The ideal working temperature for both the surface onto which the resin is applied as well as the resin is 20° C. The pot life of the mixture at 20°C is approx. 30 minutes. The final material properties are achieved after 3-5 days, depending on temperature. At lower working temperatures (minimum 10° C), the pot life and curing time are extended. However, the pot life is highly dependant on the amount of the resin in the mixing container. When the working temperature is higher and a large quantity is being mixed the pot life will shorten due to the development of internal heat. Post cure at 50°C for 24 hours increases the chemical resistance and strength. When used as a binder for epoxy mortar, approx. 1:7 parts by weight (or approx. 1:3 parts by volume) quartz sand or powder is added to the mixed BK Resin. EPOXY BK can be pigmented by adding 1-5 % by weight of E.P. opaque pigment paste. A more transparent color can be obtained by adding smaller amount of pigment paste.
