Technical data sheet ESCOSIL-2000-UW Preparing the substrate Requirement for substrate 1. Clean 2. Free of adhesion inhibiting substances 3. Dry
Priming table
Preparing the surface 1. No moisture may enter during hardening. This also applies to the edges and the joint edge. 2. Pre-treat the joint edges with OTTO Primer 1218 on cementitious substrates (e.g. ceramic tiles and boards, concrete, etc.). 3. When applying to metal (stainless steel, aluminium, hot-dip galvanisation, etc.), prime the joint edges with OTTO Primer 1216. 4. Carry out performance tests on the building on coated and plastic surfaces. 5. Allow the primer to dry.
Application Application 1. When filling with ESCOSIL-2000-UW, the general standards for jointing technology are essential. 2. Smooth the surface of the applied sealing compound using a smoothing agent and suitable tools before it can form a skin. Push the material into the joints and press onto the contact surfaces. 3. Water may only be present after 4 days at the earliest.
Cleaning tools Clean tools immediately after use with ASO-R001.
Storage conditions Storage Store in a cool and dry place. Min. 12 months in the original canister. Promptly use opened container.
Disposal Product residues can be disposed of in accordance with disposal code AVV 08 04 09.

Technical data sheet ESCOSIL-2000-UW Notes Protect surfaces that are not to be treated from the effects of ESCOSIL-2000-UW! Avoid contamination on the skin and remove with soap and water if necessary. Unhardened ESCOSIL-2000-UW sealing compound must not be allowed to get into eyes and/or mucous membranes. Rise the eyes immediately with a large amount of water and consult a doctor. Avoid extended and repeated skin contact. When using the primer, comply with all precautions for handling paints / solvents that contain solvents. Re-establish an alkaline environment after using acidic cleaning materials. The risk of mould/mildew is increased by the application. Use ESCOSIL-2000-ST for concrete and natural stones. Contains a mixture of butanone oxime silanes and butanone oxime. May cause allergic reactions. This must not be inhaled continuously, as damage to health cannot be ruled out. When using in swimming pools, chlorine disinfection must be performed to prevent a case of mould / algae. The alternative measures (e.g. UV radiation or ozonisation) do not have a disinfectant depot effect. Even water circulation must always be operating and must not be interrupted. The chlorine concentration must always be at least 0.3 mg per litre. Oil, tar and bitumen containing backing strips as well as materials based on natural rubber, chloroprene or EPDM are not suitable. All values given in the TM apply at +23°C and 50% relative humidity. Carry out performance tests on the building when using on coated and plastic surfaces! Resistant to chlorine in the concentrations required to disinfect swimming pools Use a round cord to limit the jointing compound thickness in the joints to no more than 10 mm. A PE film can be inserted into the joint base to prevent three-sided bonding of the jointing compound if there is a low joint depth. The curing time extends as the silicone layer thickness increases. We recommend cleaning the hardened jointing compound with clear water before filling the swimming pool, in order to remove smoothing agent residues from the surface. Smoothing agent residues could encourage microorganisms to settle and cause mould/mildew.
