September 2011 Polycoat ProductsPOLYCOATPRODUCTSA Division of American Polymers Corp.POLYEURO® 5502Two Component AromaticPolyurea Protective CoatingDESCRIPTIONPolyeuro® 5502 is a fast setting, rapid curing, 100% solids,flexible, aromatic, two component spray polyurea that can beapplied to suitably prepared concrete and metal surfaces. Itsextremely fast gel time makes it suitable for applicationsdown to -20°F. It may be applied in single or multipleapplications without appreciable sagging and is relativelyinsensitive to moisture and temperature allowing applicationin most temperatures. Polyeuro® 5502 offers a tack free timeof less than sixty seconds and exhibits 450% elongationupon curing with 50 Shore D hardness.FEATURES?Zero VOC (100% Solids) ?Seamless?Excellent Thermal Stability ?Odorless?Low Temperature Flexibility ?Meets USDA Criteria?Good Chemical Resistance?Coats Carbon or Mild Steel Metals without Primer?Installed With or Without Reinforcement in Transitional AreasTYPICAL USES?Airports ?Power Plants?Refineries ?Structural Steel?Fertilizer Plants ?Warehouse Floors?Mining Operations ?Cold Storage Facilities?Food Processing Plants ?Landfill Containment?Marine Environments ?Paper and Pulp Mills?Secondary Containment ?Parking Garage Decks?Walkways and Balconies?Water and Waste Water Treatment?Industrial and Manufacturing FacilitiesCOLORSClear/Neutral.

User shouldperform their own independent testing as properties are approximate.)SURFACE PREPARATIONIn general, coating performance and adhesion are directlyproportional to surface preparation. Most failures in theperformance of surface coatings can be attributed to poorsurface preparation. Polyurea coatings rely on the structuralstrength of the substrate to which they are applied. All sur-faces must be free of dust, dirt, oil, grease, rust, corrosion andother contaminants. When coating substrates previouslyused, it is important to consider the possibility of substrateabsorption, which may affect the adhesion of the coatingsystem, regardless of the surface preparation. Polycoatrecognizes the potential for unique substrates from oneproject to another.

September 2011 Polycoat ProductsNew and Old Concrete:Refer to SSPC-SP13/NACE 6, or ICRI 03732: CSP 3-5. New concretemust be cured for 28 days prior to product application. Surface mustbe clean, dry, sound and offer sufficient profile for product adhesion.Remove all dust, dirt, oil, form release agents, curing compounds,salts, efflorescence, laitance and other foreign matter by shotblastingand/or suitable chemical means, in accordance with local chemicalregulations. Rinse thoroughly, to achieve a pH between 8.0 and 11.0.Allow to dry completely. If old concrete has a surface that hasdeteriorated to an unacceptably rough surface, Polycoat ProductsPC-260 or a mixture of Polyprime 21 and sand should be used as arepair agent for cracks, spalls, bug holes and voids. Upon full cureof the repair agent, prime the entire surface intended for coating.Concrete Surface Preparation Reference:ASTM D4258 - Standard practice for cleaning concreteASTM D4259 - Standard practice for abrading concreteASTM D4260 - Standard practice for etching concreteASTM F1869 - Standard test method for measuring moisture vaporemission rate of concreteICRI 03732 - Concrete surface preparationWood:All wood should be clean, dry and free of any knots, splinters, oil,grease or other contaminants. Splintered or rough areas should besanded. Knots should be repaired using Polycoat Products PC-260with sand. Upon full cure of the repair agent, prime the entire surfaceintended for coating.Steel (Atmospheric and Immersion Exposure):Remove all oil, grease, weld spatters and round off any sharp edgesfrom surface. Minimum surface preparation is Near White Metal BlastCleaning per SSPC-SP10/NACE 2. Optimum surface profile is 2-3 mils.Prime and shoot Polyeuro® on to any bare metal the same day as itis cleaned to minimize any potential flash rusting.Aluminum:Aluminum should be blasted with aluminum oxide or sand, and notwith steel or metal grit. Excessive blasting may result in a warpedor deformed surface. After blasting, wash aluminum with a commer-cially available aluminum cleaner. Allow to dry, then prime.Brass and Copper:Brass and copper should be blasted with sand, and not with steelor metal grit. Remove all dust and grease prior to applying primer.Galvanized Surfaces:Clean and degrease any contaminated surfaces before priming. Donot blast galvanized surfaces with an abrasive grit. An adhesion testis recommended prior to starting the project.Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic:The gel coat should be lightly blasted or sanded with 80 gritsandpaper and cleaned.Plastic Foams:Enhanced adhesion is obtained when the foam is mechanicallyabraded. When coating polystyrene, do not use a solvent-basedprimer.Textiles, Canvas, Fabrics:Adhesion to most fabrics, geothermal membranes and textiles doesnot require a primer.Stainless Steel:Stainless steel may be grit blasted and degreased before priming.Some stainless steel alloys are so inert that it is not possible to achievea satisfactory bond. An adhesion test is recommended prior tostarting the project.New and Old Cast Iron:Blast with a steel grit and degrease before priming. Old cast iron isdifficult to prepare for a satisfactory bond. It can absorb oil and watersoluble contaminants that will keep returning to the surface after thecoating system has been applied and affect the coating systemadhesion. An adhesion test is recommended prior to starting theproject.All Other Surfaces:An adhesion test is recommended prior to starting the project.MIXINGPolyeuro® 5502 may not be diluted under any circumstances. Thor-oughly mix Polyeuro® 5502 Part-B (Resin side) with air driven powerequipment until a homogeneous mixture and color is obtained.APPLICATIONBoth Side-A and Side-B materials should be preconditioned to 75-80°F before application.Recommended surface temperature must be at least 5°F above thedew point.Polyeuro® 5502 should be applied using a plural component, heated,high pressure 1:1 spray mixing equipment like Graco’s Reactor, GlassCraft or other equivalent machine may be used.Both Part-A and Part-B materials should be sprayed at a minimum of2000 psi and at temperatures above 150°F. Adequate pressure andtemperature should be maintained at all times.Polyeuro® 5502 should be sprayed in smooth, multidirectionalpasses to improve uniform thickness and appearance.STORAGEPolyeuro® 5502 has a shelf life of one (1) year from date ofmanufacture, in factory-sealed containers.Part-A and Part-B drums are recommended to be stored above 60°F.Avoid freezing temperatures.Store drums on wooden pallets to avoid direct contact with theground.If stored for a long period of time, rotate Part-A and Part-B drumsregularly.LIMITATIONSDo not open until ready to use.Both Part-A and Part-B containers must be fitted with a desiccantdevice during use.WARNINGThis product contains Isocyanates and Curative Material.
