⏱️ Application & Storage Details
Curing Time (20 °C): ~1 Hour
At 20 °C, Boydur® M12 fully cures and is traffic-ready in about one hour, minimizing downtime on floors, loading bays, and critical infrastructure. In cooler conditions, allow extra curing time.
Workability / Pot Life: ~25 Minutes
After mixing Components A (resin) and B (hardener), you have roughly 25 minutes of pot life. Continuously mix and place to avoid cold joints. In hot environments, shorten batch sizes or use ice packs to maintain workability.
Shelf Life: 12 Months
Unopened kits stay stable for up to 12 months at 20 °C in a dry, dark place. Rotate stock FIFO and avoid temperature extremes to ensure consistent cure rates and peak performance.
Packaging: 18 kg Set (Component A + B)
Each precision-measured 18 kg kit (2:1 resin-to-hardener) simplifies mixing and suits medium repairs. Custom sizes are available on request.
By following these parameters, you’ll optimize workflow, preserve material integrity, and achieve reliable, high-quality results with Boydur® M12.
⚖️ Component Ratios & Mixing
Two-Component System
Boydur® M12 uses Part A (resin) + Part B (hardener) for rapid-set chemistry and full resistance.
1:1 Weight Ratio
Accurately weigh equal parts (e.g., 9 kg + 9 kg). Even ±2 % errors affect cure and strength.
Mixing (2–3 min)
Combine in a clean, dry vessel.
Mix at 300–400 rpm for 2 min, scrape sides, then mix 30–60 s until uniform.
Equipment & Technique
Drill & Paddle: Fill bucket 60–70 %.
Hand Tools (≤5 kg): Fold thoroughly.
Avoid Bubbles: Keep paddle submerged.
Batch & Pot Life
Limit volume to 25 min pot life at 20 °C. In heat, use smaller batches or chill.
After Mixing
Place immediately. Clean tools with acetone before setting.
Adhering to these steps ensures reliable Boydur® M12 performance.
⚖️ Comparison: MMA vs. Epoxy & Cement Mortars
Speed:
MMA (Boydur® M12): 1 hr to traffic ready
Epoxy: 8–12 hr to full cure
Cement: 24–48 hr to full cure
Durability:
MMA: Highest (impact, abrasion, chemicals)
Epoxy: Good abrasion; lower chemical resistance
Cement: Prone to cracking under heavy loads
Temperature:
MMA: –40 °C to +60 °C
Epoxy: 5 °C to +40 °C
Cement: 10 °C to +30 °C
MMA cures in 1 hr with superior abrasion, chemical and UV resistance, while epoxy and cement require longer closures, offer less chemical defense, and have narrower temperature ranges—making Boydur® M12 the fastest, toughest choice.
📊 Key Performance Metrics
Cure Time: 60 Minutes to Traffic Readiness
At a standard ambient temperature of 20 °C, Boydur® M12 reaches full cure—including chemical cross-linking and load-bearing capacity—in just one hour. This means forklifts, foot traffic, and machinery can resume operations without extended shutdowns, maximizing uptime in busy industrial environments.Compressive Strength: 34 N/mm² at 7 Days
Measured according to ASTM C109/C109M, Boydur® M12 develops over 34 N/mm² (approximately 34 MPa) of compressive strength within the first week. Such high compressive resistance ensures long-term support under heavy loads—ideal for pallet racking zones, loading docks, and heavy-machinery foundations.Flexural Strength: 24 N/mm² at 7 Days
In three-point bend tests (ASTM C348), the mortar achieves at least 24 N/mm² of flexural strength after seven days. This toughness under bending stresses prevents crack propagation and edge chipping in applications like dock edges, runway joints, and expansion-joint repairs.Surface Hardness: Shore D ≥ 75
A Shore D reading of 75 or above indicates a surface hardness on par with premium epoxies. This translates to excellent abrasion resistance under constant forklift traffic or heavy machinery, as well as minimal surface wear from metal wheels or sharp-edged pallets.
By consistently delivering these metrics, Boydur® M12 provides a reliable, repeatable solution for your most demanding flooring challenges—combining rapid turnaround with the structural integrity that high-performance industrial sites require.
🔧 Mixing & Application Guidelines
Surface Prep: Clean oil/grease/debris; dry (<4% moisture); grind or shot-blast to CSP 3–5.
Conditions: 5 °C–30 °C, humidity <80%, maintain 3 °C above dew point.
Mixing: Use a 300–400 rpm mixer with paddle. Weigh 1:1 Part A+Part B, mix 2 min, scrape, then 30–60 s more. Limit batches to 25 min pot life at 20 °C.
Application:
Trowel: Force into defects, smooth finish.
Roller: Back-roll overlays for texture.
Edges: Feather with hand tool or brush.
Aftercare:
Keep traffic off for 60 min at 20 °C.
Clean tools with acetone or MMA cleaner before cure.
Inspect and patch pinholes or low spots.
Following these steps ensures optimal adhesion, durability, and longevity for Boydur® M12 floors.
🌡️ Environmental Resistance
Engineered for extremes, Boydur® M12 delivers lasting performance in both indoor and outdoor environments:
Operating Temperature (–10 °C to +40 °C)
Maintains full structural integrity from freezer aisles to sun-drenched docks—no embrittlement, softening, or bond failure. It also endures frequent freeze-thaw cycles without cracking, making it ideal for unheated warehouses and exposed exterior surfaces.
Chemical Resistance
Formulated to withstand oils, fuels, solvents, aggressive cleaners, mild acids, and alkalis without compromising adhesion or surface hardness—even under repeated spills, washdowns, or chemical-wash environments. Its cross-linked polymer matrix resists swelling or erosion when exposed to harsh industrial fluids.
UV Stability & Weathering
Resists yellowing, chalking, and gloss loss under prolonged sunlight exposure. Ideal for exterior airport aprons, open-air platforms, and rooftop applications without requiring additional UV topcoats. It also withstands rain, snow, and humidity fluctuations, ensuring long-term color and performance retention.
By combining a broad service-temperature window, comprehensive chemical defense, and proven UV and weather resilience, Boydur® M12 ensures minimal maintenance and maximum uptime across the harshest industrial flooring applications.
