    CIM EMT Two-Component Primer

    50638

    CIM EMT Primer is a two-component, 97% solids moisture tolerant epoxy coating formulated as a primer for porous surfaces. The EMT primer can be used in combination with CIM high performance coatings to green concrete. This product requires both the hardener and resin to function.

    Overview

    CIM EMT Primer is a specialized two-component, solvent-free epoxy primer, engineered to excel on green and damp porous surfaces, particularly concrete. With a high solids content of 97%, this primer is moisture tolerant, making it suitable for applications where achieving a completely dry surface is challenging. Its formulation allows for compatibility with CIM high-performance coatings, facilitating effective use on green concrete, while the solvent-free nature ensures minimal odor disruption in sensitive environments.

    Designed specifically for porous substrates, CIM EMT Primer plays a crucial role in sealing surfaces to reduce outgassing in waterproofing applications. This feature allows it to lower water vapor transmission rates on various substrates and ensures that the protective layer is effective on metal, concrete, and geotextiles. This primer not only adheres well to new concrete but also aids in maintaining the integrity of prepared metal surfaces by preventing flash rust, making it a versatile addition to any project requiring high-performance solutions.

     

    Key Features

    • Two-component formulation: Ensures optimal adhesion and performance.
    • 97% solids content: Promotes high build and effective surface sealing.
    • Moisture tolerant: Ideal for use on damp or green concrete.
    • Solvent-free: Reduces odor and environmental impact.
    • Fast application: Compatible with CIM waterproofing membranes applied in as few as 4 hours after application.

     

    Applications

    • Priming porous surfaces prior to the application of topcoats.
    • Sealing new concrete surfaces to minimize outgassing.
    • Providing a protective film on metal to prevent flash rust.
    • Utilizing with CIM high-performance coatings to lessen water vapor transmission.
    • Aiding adhesion on non-porous substrates like metal and tile.

     

    Benefits

    • Enhances adhesion and performance of subsequent coatings.
    • Reduces strong odors in environments sensitive to solvent fumes.
    • Allows application on surfaces where complete drying cannot be achieved.
    • Improves overall project efficiency with quick-setting attributes.
    • Complies with stringent VOC regulations, supporting environmental standards.

    With its robust performance characteristics and compatibility with various substrates, CIM EMT Primer is an essential product for those seeking reliable, high-quality primer solutions in demanding conditions.
