Stopgap F77 Resin COSHH Assessment Form

A three-page COSHH Assessment form for Stopgap F77 Resin, with some sample text reading:

Fire details: Extinguish with foam, carbon dioxide or dry powder. Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire. Toxic gases/vapours/fumes of: Oxides of carbon. Oxides of nitrogen. Hazardous combustion products: Oxides of carbon. Oxides of nitrogen. Firefighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full face-piece in positive pressure mode. Clothing for firefighters (including helmets, protective boots and gloves) conforming to European standard EN 469 will provide a basic level of protection for chemical incidents.

Stopgap F77 is an advanced, high-performance waterproof surface membrane composed of a sophisticated two-part, solvent-free epoxy resin system. Upon application, it cures to form a robust waterproof barrier, effectively preventing moisture issues such as rising damp and residual moisture from construction processes, thereby protecting subsequent floor coverings from potential damage.

This innovative product is meticulously formulated without the use of solvents, ensuring it is both environmentally friendly and safe for applicators and end-users. The application process involves the straightforward mixing of the two components, which initiates the curing reaction essential for the membrane's performance.

To facilitate visual monitoring of application uniformity and thorough coverage, the resin is pigmented black. This unique pigmentation aids in the application process, ensuring that no areas are overlooked during installation.

Stopgap F77 is versatile and can be applied to various surfaces, including concrete substrates and sand/cement screeds, making it suitable for a wide range of flooring projects. Importantly, it can be applied directly over underfloor heating screeds, provided appropriate moisture readings are taken, thereby ensuring compatibility and efficiency.

This waterproofing system excels in isolating moisture, functioning effectively at relative humidity levels up to 98%. Its quick-setting properties allow for the early installation of floor coverings, making it particularly advantageous in fast-track building projects where time is critical.

A single coat of Stopgap F77 not only provides a reliable waterproof surface but also contributes to the durability and longevity of the flooring system, making it an essential component in modern construction and renovation.
