VIASOL EP-S5400 - low-yellowing, resistant to discoloration and low-emission
The new sealer impresses with its easy processing, high mechanical and chemical resistance and complete absence of added solvents!
This was the ambitious objective at the beginning of the development process. The result after the intensive development and testing phase: VIASOL EP-S5400.
such as VIASOL DESIGN QCV. The glossy appearance of the sealer perfectly highlights the coloured quartz sand and at the same time protects the system from penetrating substances and abrasion. VIASOL EP-S5400 thus complements the range of transparent sealers from VIACOR with a particularly economical alternative in addition to the highly stain-resistant VIASOL PU-S667 N and the fast-curing VIASOL PU-S691. In addition to the application on broadcasted systems, VIASOL EP-S5400 can also be used as a sealer on smooth substrates, for example with the addition of VIASOL Micropearls (solid glass beads), due to its excellent wetting properties
In addition to the properties typical of VIACOR products, such as easy processability, high mechanical and chemical resistance, and a complete absence of added solvents, VIASOL EP-S5400 is characterized in particular by the following three special features:
Particularly low emission according to TÜV PROFiCERT PREMIUM
Particularly low yellowing
Particularly resistant to staining
As part of the TÜV PROFiCERT test program, VIASOL EP-S5400 was tested in the system build-up for emissions of potentially harmful VOCs (volatile organic compounds) and for the presence of other pollutants. The best possible result was achieved with classification in the PREMIUM category. In addition to compliance with AgBB standards, this also confirms compliance with other international VOC limits (including M1, MVV TB, LEED v4, BREEAM). The product is therefore ideally suited for use in indoor areas where people are present.
This is impressively illustrated in the extreme test under permanent irradiation with a UV content of 100%. The diagram shows the yellowing behavior of VIASOL EP-S5400 in comparison with two comparable competitor products available on the market, based on the delta-b value as a measure of yellow discoloration. It shows impressively that VIASOL EP-S5400 yellows much slower and even after more than 350 h hours of extreme UV exposure shows less than half the discoloration of the two competitor products.
To validate this property, VIASOL EP-S5400, together with the two competitor products, was exposed to various organic substances from everyday life over several periods of time in an extensive test program. The substances tested included beet, ketchup, red wine, vinegar and curry paste, and thus reflected very practical exposure, for example in kitchen or canteen areas. The diagram shows the percentage of the tested substances which led to irreversible discoloration of the tested sealers after an exposure period of 10 min, 3 h and 24 h. VIASOL EP-S5400, together with a competitor product, demonstrated a very high resistance to staining and was able to clearly distinguish itself from the other competitor product, which was susceptible to staining.
