Application
Mixing Ratio
Part A : part B = 79 : 21 (by weight)
Ambient Air Temperature
+10 °C min. / +30 °C max.
Relative Air Humidity
80 % r.h. max.
Dew Point
Beware of condensation!
The substrate and uncured floor must be at least 3 °C above dew point to reduce the risk of condensation or blooming on the floor finish.
Note: Low temperatures and high humidity conditions increase the probability of blooming.
Substrate Temperature
+10 °C min. / +30 °C max.
Substrate Moisture Content
< 4 % pbw moisture content.
Test method: Sika®-Tramex meter, CM-measurement or oven-dry-method.
No rising moisture according to ASTM (Polyethylene-sheet).
Pot Life
Temperature | Time |
+10 °C | ~ 50 minutes |
+20 °C | ~ 25 minutes |
+30 °C | ~ 15 minutes |
Curing Time
Before applying Sikafloor®-264 Thixo on Sikafloor®-156/-161 /-160 allow:
Substrate temperature | Minimum | Maximum |
+10 °C | 24 hours | 3 days |
+20 °C | 12 hours | 2 days |
+30 °C | 8 hours | 24 hours |
Before applying Sikafloor®-264 Thixo on Sikafloor®-263SL allow:
Substrate temperature | Minimum | Maximum |
+10 °C | 30 hours | 3 days |
+20 °C | 24 hours | 2 days |
+30 °C | 16 hours | 1 days |
Times are approximate and will be affected by changing ambient conditions particularly temperature and relative humidity.
Consumption
~ 0.5-0.8 kg/m²
These figures are theoretical and do not allow for any additional material due to surface porosity, surface profile, variations in level or wastage etc. For detailed info, please refer to the System data sheet Sikafloor® Multidur ET-15.
MIXING
Prior to mixing, stir part A mechanically. When all of part B has been added to part A, mix continuously for 3 minutes until a uniform mix has been achieved. When parts A and B have been mixed, add the quartz sand and if required the Extender T and mix for a further 2 minutes until a uniform mix has been achieved. To ensure thorough mixing pour materials into another container and mix again to achieve a consistent mix. Over mixing must be avoided to minimise air entrainment.
Mixing Tools
Sikafloor®-264 Thixo must be thoroughly mixed using a low speed electric stirrer (300 - 400 rpm) or other suitable equipment. For the preparation of mortars use a forced action mixer of rotating pan, paddle or trough type. Free fall mixers should not be used.
APPLICATION
Prior to application, confirm substrate moisture content, relative air humidity and dew point. If > 4 % pbw moisture content, Sikafloor® EpoCem® may be applied as a temporary moisture barrier (T.M.B.) system.
Primer
Make sure that a continuous, pore free coat covers the substrate. If necessary, apply two priming coats. Apply Sikafloor®-156 /-161 /-160 by brush, roller or squeegee.
Preferred application is by using a squeegee and then backrolling crosswise.
Levelling
Rough surfaces need to be levelled first. Therefore use e.g. Sikafloor®-156/-161/-160 levelling mortar (see PDS).
Textured roller coating/Textured roller coating with improved slip resistance
Sikafloor®-264 Thixo is poured and spread evenly by means of a serrated trowel and then back-rolled crosswise with a textured roller.
Seal coat
Sikafloor®-264 Thixo is poured and spread evenly by means of a squeegee and then back-rolled crosswise with a textured roller or a short piled roller.
