Pecora Dynapoxy

Pecora Dyna-Poxy™ EP-1200 tamperproof security joint sealant is known for it's outstanding adhesion to similar or dissimilar materials, in particular concrete and metal. It's security properties of high abrasion resistance and “tamperproof” properties make it ideal for high security prisons, hospitals/pyschiatric units, public high traffic areas, animal enclosures, and other volatile areas where tamperproof security is required.

Rigid, Two-Part Epoxy Tamper proof Security Sealant

Features & Overview

Dyna-Poxy™ EP-1200 is a rigid, two-part, high-solids, highmodulus epoxy resin compound.

It is especially designed as a companion or alternative product to Pecora Dynaflex™ urethane security sealant. Also, because of its high compressive strength and non-sag properties, Dyna Poxy™ EP-1200 is used as a structural adhesive for vertical and overhead bonding, grouting, and for bolt embedment.

Applications and Uses

Change-in-plane expansion and contraction joints: floor-to-wall, head-of-wall, inside corners
Fixture perimeters: lights, mirrors, sinks
Door perimeters: frame-to-wall, gypsum, concrete block
Window perimeters: frame-to-wall, gypsum, concrete block
Glazing: glass-to-frame / laminated Lexan- or plexiglass-to-frame
Exterior expansion joints in building facades: masonry, pre-cast, block, concrete
Interior seams: steel, stainless steel, masonry, window frames, fixture

Technical Data

Applicable Standards: Dynapoxy™ EP-1200 meets or exceeds ASTM C 881, Type I and III, Grade 3, Classes B & C.

Joint Design: Security sealants used in non-moving joints do not have a require ment related to width to depth configura tions. When installing security sealants in nonmoving joints, tamper resistance and tamper proof properties are improved when a greater volume of sealant is installed in the joint. In general, security sealants should be applied to a greater depth than typically recommended for a moving or dynamic joint. In joints greater than 1.5” in width, consult Pecora Technical Services for more specific guidelines

Limitations

Dynapoxy™ EP-1200 should not be used in active joints or in areas where it may come into contact with food. It should not be subjected to harsh chemicals such as acids or solvents and should not be applied in concrete joints less than 30-days old

On below-grade applications.
If rain is expected within 24 hours of application.
On horizontal traffic bearing surfaces.
In areas of continuous immersion.
On frozen or frost covered surfaces or at temperatures at or below 40°F (4°C) or when temperatures are expected to drop below 40°F (4°C) within 24 hours after application.
Where there may be hydrostatic water transfer from the backside of the substrate.
On improperly sealed substrates that are subject to rising dampness or migrating moisture.
Over active joints or cracks in concrete or masonry. WeatherClad Elastomeric Acrylic Wall Coating is recommended for these conditions.

Applications and Uses

In correctional facilities and detention centers, safeguards are needed to prevent incarcerated persons from using construction materials in ways that hurt themselves or others. Sealant has been “picked out” to be used as weapons, to expose joints for hiding contraband and weapons, and even to be smoked. All interior joints and seams within spaces occupied by unsupervised incarcerated persons should be sealed with a tamperproof sealant such as Pecora Dynapoxy EP-1200. Common areas such as day rooms, exercise rooms, and cafeterias (where supervision is present) should be sealed with a tamper resistant sealant such as Pecora Dynaflex SC or Pecora Dynaflex.

Pecora Dynaflex SC is USDA-approved for use in food processing and preparation areas, although direct contact with food is not recommended. Exterior spaces (where residents spend extended periods of time) should also be considered for sealing to a tamper resistant specification. Exterior joints that are accessible from grade level should be designed with application of tamper resistant sealants of Class 12.5 such as Pecora Dynaflex or Pecora Dynaflex SC in mind. All other expansion joints higher than ten feet above grade level can be sealed with traditional exterior expansion joint sealants such as Pecora Dynatrol II

In behavioral health units it is imperative for patients to be restricted from access to materials that could be used to injure themselves or others. Patient safety, liability mitigation, as well as costs associated with vandalism, require the properties associated with security sealants. All interior joints in areas where patients might be spending time in isolation should be specified with a tamperproof sealant such as Pecora Dynapoxy EP-1200. Common areas such as day rooms, exercise rooms, and cafeterias should be sealed with a tamper resistant sealant such as Pecora Dynaflex SC or Pecora Dynaflex. Pecora

Dynaflex SC is USDA-approved for use in food processing and preparation areas, although direct contact with food is not recommended. Exterior space (where residents spend extended periods of time) should also be considered for sealing to a tamper resistant specification. Exterior applications are designed around tamper resistant sealants of class 12.5 such as Pecora Dynaflex or Pecora Dynaflex SC. All other expansion joints higher than ten feet above grade level can be sealed with traditional exterior expansion joint sealants such as Pecora Dynatrol II.

Animals, especially primates, will occasionally attempt to remove sealants and ingest them, causing serious illness. To ensure the health of the animals and the safety of spectators, security sealants are used for wet glazing viewing panels on the interior of animal enclosures. Tamperproof materials such as Pecora Dynapoxy EP-1200 are specified in this application. Traditional or tamper resistant sealants such as Pecora Dynaflex SC or Pecora Dynaflex are specified on exterior wet glazing to ensure any thermal movement is accommodated.
