3M Stain Resistant Additive and Sealer SRC-220 Operating instructions

Brand: 3M

Model: Stain Resistant Additive and Sealer SRC-220

Type: Operating instructions

Product Description

™

Stain Resistant Additive SRC-220 is an aqueous

fluorinated polyurethane dispersion (PUD) that, when

formulated as a penetrating sealer, adds both stain resistance

and stain release, as well as water and oil repellency

characteristics to porous surfaces. The SRC-220 concentrate

can be used as a stand-alone product or can be incorporated

as an additive into many general coating formulations, and to

various construction materials. This product is suitable for both

indoor and outdoor use.

Benets

• Provides stain-resistance and easy cleaning of surfaces

such as concrete, marble, ceramic tile, wood and other

hard surfaces

• Provides both oil and water resistance to stains such as

motor oil, transmission uid, antifreeze, coee, wine,

mustard, ketchup, etc.

• 3M laboratory testing indicates most stains can be easily

removed up to 24 hours after spill with mild cleaning

solutions, e.g., soap/water, and with minimal eort

The images at right show the performance of 3M stain

resistant coating SRC-220 on treated and non-treated

surfaces.

Figure 1 is an image of redwood and pine wood samples.

The set on the left is untreated and the set on the right is

treated with a prototype formulation containing the

SRC-220 material.

Figure 2 shows a concrete sample. The left side is untreated

and the right side is treated using the same prototype

formula containing SRC-220 as used on the wood samples

in Figure 1.

This picture was taken after the stains remained on the wood

surface for 24 hours prior to being wiped with a wet paper towel.

Performance

• To obtain optimum performance from 3M

™

Stain Resistant

Additive SRC-220, some solvent may be required in the

formulation.* The purpose of the solvent is to act as a

coalescent or lm-forming agent. This helps the product

form a uniform protective lm over the substrate.

• VOC (volatile organic compound) regulations may inuence

the amount of solvent used in SRC-220 formulations.

• Because SRC-220 is a concentrate in water, it is not

compatible with hydrocarbon type solvents (e.g., hexane,

heptane, mineral spirits, etc.).

*Note: When using solvents, be sure to read and follow the

manufacturer’s precautions and directions for use.

SRC-220 Initial Prototype Formula

Suggestions

* Dipropylene Glycol mono-Methyl Ether or Dipropylene Glycol Dimethyl Ether

Objective: Prepare a 100g sample of SRC-220 in water/DPM

at 4% active solids.

Procedure: Weigh out 8.7g of DPM (or DMM) into a glass

or plastic container. While mixing, add SRC-220 concentrate

followed by DI water. Mix until uniform (10-15 minutes).

The final mixture should be slightly opaque to clear.

* Dipropylene Glycol mono-Methyl Ether or Dipropylene Glycol Dimethyl Ether

Objective: Prepare a 100g sample of SRC-220 at 2% active

solids.

Procedure: Weigh out 7.3g of DPM (or DMM) and 79.4g

of IPA into a glass or plastic container. While mixing, add the

SRC-220 concentrate. Mix until uniform (10-15 minutes).

The final mixture should be a clear solution.

Objective: Prepare a 100g sample of SRC-220 added to

existing coating at 1% active solids.

Procedure: Weigh out 93.3g of paint/sealer/varnish into a

glass or plastic container. While mixing, add the SRC-220

concentrate. Mix until uniform. Significant mixing may be

required if the original viscosity is high (20-30 minutes).

Final color will depend on the original coating.

* Dipropylene Glycol mono-Methyl Ether or Dipropylene Glycol Dimethyl Ether

Objective: Prepare a 100g sample of SRC-220 (4.5 % solids)

with acrylic resin.

Procedure: Weigh out 3g of DPM (or DMM) into a glass

or plastic container. While mixing, add the SRC-220

concentrate followed by Rhoplex CS-4000 (10g) and

DI water. Once homogeneous, add biocide and/or

UV stabilizer. Mix until uniform (10-15 minutes).

The final mixture should be chalky white.
