Product catalog summary
General Description
DEGADUR® 151 and DEGADUR® 165 are methacrylic resins used for formulating floor coatings. These coatings cure rapidly, even at temperatures as low as -30°C, minimizing operational downtime. They provide robust, seamless surfaces resistant to chemicals like acids and alkalis, with customizable mechanical strength and slip resistance. Suitable for various substrates, including concrete and metal, these coatings can be applied indoors and outdoors.

Decorative Systems for Dry Areas
DEGADUR® 151, sealed with DEGADUR® 165, is ideal for decorative indoor surfaces, offering easy cleaning and high resistance to chemicals and tire abrasion.

Summary of Benefits
  • Rapid curing allows use after two hours.
  • Applicable at temperatures from -30°C to +35°C.
  • Good wear and chemical resistance.
  • Seamless, water-tight application.
  • Compatible with old DEGADUR® substrates.

Custom-Tailored System Solutions
  • High compressive strength and resistance to gasoline, oil, and tire marks.
  • Suitable for substrates with high mechanical strength.

Fields of Application
  • Storage rooms, salesrooms, exhibition rooms.
  • Bakeries, cafés, beverage stores.
  • Laboratories, pharmaceutical industry.
  • Printing shops, distributing centers, workshops.
  • Discothèques, gyms, changing rooms.
  • Zoo enclosures, museums, banks.

Substrate Composition
Proper substrate preparation is crucial for coating durability. Surfaces must be solid, dry, and free from contaminants. Shot blasting or mechanical removal is recommended for preparation, with a pull-off strength of at least 1.5 N/m².

Maximum Substrate Humidity
Humidity levels vary by substrate type, with specific percentages outlined for reinforced concrete, pumice concrete, and other materials.

Primer Application
DEGADUR® B 71 or DEGADUR® 112 primers are mixed with BPO hardener and applied in thin layers. Highly absorbent substrates require two primer coats.

Coating Application
DEGADUR® 151 is used for trowel-smoothed coatings of 4–6 mm thickness, offering high resistance to abrasion, gasoline, and oil. Material consumption is approximately 1.8 kg/m² per mm layer thickness.

Seal Coat Application
An intermediate primer layer is necessary before applying DEGADUR® 165 seal coat. Proper application ensures slip resistance and prevents yellowing.

Properties of Coating System
  • Tensile strength: 8.8 MPa
  • Compressive strength: 44 MPa
  • Elongation at break: 0.8%
  • Elastic modulus: 2100 MPa
  • Tensile bond strength on concrete: 4.3 MPa
  • Impact strength: 4 Nm
  • Wear resistance: 10 μm
  • Reaction to fire: Class Efl
  • Physiological safety for food processing.

DEGADUR® 151 AND DEGADUR® 165-1

DEGADUR® 151 AND DEGADUR® 165 FOR HIGH MECHANICAL LOAD-BEARING INDUSTRIAL AND COMMERCIAL FLOORS General Description Under the DEGADUR® trademark, Röhm produces rapidly curing methacrylic resins that are used to formulate floor coatings, with the addition of fillers and pigments. Their rapid curing (even at temperatures as low as minus 30˚C) ensures very short interruptions in routine operations. The coatings can be used to provide smooth or textured surfaces. Seamless DEGADUR® industrial floor coatings are robust and resistant to many conventional chemicals such as acids and alkalis. The degree of mechanical strength and slip resistance can be precisely adjusted according to the specific requirements or relevant industrial regulations. Individual wishes can be met in terms of color or design. DEGADUR® coating systems can generally be applied on concrete and metal substrates, asphalt, indoor and outdoor areas as well as in wet and dry rooms. Decorative systems for dry areas Coatings based on DEGADUR® 151, sealed with DEGADUR® 165, are especially suitable for easy-to-clean, decorative indoor surfaces on high-quality substrates. The DEGADUR® 165 seal coat shows particularly good resistance to chemicals and tire abrasion. Summary of benefits • Rapid curing - floor can be used and exposed to normal loads after two hours, which means minimal downtimes • Coating possible at ambient temperatures of -30˚C to +35 ˚C • Good wear resistance • Seamless and water-tight • Good chemical resistance to acids, alkalis and many cleaning agents • New DEGADUR® coatings can be applied to old DEGADUR® substrates DEGADUR® 151/165 – for custom-tailored system solutions • Extremely hard-wearing with high compressive strength • High resistance to gasoline and oil • Good resistance to tire marks • For application on substrates with high mechanical strength Fields of application • Storage rooms • Salesrooms and exhibition rooms • Bakeries, cafés, beverage stores • Laboratories, pharmaceutical industry • Printing shops, distributing centers, workshops • Discothèques, gyms • Changing

DEGADUR® 151 AND DEGADUR® 165-2

Substrate Composition The substrate must be correctly prepared for coating as described below. The primer must be allowed to cure properly on the substrate in order to guarantee a durable bond. This applies equally to concrete, asphalt and metal substrates. The surfaces must be solid, dry, offer good grip and be capable of bearing loads. They must be free from laitance, loose particles, flakiness and substances like grease, oil, rubber fines, paint residues or other contaminants that would prevent bonding. The best floor preparation is usually achieved by means of shot blasting or mechanical...

The mixture for practical purposes is applied using a pin rake in the desired layer thickness and then smoothed with a suitable smoothing trowel. Seal Coat With trowel-smoothed colored sand coatings and smooth coatings based on DEGADUR® 151, it is essential to apply an intermediate primer layer of DEGADUR® 112 before applying the DEGADUR® 165 seal coat. The entire quantity of DEGADUR® 165 mixed with BPO powder is poured onto the coating, distributed roughly using a serrated rubber blade and then evenly applied with a mohair roller (pile 4 mm).
