CONCRESIVE
ERL
A high build epoxy liner for applications
where abrasion and chemical resistance
are required
Description
CONCRESIVE ERL is a multi component solvent free
modified epoxy resin mortar specifically designed to meet
the in-service demands of a chemical resistant lining mortar.
The selected blend of fillers and resins produce a mortar
with exceptional handling properties. The finished cured
mortar is highly impervious and combines optimum chemical
and mechanical resistance.
Primary uses
CONCRESIVE ERL can be applied to most commonly
encountered building materials such as concrete, blockwork,
brickwork, clay pipes and iron. Typical applications include:
Lining and benching manholes.
Sewage digester tanks.
Water retaining structures.
Wherever an impervious lining or mortar is required with
maximum chemical resistance.
Advantages
Suitable for high build up to 12mm without formwork on

vertical surfaces.
Designed for vertical, horizontal and overhead
application.
Good adhesion and cure under damp conditions.
Excellent pot life and working time.
Low exotherm.
High mechanical strength.
Non toxic.
mechanical mixer such as a Mixal or similar. If hand mixing

is necessary, care should be taken to ensure complete and
thorough mixing.
Surfaces must be clean and free of surface moisture. All
dirt, cement laitance and deleterious matter must be
removed by thorough wire brushing, grit blasting or
scabbling followed by blowing clean with oil-free
compressed air.
All surfaces must be primed. Use CONCRESIVE 1020, a
two-pack solventless adhesive and tack coat.

Application procedure
Thoroughly mix the base with the reactor and then add in
the aggregate to obtain a trowellable mortar of uniform
colour and appearance. Whenever possible, use a
CONCRESIVE ERL has been specifically designed for use

in sewage environments in hot climates and has
successfully passed 180 days complete immersion in dilute
sulphuric acid at 40C (Test report available upon request).
CONCRESIVE ERL has excellent resistance to a wide
range of aqueous media, raw sewage, dilute mineral acids,
alkalis, salt water, detergents etc. Resistant to

hydrocarbons and chlorinated solvents.
Coverage
Poor resistance to alcohols, ketones and organic acid.

CONCRESIVE ERL may yellow on exposure to certain
chemicals or environments. This yellowing does not affect
the chemical or mechanical properties of CONCRESIVE
ERL.
A 15kg pack will cover 1.79 m at a thickness of 5mm

excluding wastage.
Equipment care
All equipment should be cleaned immediately after use by
means of CLEANING SOLVENT NO. 2.
Guide to application
Thoroughly mix base and reactor components of the primer
for 1 minute and apply evenly to the substrate using a stiff
brush. The contents of the container must be used within 45
minutes of mixing at 23C.
Priming should be carried out in advance of application of
the mortar. It is essential to apply the mortar on top of the
primer whilst the latter is still tacky. If the first priming coat
should gel, apply a second priming coat before applying the
mortar.
1 litre of CONCRESIVE 1020 Primer will be sufficient to
treat approximately 4-8 square metres (dependant on
porosity and texture of surface).
The thoroughly mixed mortar should be used without delay
and applied using a steel trowel. Press well into the primed
surface and compact to ensure positive and permanent
adhesion. Use a steel trowel to finish and bring resin to the
surface.
When used in vertical applications, thickness up to 12mm
can be applied in one coat. If greater thicknesses are
required, further priming between layers is necessary and
the backing layer should be cross hatched before cure takes
place to provide a mechanical key. For horizontal
applications, thickness up to 100mm can be produced
without problems. TO ENSURE MAXIMUM CHEMICAL
RESISTANCE A MINIMUM APPLICATION THICKNESS OF
5MM IS RECOMMENDED.
Note:
CONCRESIVE ERL has been specifically formulated to
ensure optimum application properties over a wide range of
temperatures. Due to its exceptional pot life, cold joints can
generally be avoided. If due to particular circumstances day
work joints are necessary, take care to step the mortar and
re-prime. Care should also be taken at wall and floor joints
and angled fillets should be provided wherever possible.
Should a smooth glossy finish be required the surface may
be overcoated with CONCRESIVE 1020.
Safety precautions
As with all chemical products, care should be taken during
use and storage to avoid contact with eyes, mouth, skin and
foodstuffs (which may also be tainted with vapour until
product is fully cured). Treat splashes to eyes and skin
immediately. If accidentally ingested, seek immediate
medical attention. Reseal containers after use.
Storage
Store under cover out of direct sunlight, clear of the ground
on pallets protected from rainfall and extremes of
temperature. Avoid excessive compaction. In tropical
climates the product must be stored in an air conditioned
environment.
Failure to comply with the recommended storage conditions
may result in premature deterioration of the product or
packaging. For specific storage advice consult Degussa's
Technical Services Department.

Field service, where provided, does not constitute
supervisory responsibility. For additional information contact
