Product catalog summary
Description
ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO is a one-component, thixotropic, polyurethane liquid waterproofing membrane designed for vertical, curved, and sloping surfaces. It is based on elastomeric, hydrophobic polyurethane resins, offering excellent mechanical, chemical, thermal, and weather resistance. The membrane forms a continuous, elastic, waterproof, vapor-permeable layer without seams or joints and adheres well to various substrates, including concrete, cement mortars, metal, wood, and most waterproofing membranes.
Fields of Application
This product is suitable for waterproofing sloping roofs, flat roofs, balconies, gypsum and cement boards, under tile layers in bathrooms and kitchens, under thermal insulation boards, in construction works like highways and tunnels, foundations, old bituminous or EPDM membranes, polyurethane foam, and metal surfaces.

  • Reaction to fire: Euroclass F
  • Service temperature: -40°C to +90°C
Directions for Use
  1. Substrate Preparation: Ensure the substrate is dry (moisture content < 4%) and free of grease, loose particles, and dust. For concrete surfaces, repair cavities and prime with PRIMER-PU 100 or PRIMER-PU 140 depending on moisture content. For smooth, non-absorbent surfaces, use EPOXYPRIMER 500. Metal surfaces should be cleaned and primed with EPOXYCOAT-AC.
  2. Application: Stir ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO slightly before use. Apply by brush or roller in two layers, with the second layer applied crosswise after 8-24 hours. For dense cracks, reinforce with polyester fleece strips. For local crack waterproofing, apply primer and embed polyester fleece strips along the cracks.
  3. Waterproofing Under Tiles: Apply in two layers, reinforcing along joints and wall-floor junctions with polyester fleece strips. Broadcast quartz sand on the final layer while fresh.
Packaging and Storage
Available in metal containers of 1 kg, 6 kg, and 25 kg. Store in original, unopened packaging at +5°C to +35°C, protected from sunlight and frost. Shelf life is 12 months from production date.
Remarks
ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO is not suitable for chemically treated water in swimming pools. Application temperature should be between +5°C and +35°C. Unsealed containers must be used immediately.
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)
The product complies with Directive 2004/42/CE, containing a maximum of 500 g/l VOC.

Technical Datasheet ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO-1

Technical Datasheet Technical data One-component, thixotropic, polyurethane, liquid waterproofing membrane for vertical, curved and sloping surfaces. ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO is based on elastomeric, hydrophobic polyurethane resins of excellent mechanical, chemical, thermal and weather resistance. Thanks to its thixotropy, it is easily applied to vertical, curved and sloping surfaces. The product has additionally the following properties: • Forms a continuous, elastic, waterproof, vapor-permeable layer, without seams or joints. • Features excellent adhesion to various substrates, like concrete, cement mortars, metal, wood and most waterproofing membranes. • Applicable even to irregular substrates. ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO is suitable for waterproofing: • Sloping roofs, flat roofs and balconies, as exposed waterproofing membrane. • Gypsum and cement boards. • Under tile layers in bathrooms, kitchens, balconies and flat roofs, as long as quartz sand is broadcast on its last layer. • Under thermal insulation boards on flat roofs. • In construction works, such as highways, bridge decks, tunnels etc. • Foundations. • Old layers of bituminous or EPDM membranes. • Polyurethane foam. • Metal surfaces. prepolymer Color: white, grey 2.

1. Substrate preparation In general, the substrate must be dry (moisture content < 4%) and free of grease, loose particles, dust, etc. 1.1 Concrete surfaces Any existing cavities in concrete should be repaired in advance. Severe cracks on the substrate must be primed locally and after 2-3 hours (depending the weather conditions) must be sealed with the polyurethane sealants FLEX PU-30 S or FLEX PU-50 S. Concrete and other porous surfaces with moisture content < 4%, should be treated with the primer PRIMER-PU 100, at a consumption of approx. 200 g/m2. Surfaces with moisture content > 4% should be...

b) Local waterproofing of cracks In this case, the primer is applied on the substrate only along the cracks, to a width of 10-12 cm. Two-three hours after priming, the first ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO layer is applied and, while still fresh, a 10 cm wide polyester fleece strip (60 g/m2) is embedded lengthwise. Two extra ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO layers are applied along the cracks, completely covering the reinforcement. Consumption: approximately 200-250 g/m of crack length. c) Waterproofing under tiles ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO is applied by brush or roller in 2 layers. ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO should be locally reinforced...
