Applications
Description
Benefits
External Insulation and Finishing Systems (EIFS)

Aquapas N2090 RDP is used in mortars to affix and finish Exterior Thermal Insulation Composite Systems (ETICS) and External Insulation and Finishing Systems (EIFS). Developed in Europe and used around the world, many governments encourage or mandate the use of advanced thermal insulation to reduce the energy needed to heat or cool buildings.

• Improved tensile strength on substrate, both after dry and wet storage
• Prolonged embedding time
• Prolonged open time

Repair Mortar

Aquapas N2090 RDP improves the substrate adhesion while minimizing abrasion.

• Improved abrasion resistance
• Higher mortar flexibility (lower elastic modulus)
• Improved adhesion on substrate

Skim Coats

Aquapas N2090 RDP provides adhesion force and adhesion resistance.

• Improved adhesion force on substrate
• Hardend mortar surface providing excellent abrasion resistance

Tile Cement
Aquapas N2025 RDP improve the plasticity and adhesion of tile cement and are especially useful in applications where flexural strength is essential, such as floor tiling.

• Improves adhesion strength
• Improves flexural strength
• Improves transverse deformation
• Improves workability
• Low cement set retardation
