Product information

ANQUAMINE 728
Curing Agent

DESCRIPTION

Anquamine 728 is a waterborne amine curing agent for use in concrete epoxy primers and topcoats that
delivers fast backin-service next day under adverse cure conditions (10°C and 60-85% RH). The product
can be used with Ancarez AR-555 solid epoxy resin dispersion to facilitate 1-day floor Installation
(primer/topcoat) with next day walk-on. Coatings based on Anquamine 728 can be applied upto 500 g/m2
with minimal impact on cure speed.

CONCRETE PRIMER

This formulation is ideally suited as a primer for concrete surfaces, including damp concrete, offering fast
dry, excellent adhesion and overcoatability.

A-component PBW
Anquamine 728 curing agent (Evonik) 20
B-component
Ancarez AR-555 epoxy resin dispersion (Evonik) 60
C-component
Water 20
Total Parts: 100
Instructions for use: After mixing Part A and B, water addition is required to adjust to application viscosity. Pour the primer onto
the substrate and spread by use of roller or squeegee.

WHITE TOPCOAT
This system can be used as a white top coat or can be employed as a base for tinting systems and further
modified with the addition of pigment dispersions to offer a wide colour pallet.

Total Parts: 100
Instructions for use: Charge components 1-5 and stir at low shear. Slowly add pigment/fillers, then increase the speed to 10-20
m/s for 15 minutes. Add remaining components at low shear rate. Note: some of the water may be added during addition of the
pigments/fillers in order to achieve a uniform grind.
