Matacryl® MANUAL

Seamless Waterproofing Membrane

Product Description

Matacryl® Manual is a medium viscosity, urethane-modified, pre-reacted 100% solids membrane system based on acrylic monomers. It is part of an innovative waterproofing system that supports tight completion timelines of projects and ensures long-term performance and resilience. Matacryl Manual is an easy to apply, highly elastomeric liquid waterproofing membrane and coating. It can be applied at a range of ambient and substrate temperatures from -20°C to 35°C onto cementitious based screeds, concrete, filled bitumen/asphalt, metal, ceramic tile and wood substrates.

Typical Applications

  • Bridge decks (concrete and steel)
  • Civil engineering structures and underground slabs
  • Concrete and metal rail bridges and under track ballast
  • Pedestrian and vehicular bridges and walkways
  • Tunnels, channels and dam structures
  • Waterproofing containment tanks including waste and contaminated materials storage

Features

  • Fully cured one hour after application
  • Rapid cure allows quick installation, regardless of temperature, enabling wintertime installations
  • Highly-flexible crack-bridging membrane with excellent performance characteristics, even at -30°C
  • Excellent adhesion to a variety of substrates
  • Unique chemistry facilitates easy repair solutions
  • Easy to apply using a roller or squeegee
  • No time limit or additional preparation required for subsequent membrane applications
  • Excellent chemical, abrasion, impact and puncture resistance
  • Withstands movement and stress in the substrate
  • Thixotropic version for vertical surfaces

Case Study
