfill EMICODE® EC1PLUS requirements. VINNAPAS® 7016 F: Ideal for Application by Hand VINNAPAS® 7016 F displays casein-like rheological behavior as well as excellent self-healing and surface properties. The dilatant rheology supports application by hand. It imparts very good flow properties and is recommended not only for cementitious self-leveling compounds but also for self-leveling compounds based on calcium sulfate, where VINNAPAS® 7016 F acts as an excellent binder with superplasticizing properties.
