<strong>CONTEC</strong> <strong>BINDER</strong> S<br />
CEMENTITIOUS <strong>BINDER</strong>S<br />
Product No. 01.02<br />
DESCRIPTION<br />
Contec Binder S is a specially developed fast<br />
setting and shrinkage compensated cement<br />
based binder with extreme density and high<br />
compressive strength compared to traditional<br />
cementitous binders. Contec Binder S is<br />
combining the latest cement / microparticle<br />
technology with a totally new union of additives<br />
which results in a binder which is fast setting<br />
and has a very low shrinkage.<br />
Mortars, grouts and concrete based on Contec<br />
Binder S achieve properties way beyond the<br />
possibilities of traditional cementitous binders.<br />
USES<br />
Contec Binder S is used as the binder component<br />
for producing all Contec S type ready<br />
mixed mortars for industrial flooring systems<br />
as well as gunite mortars, repair mortars and<br />
non shrink grouts. Contec Binder S is<br />
combining a very high 5 hour strength (min.15<br />
N/mm²) with a very high final strength.<br />
Contec Binder S is perfectly suited for both<br />
wire mesh and fibre reinforcement, which<br />
significantly improves the properties of the mix.<br />
RECEPIES<br />
Before preparing your own mixes, based on<br />
recepies with Contec Binder S, it is very<br />
important that the quality and sieve analysis of<br />
your local aggregates is tested together with<br />
specialists, on this field, within the Contec<br />
group of companies.Based on your local<br />
aggregates we will be happy to make the first<br />
trial mixes to investigate the possibilities.<br />
TEST MIXES<br />
It is very important to make test mixes of the<br />
recepies given, before starting to make the<br />
final mix on the building site. A lot of different<br />
things influence the workability and properties<br />
of the final material. Working with thin coatings<br />
on industrial floors and concrete surfaces is a<br />
difficult area, which is why the mix must be<br />
functioning a 100%.<br />
OTHER APPLICATIONS<br />
Contec Binder S is also used as a primer coat<br />
to improve bonding of vibrated granolithic<br />
Contec S toppings to existing concrete.<br />
When used for this purpose please read our<br />
technical leaflet "Contec Primer S, Product no.<br />
04.040".<br />
CONSUMPTION<br />
Depending on the wanted workability and properties<br />
of the final mix an amount of 15 - 40%<br />
of Contec Binder S is needed for a High<br />
strength Mortar, grout or concrete.<br />
When used as bonding agent or primer an<br />
amount of 25 kg Contec Binder S combined<br />
with water produces approx. 16 litres of ready<br />
to use primer. 1 kg of Contec Binder S used as<br />
primer coat covers app.1 m².<br />
DELIVERY<br />
Contec Binder S is supplied in:<br />
25 kg bags on pallets of 750 kg, net weight.<br />
1000 kg Big Bag, net weight on 1 pallet.<br />
Bulk delivery in silo trucks or ship.
MIXING<br />
Contec Binder S used as Primer is mixed in a<br />
pan-type mixer or in a suitable container using<br />
a fast speed drill with a suitable mixing paddle<br />
for a minimum of 5 minutes until a<br />
homogeneous mix is obtained.<br />
Contec Binder S mixed with local sand and<br />
stones must be mixed in an efficient pan-type<br />
mixer to achieve the expected results.<br />
Before you start mixing on the building site or<br />
in the mixing plant please consult your local<br />
Contec dealer or our office to discuss details.<br />
STORAGE<br />
Bags of Contec powder must be stored on<br />
pallets in dry conditions. Under these conditions<br />
the shelf life is max. 6 months.<br />
HEALTH AND SAFETY<br />
Contec cementitious systems are non-toxic<br />
and safe to use. However powder in contact<br />
with water or moisture, produces a strong<br />
alkaline solution. Protective gloves, clothing<br />
and a dust mask should be worn when mixing<br />
and applying the material.<br />
