constructive solutions
Exotherm All epoxy products will develop a temperature rise on mixing. Its extent will be a function of the volume to surface ratio, the ambient temperature as well as the mass and thermal conductivity of the surrounding materials. Fosroc shall be contacted for specific data.
Specification clauses
Performance specification All epoxy injection must be carried out with a two component low viscous epoxy resin system. The epoxy resin shall have sufficiently low viscosity ( 150-300 cps) to ensure easy injection into cracks and voids. The epoxy injection grout shall develop a compressive strength exceeding 60 N/mm2 @ 7days, tensile strength exceeding 15 N/mm2 and flexural strength exceeding 50N/mm2. The mixed epoxy shall have a pot life exceeding 30 minutes @ 300C. Supplier specification All epoxy injection must be carried out using Nitofill EPLV manufactured by Fosroc and used in accordance with the manufacturer's datasheet. The storage, handling and placement of the grout must be in strict accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
Application instructions
Surface preparation The area to be injected shall be cleaned to remove all loose material, laitence, grease and other deposits. Drilling injection holes Injection holes of 8 - 10mm dia shall be drilled at fixed intervals along the crack length or in a grid pattern incase of grouting of voids in concrete.

The holes shall be cleaned to remove all dust and loose material by blowing compressed air. Fixing Nipples
Suitable injection nipples of GI/PVC shall be fixed in these holes using an epoxy sealing putty . The cracks shall also be sealed with this product. Injection of resin The two components of Nitofill EPLV injection grout shall be individually stirred and then mixed and injected into the nipples through a suitable injection pump exerting a uniform pressure. Injection shall be carried out till it flows from the adjacent nipple and then stopped. The same operation shall be carried out for the next nipple.
Chemical resistance Nitofill EPLV is resistant to oil, grease, fats, most chemicals, mild acids and alkalis, fresh and sea water. Fosroc shall be contacted when exposure to solvent or concentrated chemicals is anticipated.

Precautions
After all the holes are completed, the nipples are removed next day and the holes shall be sealed with a high strength mortar. Note : For grouting under base plates with very narrow gaps, either injection grouting or normal grouting by pouring, can be resorted to. For details, Fosroc shall be contacted. Cleaning All tools and equipment should be cleaned immediately after use with Nitoflor Sol. Spillages should be absorbed with sand or sawdust and disposed in accordance with local regulations. Health and Safety instructions Nitofill EPLV contains resins which may cause sensitisation when comes in contact with skin. Contact with skin and eyes and inhalation of vapour shall be avoided. Use of suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye/face protection is recommended. Barrier creams provide additional skin protection. Should accidental skin contact occur, it shall be removed immediately with a resin removing cream, followed by soap and water. Solvent should not be used. Incase of contact with eyes, immediate rinsing with plenty of clean water is suggested and medical attention shall be sought immediately - Vomiting should not be induced. Fire Nitoflor Sol is flammable. In the event of fire, use of fire extinguishers like Carbon dioxide or foam is suggested. Flash point :
