Packaging

Structure Guard is available in 5 gallon pails and 55 gallon drums.

Yield

Structure Guard will yield theoretical coverage of 20 sq. ft  per gallon @ 80 mils thickness. Actual surface coverage will depend on substrate porosity and roughness. A wet film thickness gauge may be used to determine actual coating thickness.

Typical Usage

With Structure Guard®, only 1 coat is needed to attain finished thickness. If additional coats are called for they must be applied  before the previous coat has completely cross-linked, typically for

2 hours @ 70°F (higher temperatures/humidity will shorten this window). If re-coating is needed, brush blast before applying the next coat. Before re-coating, clean and dry surface thoroughly to remove all contamination, including amine blush or condensation. Small areas may be abraded by sanding or wire brushing.

The same requirements apply when overlapping seams of adjacent coating sections to create a continuous protective film. If the coating surface to be overlapped at the seam cannot be brush blasted, use a non-impact means, such as power brushing or sanding, to create adequate mechanical profile.

Preparation

Coating performance is largely determined by the degree of surface preparation. MORE IS BETTER.

EXISTING CONCRETE AND MASONRY substrates must be prepared  in a manner that provides a uniform, sound, clean, neutralized surface with sufficient profile suitable for the specified coating. The substrate must be free of all contaminants, such as oil, grease, rust, scale or deposits and have a surface profile equivalent to a CSP3 to CSP5 in accordance with ICRI Technical Guideline No. 03732. This

can generally be achieved by abrasive blasting, shot blasting, high pressure water cleaning, water jetting, acid etch, hot water/steam cleaning or a combination of methods.

NEW CONCRETE AND MASONRY SUBSTRATES must be profiled to achieve a CSP4.

STEEL surfaces may require “Solvent Cleaning” (SSPC-SP 1) to remove oil, grease and other soluble contaminants. Chemical contaminants may be removed according to SSPCSP 12/NACE No. 5. Identification of the contaminants, along with their concentrations, may be obtained from laboratory and field tests as described in SSPC-TU 4 “Field Methods for Retrieval and Analysis  of  Soluble Salts on Substrates”. Surfaces to be coated should then be prepared according to SSPC-SP 5/NACE No.1 “White Blast Cleaning” for immersion service or SSPC-SP 10/NACE No. 2. “Near White Blast Cleaning” for all other service. In certain situations, an alternate procedure may be to used such as high (>5,000 psi) or ultrahigh (>10,000 psi) pressure water cleaning or water cleaning with sand injection. The resulting anchor profile shall be 2.5-5.0 mils and be relative to the coating thickness specified.

Description

Quadex GeoKrete geopolymer is formulated to provide corrosion resistant protection in a high hydrogen sulfide environment, restore structural integrity and eliminate the infiltration of groundwater in deteriorated structures. GeoKrete is a factory blended, one-component (just add water), eco-friendly, micro-fiber reinforced geopolymer mortar synthesized from reactive SiO2 and Al2O from industrial byproducts, enhanced with monocrystalline quartz aggregate. The GeoKrete geopolymer reaction mechanism is alkali-activated polycondensation which yields superior physical properties and chemical resistance. It can be applied in one pass up to several inches thick on horizontal or vertical surfaces by low pressure spraying or spin cast application process.

Packaging

GeoKrete geopolymer is supplied in 60 lb. | 27.2 kg. poly- lined bags or 1,000 lb. | 454kg super sacks.

Yield

One 60 lb. | 27.2 kg bag of GeoKrete geopolymer will yield approximately 0.45 cu. ft. | 0.013 cu. m. and will cover 10.8 sq. ft. | 1.0 sq. m. at a 1/2-inch | 12.7 mm thickness.

Procedure

Prepare surface to be patched by removing unsound concrete, dirt, dust, oil and other debris using high pressure (3,500 PSI | 241.3 bar) water blasting. Stop active infiltration. Then rinse with potable water to remove all remaining dirt, sand and loose debris. This will provide a clean, damp surface to allow for a good bond.

Use approximately 0.49 to 0.59 gallons | 1.85 to 2.23 liters of potable water per 60 lb. | 27.2 kg bag of GeoKrete geopolymer. For 1,000 lb. | 454 kg. supersack use approximately 8.0 to 9.5 gallons | 30.3 to 36 liters of potable water. First add water to mixer, start the mixer and add GeoKrete geopolymer until mortar is completely mixed. Once all geopolymer material and water has been added to mixer, it needs to mix for approximately five (5) minutes prior to being transfered into the material hopper. Once fully mixed, additional water may be added, as approved by Quadex, should it be necessary for proper consistency.

Apply GeoKrete geopolymer by low pressure spraying or the spin cast application process on horizontal or vertical surfaces to a monolithic minimum thickness of 1/2-inch | 12.7 mm for a protective layer to new or non-corroded infrastructure and 1.0-inch | 25.4 mm for structural restoration of existing infrastructure.
