BETEC 1005 BETOSEA

Description

BETEC 1005 is a cement-bound synthetic modified (PCC) repair mortar which has been especially developed for repairs occurring usually under water. BETEC 1005 BETOSEA provides excellent adhesion to existing concrete constructions and does not wash out.

10050-1 
Quality control

During manufacturing only high-quality aggregates are used, which meet the strictest requirements. During the production process as well as during the final stages these materials are extensively tested for quality, not only in our own laboratory, but also in independent acknowledged institutes.

Application areas Advantages
  • BETEC 1005 is suited for all the usual under-water repairs, such as damages to concrete in the broadest sense, for example gravel pockets, broken edges, repair of joints in brickwork etc.
  • Product ready for use, which is easy to process and environment-friendly
  • Chromate reduced
  • Checked volume increase
  • No plastic shrinkage
  • Free of chlorides and other corrosive aggregates
  • Contains no aluminous cement
  • Very good adhesion to concrete and steel
  • Because the product is cement-bound, it causes the recovery of the alkaline environment, so it will constitute the passive protection of the reinforcing steel
Packaging and storage
20 kg bags. Dry and frostproof, storage life 12 months in the original and closed packaging.
Precautions
Refer to safety sheets.
Preliminary treatment of the ground
The ground should be free of contaminants such as oil, cement skin, grease, corroded concrete, loose parts etc. Remove water-bloom before application, and apply BETEC 1005 BETOSEA immediately afterwards. It should be taken into account that the material applied must be protected against flow and wave action.

Processing advice

General Processing Advice Trowel and wet guniting grouts (cement-bound) [B]

Preliminary treatment of the ground
Before applying BETEC repair mortar, the mineral ground should be freed of cement skin, dirt, grease, oil, dust, curing compound, paint residues, loose parts and other contaminants.
The ground should be roughened to such a degree that good adhesion is obtained.
Roughening and removing the cement skin from the mineral ground can be carried out by means of mechanical actions such as spraying water under high pressure, grit blasting, dabbing, grinding or hacking (pneumatically, electrically, manually).
The mineral ground should be frost-free!

Pre-moistening of the ground
Highly absorbing grounds must be moistened with clean tap water until no more water is absorbed in ample time before the repair material is applied. When applying the reparation mortar the ground should not be water-repellent (glistening wet); this will reduce adhesion. If the ground still shows too much water absorption, the adhesive surface will burn because of the low water-cement ratio.
There are various options for additional adhesive layers, dependent on the surface and field of application; refer to our technical staff concerning this.

Mixing
BETEC repair mortars can be mixed in a free-fall concrete mixer, forced mixer, Deys 200 groutautomatic or in case of smaller amounts with a plaster mixer for electric drilling machines.
For the correct water dosage we refer to the front of the packaging; the minimum and maximum water dosage are mentioned there. The water dosage should not be below the minimum need for water, the maximum dosage must not be exceeded.
Fill the mixer with 2/3 of the water dosage indicated, then add the BETEC repair mortar.First mix thoroughly, so that a mixture free of lumps is produced. Then gradually add the remaining 1/3 of the mixing water until the correct consistence is realised; do not add any more water than strictly necessary.

  • Do not add water afterwards
  • Always use clean tap water, or suited mixing fluids delivered by us
  • The total mixing time amounts to a minimum of 3 minutes (approximately 3-5 minutes)
  • The processing time amounts to approximately 50-70 minutes (high-early-strength mortars approximately 10 minutes) (20ºC)

Note: in order to obtain a polymer modified repair mortar (PCC), polymer dispersion BETEC 410 should be added to the mixing water; the ratio depends on the application: 5 to 3 parts water for 1 part BETEC 410. It is also possible to use PCC mortars which are ready for use - refer to our technical staff concerning this.

Processing
Dependent on the type of mortar, BETEC repair mortars can be applied manually or mechanically (wet-guniting system).
In manual applications, often an adhesive layer BETEC 031 or from BETEC 410 mixed 1:4 parts with tapped water should be applied; this layer must be brushed with force into the ground with a broom or a steel brush. The repair mortar should be applied within the processing time of the adhesive layer (WET-IN-WET). Dry adhesive layers must be removed.Another option is the application of an adhesive layer of the same material.

  • Minimum processing temperature of BETEC repair mortars is 5ºC; for the application in temperatures of +5ºC to -5ºC you should consult our technical staff concerning measures that should be taken in winter.

Curing
Because BETEC repair mortars are cement-bound, it is of the greatest importance that the mortar is cured. Because of the low water-cement ratio the mortar must be cured for 5 days at the minimum in order to prevent premature desiccation and ensuing shrinkage. This can be done by wetting with clean tap water. Another option is to cover the mortar with moist burlap covered with synthetic foil. Less time-consuming is the use of BETEC BETOFILM curing compound which must be applied in two layers.

Packaging and storage
BETEC mortars are delivered in packages of 20/25 kg; packaging consists of several layers of paper, with layers of perforated synthetic material in between. The packaging material is not water-tight and must be stored in a dry and frost-free place. In the original closed packaging the storage life of the mortar is 12 months.

Health & Safety
BETEC® are products based on cement and can therefore cause burns to skin and eyes, which should be protected during use. Wear gloves and protective eye shields. Wearing a dust mask is advised. Treat splashes to eyes and skin immediately with clean drinking water. Consult a doctor when irritation continues. If accidentally ingested, drink water and consult a doctor. Users must comply with all risk and safety phrases. Safety data sheets can be obtained from Deys Betontechniek or from our website. GISCODE ZP1.
