⏱️ Application & Storage Details

Curing Time (20 °C): ~1 Hour
At 20 °C, Boydur® M12 fully cures and becomes traffic-ready in approximately one hour, minimizing downtime on industrial floors, loading bays, and critical infrastructure. In cooler conditions, allow additional curing time.

Workability / Pot Life: ~25 Minutes
After mixing Component A (resin) and Component B (hardener), the pot life is around 25 minutes. Continuously mix and place to prevent cold joints. In hot environments, reduce batch sizes or use cooling measures to maintain workability.

Shelf Life: 12 Months
Unopened kits remain stable for up to 12 months at 20 °C when stored in a dry, dark location. Rotate stock (FIFO) and avoid temperature extremes to ensure consistent curing and performance.

Packaging: 18 kg Set (Component A + B)
Each precision-measured 18 kg kit (2:1 resin-to-hardener ratio) simplifies mixing and suits medium-sized repairs. Custom packaging options are available upon request.

By following these parameters, you ensure an optimized workflow, preserve material integrity, and achieve reliable, high-quality results with Boydur® M12.

⚖️ Component Ratios & Mixing

Two-Component System
Boydur® M12 operates as a dual-component MMA system, combining Part A (resin) and Part B (hardener) to achieve rapid-setting performance and full chemical resistance.

1:1 Weight Ratio
Precisely weigh equal parts (e.g., 9 kg + 9 kg). Even small deviations of ±2% can negatively affect curing speed and mechanical strength.

Mixing (2–3 Minutes)

  1. Combine both components in a clean, dry mixing vessel.
  2. Mix mechanically at 300–400 rpm for 2 minutes, scraping the sides, then continue mixing for another 30–60 seconds until the blend is uniform.

Equipment & Technique

  • Drill & Paddle: Fill the bucket to 60–70% capacity for efficient mixing.
  • Hand Tools (≤5 kg): Fold manually and mix thoroughly for smaller quantities.
  • Avoid Bubbles: Keep the paddle fully submerged during mixing to prevent air entrapment.

Batch & Pot Life
Limit each batch to fit within the 25-minute p

⚖️ Comparison: MMA vs. Epoxy & Cement Mortars

  • Speed:
    • MMA (Boydur® M12): Traffic-ready in ~1 hour
    • Epoxy: Requires 8–12 hours for full cure
    • Cement: Requires 24–48 hours for full cure
  • Durability:
    • MMA: Highest resistance to impact, abrasion, and chemicals
    • Epoxy: Good abrasion resistance but lower chemical tolerance
    • Cement: Prone to cracking and wear under heavy loads
  • Temperature Range:

Key performance metrics at a glance for Boydur® M12 rapid-set industrial flooring.

📊 Key Performance Metrics

  • Cure Time: 60 Minutes to Traffic Readiness
    At a standard ambient temperature of 20 °C, Boydur® M12 reaches full cure—including complete chemical cross-linking and load-bearing capacity—within just one hour. This enables forklifts, foot traffic, and machinery to resume operations quickly, minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity in busy industrial environments.
  • Compressive Strength: 34 N/mm² at 7 Days
    Tested in accordance with ASTM C109/C109M, Boydur® M12 develops over 34 N/mm² (≈ 34 MPa) compressive strength within the first week. This ensures long-term stability under heavy loads—ideal for pallet racking zones, loading docks, and high-traffic industrial floors.
  • Flexural Strength: 24 N/mm² at 7 Days
    In three-point bend tests (ASTM C348), the mortar achieves a minimum of 24 N/mm² flexural strength after seven days. This resilience against bending and impact stresses prevents crack propagation and edge chipping in demanding areas such as dock edges, runway joints, and expansion-joint repairs.
  • Surface Hardness: Shore D ≥ 75
    A Shore D hardness rating of 75 or higher provides exceptional abrasion resistance, comparable to premium epoxies. The surface maintains durability against constant fork

🔧 Mixing & Application Guidelines

  • Surface Preparation: Clean all oil, grease, and debris from the substrate. Ensure the surface is dry (<4% moisture) and mechanically prepared—grind or shot-blast to achieve a Concrete Surface Profile (CSP) 3–5.
  • Environmental Conditions: Apply between +5 °C and +30 °C with relative humidity below 80%. Maintain at least 3 °C above the dew point to prevent surface condensation.
  • Mixing: Use a low-speed mixer (300–400 rpm) fitted with a spiral paddle. Weigh Part A + Part B in a 1:1 ratio, mix for 2 minutes, scrape vessel sides, then continue mixing for an additional 30–60 seconds until homogeneous. Limit batch size to match the 25-minute pot life at 20 °C.
  • Application:
    • Trowel: Force material into defects and smooth the surface to the desired finish.
    • Roller: Back-roll overlays to achieve a uniform texture.
    • Edges: Feather edges using a hand tool or brush for seamless transitions.
  • Aftercare:
    • Restrict foot or vehicle traffic for at least 60 minutes at 20 °C.
    • Clean tools immediately after use with acetone or an MMA-compatible cleaner.
    • Inspect the surface post-cure and patch any pinholes or low spots.

Following these detailed procedures ensures optimal adhesion, durability, and long-term performance of Boydur® M12 flooring systems under even the most demanding conditions.

🌡️ Environmental Resistance

Engineered for extreme conditions, Boydur® M12 delivers long-lasting performance in both indoor and outdoor environments, maintaining its integrity across diverse industrial and climatic conditions.

Operating Temperature (–10 °C to +40 °C)
Retains full structural stability from freezer aisles to sun-exposed loading docks, without embrittlement, softening, or bond failure. It endures frequent freeze–thaw cycles without cracking, making it ideal for unheated warehouses and exposed exterior areas.

Chemical Resistance
Formulated to withstand oils, fuels, solvents, aggressive cleaners, mild acids, and alkalis without compromising adhesion or surface hardness—even under repeated spills or chemical washdowns. Its cross-linked polymer matrix prevents swelling or erosion, ensuring durability in harsh industrial and maintenance environments.

UV Stability & Weathering
Resists yellowing, chalking, and gloss loss under prolonged sunlight exposure. Ideal for airport aprons, open-air platforms, and rooftop applications without the need for additional UV topcoats. It also withstands rain, snow, and humidity fluctuations, preserving color and surface performance over time.

By combining a broad service-temperature window, comprehensive chemical defense, and UV stability, Boydur® M12 delivers maximum uptime and minimal maintenance across the most demanding industrial flooring applications.

Boydur® M12 delivers industrial-grade performance where timing and strength matter most. Built to support your toughest flooring challenges with confidence and consistency.
