Introduction
When it comes to protecting concrete, steel and industrial structures from water damage, heavy loads and chemical exposure, not every product can deliver on all fronts. This is exactly where ASODUR-EV200 stands out. Manufactured by SCHOMBURG, ASODUR-EV200 is a flowable, high-performance mortar based on epoxy resin, engineered for anchoring, grouting and waterproofing applications that demand real strength and durability.
For anyone searching for reliable waterproofing products, a proven waterproofing system in Pakistan or the best waterproofing chemical in Pakistan, ASODUR-EV200 offers a three-component epoxy solution built for both interior and exterior use.
In this blog, we’ll break down what makes ASODUR-EV200 special, where it can be used, its technical properties and how it fits into professional waterproofing services in Pakistan offered by Aquafin Pakistan.
What is ASODUR-EV200?
ASODUR-EV200 is a three-component epoxy resin system designed as a flowable, self-compacting mortar. It is solvent-free, exhibits low shrinkage and is engineered to achieve watertightness of up to 5 bar from just 10 mm layer thickness. This makes it an excellent choice wherever both structural strength and water resistance are required at the same time.
Key Product Features
- Three-component epoxy resin system
- Solvent free formulation
- Low shrinkage during curing
- Watertight up to 5 bar, from 10 mm layer thickness
- Fire class B (DIN EN 13501) for layer thicknesses up to 75 mm
- CE certified according to DIN EN 13813
- CE certified according to DIN EN 1504–6
Advantages of Using ASODUR-EV200
Superior Strength and Durability
ASODUR-EV200 delivers high compressive and flexural strength, making it impact and vibration resistant. This is particularly valuable in industrial environments where floors and structures are subject to constant mechanical stress.
Excellent Chemical Resistance
The mortar withstands high chemical loads, which is confirmed through extensive chemical durability testing covering inorganic acids, organic acids, alkalis, solvents, oils and de-icing salts.
Strong Adhesion Without Primer
ASODUR-EV200 bonds effectively to concrete, steel and wood without requiring a primer coat, which simplifies the application process and saves time on-site. It also offers electrically insulating properties, useful for specialized applications like railway grouting.
Self-Compacting and Easy to Apply
Thanks to its flowable, self-compacting consistency, ASODUR-EV200 is easy to mix and lay, with a long working time that gives applicators flexibility during installation.
Rapid Strength Development
The product achieves rapid strength gain, with foot traffic possible after approximately 12 hours and full hardening/resilience reached in approximately 7 days.
Where Can ASODUR-EV200 Be Used?
ASODUR-EV200 is a versatile solution suited to a wide range of waterproofing and grouting applications, including:
- Fastening of anchors
- Waterproofing construction elements
- Grouting foundations
- Coating matt damp and dry substrates
- Layer thicknesses ranging from 10 mm to 200 mm
- Machine grouting
- Grouting of gutters, pillars and support structures
- Grouting of support and railing posts
- Load distribution layer on challenging substrates
- Filling gutters, cavities and gaps (e.g., swimming pool construction)
- Interior and exterior use
- Electrically insulating grouting for railway lines and track construction
- Grouting and embedding crane rails and turbines
- Force-fit bonding of concrete and metal
- Repair of substrates subject to heavy use and exposure
- Grouting guard rails, railing posts and supports in hall and rack construction
- Horizontal applications
- Load distribution layer (minimum 10 mm) on old wooden floorboards, subject to structural assessment
This broad application range makes ASODUR-EV200 a preferred choice for engineers and contractors looking for dependable waterproofing and structural grouting solutions across Pakistan.
Mixing and Application Process
Proper mixing and application are essential to get the full performance out of ASODUR-EV200. The recommended process is:
- Ensure the material temperature is ideally around +15°C during mixing.
- Add the hardener to the resin and mix thoroughly with a stirrer until homogeneous.
- Mixing time is approximately 3 minutes.
- Decant the mixed resin and hardener into a clean bucket.
- Add component C (filler/aggregate) gradually while continuously stirring.
- Continue stirring until a homogeneous, flowable consistency is achieved, making sure to mix from the sides and base of the container. This second mixing stage also takes about 3 minutes.
- Allow the mixed grouting compound to rest briefly before application so trapped air bubbles can escape.
Substrate Preparation
Before application, the substrate must be:
- Dry to matt damp
- Firm
- Load-bearing
- Grippy
- Free of adhesion-inhibiting substances
Cleaned metal surfaces must be coated with ASODUR-EV200 within 4 hours; otherwise, a corrosion protection product should be applied first.
Specialized Applications
Anchor Grouting: Use a drill hole diameter at least 6 mm larger than the anchor diameter, clean thoroughly, fill with ASODUR-EV200 and insert the anchor with rotary movements, removing excess material immediately.
Machine Grouting: Prepare sufficient material to avoid interruptions, grout from one side or corner to allow air to escape and ensure a minimum layer thickness of 10 mm. Layer thicknesses above 200 mm require multiple applications, with subsequent layers applied without priming after approximately 12 hours of curing.
Surface Application: Spread the mixed mortar in strips and level using a height-adjustable squeegee. After waiting 150–180 minutes, smooth the surface with a spatula to eliminate air bubbles.
Slip-Resistant Finish: For a non-slip surface, ASODUR-EV200 can be sprinkled with quartz sand (Ø 0.5–1.0 mm) after approximately 120 minutes, with surplus sand removed after hardening and a top coat sealer applied via roller.
Overcoating and Storage
ASODUR-EV200 can be overcoated within 12 to a maximum of 72 hours (without primer) using compatible ASODUR coating systems. Tools should be cleaned immediately after use with a suitable solvent.
For storage, keep ASODUR-EV200 in a frost-free, cool, dry place at 10–25°C. When stored correctly in its original, unopened container, it has a shelf life of 24 months. Once opened, use the material promptly.
Chemical Durability
ASODUR-EV200 has been tested against a wide range of substances, showing high resistance (up to 14 days exposure) against nitric acid, sulphuric acid, hydrochloric acid, citric acid, sodium hydroxide, ammonia, kerosene, petrol, diesel, ethanol, engine oil, brake fluid, heating oil and concentrated de-icing salt. It also shows moderate resistance to formic acid and lactic acid. This level of chemical durability makes it a strong candidate for industrial flooring and grouting where chemical spillage is a concern.
