- Application Details
- VINNAPAS® 822 HD has only a slight intrinsic odor. It forms a film that is characterized by very low water uptake and good saponification resistance. To achieve optimum weatherability in pasty plasters and facade coatings, only use opacifying pigments in adequate quantities.
- VINNAPAS® 822 HD is highly suited for use as sole binder. The dispersion, however, can also be used to modify inorganic binders, such as cement and lime, improving their tensile adhesive strength, flexural strength, deformability, abrasion resistance and processability.
- In exterior insulation and finish systems (EIFS), VINNAPAS® 822 HD is an ideal binder for adhesive and base coats - for example, by blending the dispersion with Portland cement - and an ideal sole binder for polymer plasters containing opacifying pigments. This means that it is possible to produce the entire EIFS with only one binder.
- By virtue of the low flammability of VINNAPAS® 822 HD, correctly installed EIFS with this composition fall under Fire Class B as per EN 13501-1 (which applies to EIFS).
Processing- For each application, customers should always test the compatibility of VINNAPAS® 822 HD before blending with other polymer dispersions.
- Dispersions with an acidic pH should be adjusted to alkaline before the dispersions are mixed. It is important to ensure that the pH does not fall over time, by (for example) adding calcium carbonate.
- If mixing produces an opaque film, this does not mean incompatibility, but is often due to the resin particles' different refractive indices. Since VINNAPAS® 822 HD has a minimum film-forming temperature of approx. 7°C, the addition of a film-forming agent is normally required. Suitable agents are
- Lusolvan® FBH
- TexanolTM.
- VINNAPAS® 822 HD is stable in the neutral and alkaline pH range. Consequently, it is advisable to first place any acidic additives in a stirring vessel and to adjust their pH to about 8 before adding the dispersion.

- Properties
- VINNAPAS® 822 HD is a dispersion of a vinyl chloride, ethylene and vinyl ester terpolymer.
- VINNAPAS® 822 HD can be used as a binder for coating systems containing an opacifying pigment, such as polymer-modified plasters.
- The special composition and manufacturing technology mean that VINNAPAS® 822 HD can be used to formulate very hydrophobic products.

Storage & Handling
- Shelf Life
- 6 Months
- Storage Information
- When the dispersion is stored in tanks, proper storage conditions must be maintained. The product has a shelf life of 6 months starting from the date of manufacture if stored in the original, unopened containers at temperatures between 5 and 30°C.
- Iron or galvanized-iron equipment and containers are not recommended because the dispersion is slightly acidic. Corrosion may result in discoloration of the dispersion or its blends when further processed. Therefore, the use of containers and equipment made of ceramics, rubberized or enameled materials, appropriately finished stainless steel, or plastic (e.g. rigid PVC, polyethylene or polyester resin) is recommended.
- As polymer dispersions may tend to superficial film formation, skins or lumps may form during storage or transportation. Filtration is therefore recommended prior to utilization of the product.
Preservation for Transport, Storage and further Processing
- The product is adequately preserved during transportation and storage if kept in the original, unopened containers. However, if it is transferred to storage tanks, the dispersion should be protected against microbial attack by adding a suitable preservative package. Measures should also be taken to ensure cleanliness of the tanks and pipes. In unstirred tanks, a layer of preservative-containing water should be sprayed onto the surface of the dispersion to prevent the formation of unwanted skin and possible attack by microorganisms.
- The thickness of this water layer should be < 5 mm for low viscosity dispersions and up to 10-20 mm for high viscosity products. Proper procedures - periodic tank cleaning and sanitization - must be set up in order to prevent microbial attack. Contact your biocide representative/supplier for further plant hygiene recommendations.
- Measures should be taken to ensure that only clean air enters the tank when the dispersion is removed. Finished products manufactured from polymer dispersions usually also require preservation.
- The type and scope of preservation will depend on the raw materials used and the anticipated sources of contamination. The compatibility with other components and the efficacy of the preservative should always be tested in the respective formulation. Preservative manufacturers will be able to advise you about the type and dosage of preservative required.
