EPD: Adhesive capsule for heavy duty concrete anchoring, 1124 kg/m3, Hilti HUS4-MAX and KHC (Hilti AG, Kaufering plant)

The declared products of HUS4-MAX and KHC adhesive capsules are two-component construction adhesives used in combination with mechanical screw anchors in Hilti`s HUS4- MAX and Kwik-X Dual Anchor Action systems. Component A comprises a resin based on methacrylate as well as mineral filler. Component B comprises peroxide hardener, water and mineral filler. During the setting of a mechanical screw anchor in a borehole containing the adhesive capsule, the capsule foil is pierced to allow mixing of the two individual components which subsequently enables the A component to polymerase via radicals released by the B component in a so-called chain reaction. As a result a homogeneously cured mortar with excellent proven mechanical properties, durability and bond strength arises over a very short curing time. Composite foils are used for the HUS4-MAX and the KHC capsules. This kind of packaging serves the following purposes: waste volume reduction, easy storage and transport, less packaging material.
