Description
RMP Silcrete™ TSL
USE
RMP Silcrete™ TSL is a Thin Skin Lining (TSL) designed specifically for the consolidation of stressed rock structures associated with mining to prevent unravelling of strata and the associated risks presented from falling ground. It also has potential for use as a fire retardant coating for various other substrates.
Typical Applications
- Rock support in tunnels and mines
- Suitable for lateral work and in shafts
- Slope stabilisation
- Grouting applications
- Soil stabilisation in poor ground conditions
- Consolidation
- Mesh replacement
- Ground support for areas with difficult access
- Assists with hard rock strain bursting
- Pillars/rib support
- Rehabilitation of collapsed areas
- Long wall installation and recovery
- Portal construction
- Protection from weathering
- Ventilation stoppings
- Ventilation improvement by reduced surface friction
- Sealing against goaf ventilation to avoid spontaneous combustion.
FEATURES
- High tensile strength: capable of holding together under extreme loading conditions
- High impact strength
- Compressive strength: approximately 10 MPa after 30 minutes
- Outstanding adhesion: bonds to all (rock, coal, concrete) surfaces
- Fire Retardant
- Cream colour: for good light reflectance
- Water based: clean up with water
- Solvent free: therefore no flammable volatiles
- No raw material handling: no requirement to be handled other than connecting hoses to the material containers, drums or 1000 litre IBC’s
- No batch mixing: no cement or aggregates or polymer additives required
- Applied at 5-10 mm thickness: can be applied by hand gun or robotic spray apparatus
