QIS BITUMAX 2K
BITUMEN-RUBBER AND CEMENT-BASED, TWO-COMPONENT WATERPROOFING COATING
DESCRIPTION
QIS BITUMAX 2K is a waterproofing coating based on cement and polymer
modified bitumen rubber, based on water, 2 component, cold applied, used on
surfaces with undesirable UV resistance.
USAGE AREAS
• Under cladding on terraces, roofs and balconies,
• In the insulation of foundations and curtains,
• On solid surfaces based on gross concrete, screed, plaster and cement,
• It is used in the repair of old bituminous membranes.
CHARACTERISTICS
• It has high elasticity and crack covering capacity.
• It does not contain solvents or harmful substances, it is ecological.
• It does not prevent the passage of water vapor.
• Jointless coating is applied.
• It has a high adhesion strength.
• It provides precise insulation against soil moisture, moisture, water and
pressurized water.
• It is resistant to chlorine, sulfate, salt solutions, weak acids and substances
found in normal soil.
• It is resistant to freeze-thaw cycle.
• It can be used on horizontal and vertical surfaces.
APPLICATION METHOD
Surface Preparation
• The surface to be applied should be dry and clean. It should be free from
anti-stick substances such as dust, oil, paint, curing.
• Mortar residues, loose floors have to be cleaned, cracks and broken areas
have to be repaired and the surface level has to be leveled.
• The corners and edges should be chamfered with a minimum radius of 4 cm.
Lining
• The surface should be primed with QIS BITUM ASTAR (BITUMEN PRIMER).
• For priming, 1 kg QIS BITUMAX 2K can also be applied as a primer to the
surface by mixing with 400-600 rpm mixer with 4 lt water.
• After the primer is dried, it is started to be applied.
Mixing
• QIS BITUMAX 2K has two components.
• The powdered part is added to the liquid bituminous part by gradually
mixing with the mixer and stirred for 3-4 minutes until a homogeneous
mixture is obtained.
• After the stirred material is rested for about 3-5 minutes, it is again stirred
for another 30 seconds and ready for application.
• Dust and liquid quantity measurements are balanced with each other and
should not be changed.
• The mixed material should be consumed within 1 hour.
Application
• The application of QIS BITUMAX 2K should be started after the primer has
dried.
• The application can be done in 1-2 coats with a brush.
• The 2nd coat should be done after the 1st coat has dried.
• In places exposed to high pressure and load, the material should be applied
as 3 coats at the corners and using mesh between 1st and 2nd coat.
Application Conditions
• Surfaces to which QIS BITUMAX 2K is applied should be protected with
plates such as heat plates against long-lasting sunlight (UV) and sharp
parts that may come from the ground.
• The application of QIS BITUMAX 2K on the terrace should be solved with
reverse roof detail (heat insulation layer application on water insulation
layer). In addition, the slab concrete should have a minimum thickness of
WATERPROOFING SYSTEMS
12 cm, be solid and have a slope of 2%.
• Before filling the foundation pit of QIS BITUMAX 2K, it should be protected
from impacts during filling with appropriate drainage plates and thermal
insulation plates. The drainage plates should be connected to the drainage
pipes and the water likely to be filled into the foundation pit should be
drained.
• Multi-porous, distorted or perforated surfaces should be stripped with QIS
BITUMAX 2K to prevent air bubble formation and/or to smooth the surface.
• Especially in applications made in hot weather, the increase in consistency
that may occur during the usage period due to rapid water loss can be
eliminated by adding water in a rate not exceeding 3% of the material amount.
The water added material should be used after mixing homogeneously.
• In exterior applications, the surface must be protected from strong wind and
frost for the first 48 hours. The product should not come into contact with
water (at +20°C) until it has dried completely on the surface (2 days).
• Water inflatable tapes or PVC water retaining tapes should be used for cold
joint insulations at foundation and wall joints before application.
• QIS BITUMAX 2K should not be applied on metal surfaces.
