Resins - POLYURETHANE
Robert Penczek 16.01.2017
Selected Resins used for strata stabilization

2C (two component) systems

ISOCYANATES + POLYOLS = POLYURETHANES (PU)

ISOCYANATES + WATER GLAS = SILICATES (USR)

1C (one component) systems

ISOCYANATES + WATER = UREA FOMAS

ISOCYANATES = POLYISOCYANURATE

POLYURETHANES – Why?

Advantages
• Versatile systems
• Corrosion Resistance
• High Impact Resistance
• Superior Load Bearing Capacity
• Very good mechanical properties
• The chemical expansion makes polyurethane very effective at cracks and voids filling
• Can be applied in nearly any temperature
• Good adhesion for different substrates
• 100% solid system (solvent and plasticizer free)

STRATA BOND W - Additives

• Strata Add Fast

Strata Add Fast is a curing accelerator for 2C polyurethane injection resins. The accelerator allows a fast
curing for immediate support in tunneling, mining and civil engineering.
• By addition of an accelerate, the injection resin can be adapted to given ground condition, temperature,
on-side conditions,
• Allow to work in low temperatures,
• Sealing of cracks and gaps against water flow,
• It is easy to mix using simple, available on side equipment.

• Strata Add Tix

Strata Add Tix is a thixotropic agent for 2C polyurethane injection resins. Add Tix allows to reach immediate
viscosity increase needed in tunneling, mining and civil engineering.
• By addition of thixotropy agent, the injection resin can be adapted to given ground condition,
temperature, on-side conditions,
• Allow to work with big gaps, cracks and massive water flows,
• Sealing of cracks and gaps against water flow,
• It is easy to mix using simple, available on side equipment.
