Lava 20 Catalyst is an Accelerating Additive, Used for a Faster Drying and Thicker Coat Application.

  • If you use the full catalyst (0.75 kg Catalyst with 25 kg Lava 20) you can apply a maximum of 3 mm or 118 US mils thick coating in a single coat and will cure within 3 to 5 hours.
  • If no catalyst is used you can apply a maximum of 1.5 mm / 59 mils in one coat and it will dry over 7 to 10 hours.

Lava 20 Catalyst

Lava 20 Catalyst is used with Lava 20 liquid-applied polyurethane waterproofing membrane where faster curing or thicker applications are required.

It is particularly suitable for:

  • Application in low temperatures.

  • Wet-in-wet applications incorporating polyester reinforcement fabric.

  • Applying higher coating thicknesses in a single layer.

Mixing Ratio

Add Lava 20 Catalyst to Lava 20 at a ratio of by weight:

Lava 20 Lava 20 Catalyst
0.18 kg
0.45 kg
0.75 kg

Application Thickness and Cure Time

  • With the full catalyst dosage: A coating up to 3 mm3 thick may be applied in one coat. It will cure within approximately to hours.

  • Without catalyst: Apply a maximum of 1.5 mmin one coat. Drying time is typically 7 to 1 hours.

  • Without catalyst: A two-coat application is recommended, or polyester matting should be incorporated where appropriate.

Advantages

  • Speeds up the curing of Lava 20 polyurethane waterproofing membranes.

  • Allows overcoating after approximately hours, including in colder conditions.

  • Enables thicker wet-in-wet applications with polyester fabric, helping to reduce the risk of bubblings

Mixing

  • If you use the full catalyst (0.75 kg Catalyst with 25 kg Lava 20), you can apply a maximum of 3 mm thick in a single coat and it will cure within 3 to 5 hours.
  • If no catalyst is used, you can apply a maximum of 1.5 mm in one coat and it will dry over 7 to 10 hours.
  • If not using catalyst, we recommend either a two coat application or incorporating matting in this scenario.
