Polibrid 705E Elastic Polyurea Polyurethane belongs to polyurethane coatings. This product contains no VOC, is odourless, and does not suffer from pinholing due to solvent evaporation; the resulting film is dense and highly elastic, thereby withstanding shrinkage cracking in concrete applications. Polibrid 705E can be rapidly mixed and applied to the required film thickness using two-component heated airless spray equipment, providing excellent protection in severe corrosive environments. Only companies with qualified applicator status issued by AkzoNobel are permitted to apply Polibrid 705E. Parameters on this page: volume solids 100%, dry film thickness 700–5000 µm (28–200 mils), theoretical spreading rate 0.50 m²/L.

A two-component solvent-free elastic polyurethane coating.
Polibrid 705E can be rapidly mixed and applied to the required film thickness using two-component heated airless spray equipment, providing protection in severe corrosive environments. Embedding geotextile in the coating yields a reinforced composite geomembrane lining.
The Polibrid 705E repair kit can be used for manual repair of small areas of existing Polibrid 705E coatings.
Polibrid 705E is an ultra-high-build, high-elasticity coating designed to protect concrete and steel in chemical, abrasion and high-impact environments; it is ideal for encapsulating rivets, bolts, edges and other surface defects.
The product contains no VOC, is odourless, and does not suffer from pinholes caused by solvent evaporation; the resulting film is dense and highly elastic, thereby withstanding shrinkage cracking in concrete applications.
Polibrid 705E can be used as a lining material resistant to a wide range of chemicals, potable water and wastewater, and can also protect secondary containment areas. Fast delivery, application and other performance characteristics make the product well suited to water & wastewater, mining & minerals and other industrial markets.
Meets the applicable health-effects standards of NSF/ANSI/CAN 600, in accordance with the requirements of NSF/ANSI/CAN 61.

Refer to the recommended working procedure for Polibrid 705E before commencing surface preparation. All steel surfaces to be coated shall be clean, dry and free from contamination. Prior to painting, all surfaces shall be assessed and prepared in accordance with ISO 8504:2000. If grease or oil is present, clean with solvent in accordance with SSPC-SP1.
Abrasive blast cleaning to Sa2½ (ISO 8501-1:2007) or SSPC-SP10. If oxidation occurs between blast cleaning and application of Polibrid 705E, the surface shall be re-blast cleaned to the specified visual standard.
Surface defects exposed during abrasive blasting must be ground, filled or treated by a suitable method.
A surface profile of at least 90 µm is recommended.
Blast cleanliness can be maintained by dehumidification, or an approved temporary primer can be applied.
Concrete: For application to concrete substrates, geotextile is normally considered. For details of surface preparation and application, refer to the recommended application procedure document for Polibrid 705E.

Consult for detailed Polibrid 705E application instructions before use.
Only companies holding a qualified applicator certificate issued by AkzoNobel may apply Polibrid 705E. Such companies must provide documentary evidence prior to application.
The product technical manual provides general guidance on the use of Polibrid 705E. Specific project requirements depend on the service and operating environment of the tank or vessel.
The coating systems recommended by International Paint must always be followed.
When applied to concrete substrates, Polibrid 705E should always be applied during cool weather periods.
When Intercure 200HS is overcoated with Polibrid 705E, the following values must be observed: recoating interval
| Temperature | Minimum; maximum |

| 25°C (77°F) | 6 h 48 h |
| 40°C (104°F) | 3 h 48 h. The product will not fully cure at -4 °C (25 °F) or at a relative humidity above 95%. To obtain optimum anticorrosive performance, the curing temperature should be between 4 °C and 49 °C. |
The temperature of the surface to be coated must be at least 3 °C (5 °F) above the dew point.
Polibrid 705E is sensitive to moisture and must never be applied to damp substrates.
The maximum continuous dry temperature for Polibrid 705E is 82 °C.

The product holds the following specification approval: AS/NZS 4020:2005 approval for tanks less than 1000 mm²/L.
Note: VOC values are typical and for guidance only. They may vary with colour and general production tolerances.
Although the low-molecular-weight reactive additive becomes part of the film when cured under normal ambient conditions, analysis by EPA Method 24 shows that it also affects the VOC value.
Polibrid 705E shall be applied to correctly pretreated substrates. Suitable for the following primers and areas.
For more information on recoating Intercure 200HS, refer to the section on "Product Characteristics".
Intercure 200HS can be used as a concrete primer beneath Polibrid 705E, at a typical spreading rate of 5.5–8 m²/L (225–325 ft²/gal).
