IZOZENĀ® FLEX PRO AK-9
IZOZEN FLEX PRO AK-9 is a high-performance, cement-based tile adhesive designed for wall and floor applications. It delivers excellent initial and final bonding strength, strong moisture resistance, and reliable durability even in hot and tropical climates. Certified according to EN 12004 and classified as a C1 adhesive with CE marking.
Main Uses
- Suitable for fixing wall and floor tiles to various substrates, including concrete, plaster, and brickwork.
- Ideal for both interior and exterior applications, even under challenging climate conditions.
- Perfect for residential, commercial, and industrial projects requiring strong adhesion.
- Recommended for kitchens, bathrooms, outdoor areas, terraces, and heavy-use spaces.
Elastification
In cases where additional adhesion or flexibility is required, such as unstable substrates subject to vibration or expansion/contraction effects (e.g.
gypsum boards, chipboards, heated floors, terraces, balconies, etc.), it is necessary to add up to 1.00-2.50 Litters of IZOZEN FLEX PRO LATEX
to 20 kg of IZOZEN FLEX PRO AK-9, plus the amount of water needed to obtain the desired workability, so that the tile adhesive becomes more
f lexible.
Directions for Use
1. Substrate
The surface to be overlaid must be clean, free ofĀ dust, grease, paint, loose material, etc. It is recommended that the substrate be dampened prior to application.
2. Application
IZOZEN FLEX PRO AK-9 is gradually added to water under continuous stirring, until a uniform paste is formed. A low-speed mixer is recommended for mixing. The mixture should be left for approx. 5 minutes to stand and should be stirred slightly again. The tile adhesive should be spread and ācombedā on the substrate using a notched trowel, in order to be uniformly applied over the entire surface. The tiles should be firmly pressed to the desired position. The applied mixture must be covered with tiles. within 20 minutes to avoid āskinā formation, i.e. before the adhesive film starts setting.
