Damp Tolerable Newton Epoxy Damp-proof Membrane - Damp Tolerable Epoxy DPM
Verified by manufacturer 4 months ago
DoP
Certificate type
A two-part, solvent-free, damp-tolerable, epoxy-based damp-proof membrane (DPM) that suppresses residual construction moisture and rising dampness in concrete and sand/cement screeds.
Application
Suitable for the priming of damp, non-porous concrete and screed to provide a DPM and vapour barrier, prior to the application of moisture sensitive flooring, coatings, membranes, levelling compounds and screed.
Suitable areas of application for Epoxy DPM include:
- Podium decks;
- Car parks;
- Warehousing and storage;
- Garages;
- Plant rooms.
Description
Newton DampSafe/NewCoat DPM is a two-part, solvent-free, damp tolerable, epoxy-based primer which is above Newton NewCoat/DampSafe 901 Primer as a barrier to residual substrate moisture and vapour within concrete and screeds.
The high quality, low viscosity, epoxy formulation of the combined application of the primer and pre-primer is suitable for application onto damp surfaces, allowing for the speedy application of flooring, coatings, membranes, levelling compounds and screeds to damp substrates. Newton DampSafe/NewCoat DPM is quick and simple to use and can be applied over cementitious screeds and concrete just 7 days after placement.
It is applied by brush or roller in one coat and is a key component of the Newton NewSeal Flooring System for the sealing, coating and protection of exposed screed and concrete surfaces.
Features and benefits:
- Very damp-tolerable.
- Can be applied to concrete and screed seven days after placement.
- Solvent free.
- Excellent vapour barrier.
- High-bond DPM that provides a barrier to vapour and prevents osmotic blistering.
- Life expectancy is equal to that of the surface it is applied to.
Suitable substrates:
Indoor or outdoor floors of correctly formed, compacted and prepared:
- Concrete of at least seven days old;
- Screed of at least seven days old.
