Product description

VERSATILE – FROM THE BASEMENT TO THE ROOF:

– full-surface plastering,
– filling gaps and repairing existing plaster,
– fixing installation boxes,
– filling installation grooves,
– finishing door and window reveals during renovation work.

Suitable for use in rooms with increased humidity, e.g. kitchens, bathrooms, above-ground garages, utility rooms, etc. – and in all types of rooms with humidity up to 85%.

Suitable for use in unheated rooms, e.g. garages, summer houses, etc.

Provides an ideal substrate for:

– ceramic tiles, including large-format and mega-format tiles,

– decorative boards and claddings,

– gypsum and dispersion skim coats,

– wallpaper,

– paints,

– plaster mouldings,

– decorative effects.

Recommended for wall claddings, including large-format ones.

For manual and mechanical application.

Substrate types – all typical building substrates, including concrete, reinforced concrete, ceramic brick, sand-lime brick, aerated concrete.

Properties

Hybrix TECHNOLOGY is an advanced technology combining previously incompatible mineral binders – gypsum and cement. This unique combination of gypsum and cement makes it possible to obtain a new-generation plaster that combines the smoothness and excellent application properties of gypsum-based compounds with the strength and durability of cement. The result is a product with significantly superior working and performance characteristics, designed for demanding interior applications.

Highest strength (≥7 MPa) and hardness (>20 MPa) compared to typical gypsum and cement plasters:

– exceeds the required compressive strength by more than three times (2 MPa) for class B2 gypsum plasters,
– exceeds the required hardness by as much as 8 times (2.5 MPa) compared to the requirements for the highest class of gypsum plasters (B7).

ATLAS NEXUS hybrid plaster is produced as a dry mix based on a hybrid system of mineral binders, selected aggregates and chemical additives that modify the setting process.

Excellent workability and easy application.

Wide range of mixing water, tailored to specific applications – consistency can be adjusted according to the contractor’s needs and individual preferences.

Single-layer application without a scratch coat – substrate preparation consists solely of priming, which shortens the process.

Single-stage mixing – shorter mixing cycle, with no downtime or re-mixing.

A perfectly smooth surface – can also serve as the final coat, faithfully reproducing the appearance of formwork concrete.

Increased hardness and high impact resistance.

Very high strength – recommended for the direct installation of ceramic and stone claddings, as well as plaster mouldings.

Approximately 60% higher adhesion to the substrate than traditional cement plasters and up to 500% higher than gypsum plasters – recommended for large-format tiles

No shrinkage – no micro-cracks during setting, unlike cement-lime plasters.

The recommended maximum thickness of a single coat of plaster should be 40 mm, and 50 mm in areas where the substrate is uneven or where the surface needs to be levelled. The minimum thickness of the applied layer is 5 mm.

Reduced drying time:

– up to 2 days at a thickness of 2 cm,

– 1 day for a thickness of 1 cm,
(data applies to tile bonding – see Table 2).
