VINNAPAS® eco 8118 E (XX MB)

$VINNAPAS<sup>®</sup> eco 8118 E (XX MB)

VINNAPAS® eco 8118 E (XX MB)  is a multi-purpose dispersible polymer powder for dry mix mortars, specifically suited for tile adhesives. It is based on a flexible terpolymer of vinylacetate, ethylene and vinychloride and belongs to the product class VINNAPAS® E which means that it has a neutral effect on rheology and provides extended open time and very high adhesion after water immersion and heat storage, giving a high degree of formulation freedom.

VINNAPAS® eco is a fossil resources saving product, where a specific share of the fossil-based raw materials required for manufacturing of this product can be replaced by certified sustainable renewable feedstock. The substitution is based on the REDcert² mass balance approach, audited by an independent third party.

The exact amount of fossil raw material replaced depends on the selected product version and is specified in the corresponding certificate. Please contact your WACKER representative or visit the product page on the WACKER website www.wacker.com for additional information regarding WACKER’s products or sustainability efforts, including mass balance.

Processing

For the production of ready-mixed dry mortars, such as adhesives and patching compounds, blend VINNAPAS® eco 8118 E (XX MB) with the other dry ingredients in appropriate equipment. Temperatures should not be allowed to rise excessively during mixing because otherwise the dispersible polymer powder could agglomerate by virtue of its thermoplastic properties. The mortar is prepared for use by adding the recommended amount of water and mixing mechanically or by hand. Since hand mixing generates little shear force, we recommend allowing the fresh mortar to slake for 5 minutes and then stirring it again. This is usually unnecessary where mechanical mixers are employed.


 

If the product is used in applications other than those mentioned, the choice, processing and use of it is the sole responsibility of the purchaser. All legal and other regulations must be complied with.

Slight color variations of the polymer granulate may occure without impairing the product's functionality.

Storage

During storage, protect the product from contact with moisture. Prolonged storage at temperatures above 30 °C, especially in combination with pressure, humidity or exposure to sunlight, may result in blocking. Carefully seal any open containers and store them under suitable conditions. We recommend storing the product in a warehouse that provides cool and dry conditions. Do not store the product for more than six months, starting from the date at which it was received, unless the Certificate of Analysis contains a different date, which would take precedence. If the product is stored longer than recommended, it may still be used but users are advised to verify the properties required for the intended use.
