Its low viscosity contributes to easy handling excellent substrate wetting and the development of strong bonds to a variety of substrates including damp concrete.
Floor temperature polymer.
Specific grades and types will vary samples available polymers that have a tg less than room temperature are in the rubbery state at room.
Is the temperature at which propagation and depropagation are equal.

Is the temperature below which polymerization cannot occur.
This means that if your floor temperature is 45 degrees or lower coating the floor is a risk.
Selecting polymers flooring systems by.

Temperatures for installing tile.
James hendley general polymers published in plant engineering june 1995 each different resinous flooring system placed on a concrete slab is formulated to withstand a specific type of environment.
Working time cure time viscosity mixing flow air release surface tension and pigment float will all be affected.
This is why most technical data sheets will say not to coat a floor within 5 degrees of the dew point.
As you can see if the air temperature is 75 degrees and the relative humidity of the room is 35 the dew point would be 45 degrees.
Generally the ceiling temperature of a given polymer is correlated to the steric hindrance of the polymer s monomers.
Thus the net rate of polymer growth is zero.
Ceiling temperature is a measure of the tendency of a polymer to revert to its constituent monomers when a polymer is at its ceiling temperature the rate of polymerization and depolymerization of the polymer are equal.
Advantage recommends this material any time a floor has a moisture vapor emission rate greater than 7 pounds 1000 square feet 24 hours or if the floor will be washed down on a regular basis.
Above the ceiling temperature depolymerization will occur and the polymer will revert to its monomer.
