CHEMIX WB – 30
Water Based Bitumen Emulsion Protective Coating
Description

Chemix WB-30 is one component water based high solid content bitumen emulsion
that when applied, obtains a damp proof protective coating. It gives a continuous
barrier to the passage of water and water vapor. It dries quickly and acts as a protective
and curing material for all cementitious substrates, masonry, and brick walls.
Chemix WB-30 could also be used as a primer and adhesive for a wide range of torch
applied bituminous membranes, and for under cladding works for facades.
Chemix WB-30 could also used as a curing compound for the concrete which is
supposed to be buried (like foundation) if coated just after the final set of the concrete
takes place, and thus Chemix WB-30 gives a free cost save for its user.

Uses
Water proofing for foundations and all underground works.
As a primer for all reinforced bituminous membrane isolation systems.
As a curing agent for underground concrete.
For all cladding works under marble and metal sections finishing.

Advantages
Good adhesion to most construction substrates.
Non Flammable.
Could be applied over green concrete and damp surfaces.
Asbestos free
Easy to apply, one component.
Fast drying.
Safe, as it is water based.
Economical, especially if used as a curing and damp proof agent in a time.
Resists chloride ion, and sulfates attack.

Standard Compliance
Chemix WB-30 complies with the following ASTM standards D 4479, D70 ASTM
C309 Water retention requirement as a curing compound

Packaging
20 Kg pail & 200 Kg drums.

The DFT thickness is 80 mic@4m²/kg.


But this thickness is theoretical due to the high expected absorption in concrete.

Application Instructions

Surface Preparation
The surface to be treated must be sound, clean and free from contamination such as oil
and grease.

Application

Chemix WB-30 should be stirred well before use. It is recommended to be applied by


brush or roller for two coats (in case high build layer is required, more coats should be
applied).
Chemix WB-30 could be applied on damp and green concrete

Cleaning

Chemix WB-30 can be removed from tools and equipments with water as long as it is
wet.

Precautions

Health and Safety


Chemix WB-30 is non - hazardous. It should not be swallowed or allowed to come
into direct contact with skin or eyes. Suitable protective goggles and gloves should be
worn. In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek
