The Euclid Chemical Company, a manufacturer of products for the concrete and masonry construction industry, launched two new products to its line of epoxy-based offerings: Dural Aquatight 100 Plus and Dural 50 LM FS.

The company says these products were developed in response to the needs of concrete and construction professionals, specifically to combat water-related damage and ensure optimal concrete protection and repair.

Aquatight 100 Plus

Concrete moisture mitigation systems are widely accepted as a critical part of the flooring system, used even when the moisture content of concrete or vapor transmission rate are not high at the time of flooring installation. To that end, Dural Aquatight 100 Plus is a solvent-free modified epoxy coating designed to seal concrete surfaces and reduce moisture vapor emissions prior to applying a finished flooring system.

According to the manufacturer, concrete treated with this product is well protected and prepared for the installation of most floor covering systems, including cementitious underlayment, carpeting, wood, and more. It can be applied to new and existing concrete slabs in warehouses, industrial/retail facilities, office spaces, supermarkets, and food and beverage processing centers.

It exceeds the requirements of the industry standard ASTM F3010-13, by providing up to 25 pounds of moisture vapor reduction, as well as a barrier against high-alkaline conditions at the highest level.

Dural 50 LM FS

Meanwhile, Dural 50 LM FS is a low-modulus, solvent-free, fast-curing epoxy sealer designed to penetrate concrete and protect it from the damaging effects of chlorides and water. Over time, water can seep into the concrete foundation and ultimately break down the concrete, causing damages to the surface such as cracks.

To address that, Dural 50 LM FS is designed to repair and seal cracks in concrete substrates, while also significantly reducing chloride intrusion. Its ultra-low viscosity ensures superior substrate wetting and easy penetration into static cracks of concrete surfaces. It can also be used as a fast-setting primer for epoxy polymer overlay systems.
