Morcemcril^®

Technical Caracteristics

Product based on acrylic resin, mineral pigments, and organic and inorganic additives.

Advantages and Uses

• Product approved by EAD-040083-00-0404- DITE No. 07/0054. Anti-mould
• Textures: thick, normal, and thin weather resistant
• Permeable to water vapour, allowing the substrate to breathe.
• Easy and quick to apply.
• Smooth, float, and drop finish.
• Non-flammable.
• Suitable for most substrates.
• Resistant to ageing, city-environments, and UV rays resistant.
• Excellent adhesion on traditional construction substrates.
• Washable.

This product has a protection against fungus, mould and algae which provides a long-lasting preventive and retardant effect although not permanent. The duration of this affectation depends on the exposure to humidity and the concentration of spores in the area, which create especially favourable conditions for the growth of micro-organisms. Therefore, periodic preventive maintenance treatment is recommended.

Suitable Substrates

• Compatible with cement mortar substrates, concrete, one-coat mortar, gypsum, plasterboard and painted substrates.
• Not compatible with fresh lime plasters, resins or varnishes, distemper paints, lime, or silicate paints. Traditerm external thermal insulation system prepared for the execution of the final decorative finish.
• Substrates must be clean, free from dust, greases, old paint, oils, fungus, mould, and any other kind of product.
• On surfaces with loose particles, apply FIJAMOR primer beforehand. Apply a FONDO MORCEMCRIL coat before applying MORCEMCRIL.

Application Procedure

• Shake until getting a perfect mixture.
• The product is already ready to use, and it should be applied with a stainless-steel trowel or gun.
• If applied manually, you can adjust its consistency and workability by adding water, up to a maximum of 250 ml per 25 kg container.
• If applied with a spray gun, you can add water up to a maximum of 1 litre per 25 kg container to adjust the consistency and workability. This adjustment will depend on the pump to be used.
• Stir the product just before applying it.
• In the case of manual application, spread the product evenly using a steel trowel across the entire surface, removing any excess material above the aggregate thickness.
• Once the product has been spread over the substrate and has lost its tackiness, proceed to float the material.
• The surface shall be floated using a plastic trowel or a polyurethane float, floating regularly preferably with the infinite movement technique to obtain an even textured surface.
• Work evenly and uninterruptedly.
• The choice of tool affects the roughness and structure of the surface, so the same type should always be used on a construction site.
• To obtain a uniform structure, it is crucial to make sure that the same person structures adjacent surfaces.
• Due to the natural aggregates and granules in the product, slight colour variations between different batches may occur.
• Adjacent surfaces should use product from the same batch to ensure consistency.
• For mechanical spraying of the product, the nozzle diameter should be chosen based on the product's particle size distribution.
• During spraying, exceptional care must be taken to apply the product evenly, avoiding overlaps, joints, and uneven loading due to application.
• Cleaning of the tools will be conducted with abundant water immediately after being used. Any dried particles should be removed with solvents such as turpentine.

Recommendations

• Do not apply under 5ºC nor above 30ºC, under direct sun light, rain, or healing risk.
• Do not apply on floors or inclined surfaces where the exposed face is facing upwards.
• Protect the upper surfaces of the render from the penetration of rainwater.
• To ensure colour uniformity, it is recommended to request the total amount of product needed in a single supply. In any case, do not mix different manufacturing batches in one working area.
• In machine spraying application, maintain consistent pressure, angle of projection, and distance from the substrate to avoid changes in the final appearance of the product.
• In machine spraying application, it is recommended to apply multiple coats until achieving the desired coverage and thickness.
• Pay special attention to environmental temperature changes, humidity, wind, etc. These factors influence the drying process and the workability of the product, potentially causing differences in the final appearance of the application.
• Protect the surrounding area of the surface to be applied and clean any splashes with water before the product dries or hardens.

Technical data

Notas

The information and instructions in this datasheet are based on our current tests and technical knowledge. They are intended as general guidance and do not constitute a binding commitment by PIDILITEPUMA MEA CHEMICALS LLC. It is the sole responsibility of the user to verify, prior to use, that the product is suitable for the intended application and to ensure that it is applied correctly and in accordance with applicable regulations and good industry practice.

PIDILITEPUMA MEA CHEMICALS LLC cannot control how its products are applied on site throughout the entire project and therefore cannot accept responsibility for their application by contractors or other parties involved in the execution of the work. Support visits to the jobsite by our technical staff do not change that. Our responsibility is limited exclusively to defects that can be directly attributed to the supplied products, whether used individually or as part of a system, caused by manufacturing defects.

It is the responsibility of the project designer, site manager, contractor, or other relevant professionals to ensure that the selected products are appropriate for the specific project, taking into account their properties, the substrate, site conditions, and any existing issues.

In the event of a claim, the original packaging must be provided to ensure proper product traceability.

Any performance values stated for PIDILITEPUMA MEA CHEMICALS LLC products or construction solutions, whether in UNE standards or other applicable standards, are based solely on the specific test conditions defined in those standards (such as substrate type, temperature, and humidity). These values may not apply to situations where products are tested or used under different conditions.
