DESCRIPTION

nC® ProTherm is a series of sprayable and brushable thermal insulating coatings. The series has additional properties as acoustic insulation, safe-touch, fire retardancy, high heat resistance and corrosion passivation in individual nC® ProTherm variations. This enables you to always find the suitable nC® ProTherm solution for your situation.

Based on sol-gel nanotechnology, the nC® ProTherm coatings are designed for long lasting lifetime cycles of more than 15 years outdoors, and life-long expectancy indoors. Because of the ability to insulate with a very thin layer of coating, the nC® ProTherm coatings offer space saving and cost reducing at a high degree of insulation with an U-value at 0,22 W/(m²K) at 6 mm, and a lambda (λ)-value at 0,04 W/(mK). R-value is calculated on 4,3. The coatings are moist repelling and UV-resistant. It keeps heat and cold in place.

nC® ProTherm ISO-X is a thermal insulating coating addressing both cold and heat issues. It can be applied on brick, stone, wood and concrete. Before application, the dry component A must be mixed together with resin component B. Use a mixer to prepare a 1:4 ratio powder/resin mixture. nC® ProTherm is applied by brush, roller or, preferrably, spraygun. It shows a stucco-like finish. nC® ProTherm ISO-X can be applied in one layer, between 3mm up to 12 mm. nC ProTherm ISO-X is available in off-white colour. It is available in all colours when ordered in a quantity exceeding 140 kg.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

Suitable for indoor and outdoor surfaces.
Apply on stone, concrete, wood, rooftiles or gypsum only.
nC® ProTherm ISO-X operates on surfaces with internal temperatures ranging from -50° C up to 120° C.
A nC® ProTherm ISO-X coat can withstand surface temperatures of up to 150° C for short periods of time.
Never expose a nC® ProTherm ISO-X coat to surface temperatures of more than 150° C.
During preparing and application of nC® ProTherm, use safety glasses. Protect hands and skin from exposure using gloves and use appropriate clothing.
Although free from solvents, please ensure adequate ventilation, especially when spraying.
Substrate must be free from grease, dirt or dust.
Substrate temperature must be between 4° C and 75° C.
Ambient temperature must be between 4° C and 35° C.
Do not apply when ambient humidity exceeds 90%.
Mix dry component A 25% weight to resin component B 75% weight. Use (industrial) mixer.
Mix for at least 5 minutes.
Do NOT use any thinner.
For rough surface: Use brush, roller or knife.
For smooth surface use airgun/spraygun suitable for low viscosity stucco, for application.
One-coat film thicknesses can be varied from between 3mm to 12mm WFT.
Cross layer-application is recommended, wet-in-wet.
In case of rolling a rough surface will appear. If a smooth surface is required, please wet the finished surface with a low volume water mist sprayer (not a garden hose) and move a wet metal profile of about 120 cms long over the surface to make it smooth.
Measure WFT during application. Product expands up from between 5% to 15% during application.
nC ProTherm ISO-X will decrease 10% in thickness during curing time.

SURFACE	CURING TIME
Sandstone, gypsum, brick, natural wood	12 hours, forced drying after 6 hours drying allowed at 55° C max.
Concrete, pressed wood, synthetics, glass	24 to 48 hours, forced drying after 6 hours drying allowed at 55° C max.
Curing time after which product can be exposed to full rain	12 hours

Let surface dry in for at least 6 hours before forced drying by means of blower or heater at 55° C max.
Surface can be painted over.
Clean brushes, rollers, nozzles with water immediately after any stop.
Wash hands and face after every stop.

LIMITATIONS

Do not use as a ﬁnal ﬂoor covering.
In case of long-term submersion, only install in combination with nC ProTherm H2O finish.
Do not install over poor surfaces, such as those with ﬂaking paint, grease or other contaminates.
Do not allow application during freezing temperatures.
Do not rely on visual measurement for coating thickness. Always use a wet ﬁlm thickness (WFT) and/or dry ﬁlm thickness (DFT) gauge in several areas to ensure proper application thickness.
