| Use advice for data set | Scope: This validated Declaration entitles the holder to use the symbol of Institut Bauen und Umwelt e.V. It exclusively covers the above-named product groups of manufacturing plants in Germany for a period of five years from the date of issue. It is an association EPD, where the product displaying the highest environmental impact in a group was selected for calculating the Life Cycle Assessment. The members of the associations are shown on the association websites. System boundary: The LCA takes consideration of Modules A1/A2/A3, A4, A5 and D: - A1 Manufacture of preliminary products - A2 Transport to the plant - A3 Production incl. provision of energy, manufacturing packaging as well as auxiliaries and consumables and waste treatment) - A4 Transport to the construction site - A5 Installation (disposal of packaging and emissions during installation) - D Credits from incineration of packaging materials and recycling the metal container This therefore involves a Declaration from the "cradle to plant gate with options". |
| Technical purpose of product or process | Application module 4: Screed material and floor screeds MasterTop TC 407W, MasterTop TC 407WAB, MasterTop TC 408W, MasterTop TC 417W and MasterTop TC 442W are 2-component polyurethane sealants – aqueous, solvent-free, resilient, UV-resistant, matt to semi-gloss, colourless or pigmented, low-emission – for use in flooring constructions. |

| General comment on data set | MasterTop TC 407W, MasterTop TC 407WAB, MasterTop TC 408W, MasterTop TC 417W and MasterTop TC 442W are aqueous, solvent-free polyurethane-based reactive resins. The reactive resins are manufactured as single or dual components using polyols (based on mineral oils or from renewable raw materials) and isocyanates. The aqueous systems can be formulated as aqueous dispersions from a resin or curing agent perspective. The products fulfil manifold, often specific, tasks in the construction, furnishing and refurbishment of buildings. Using aqueous and solvent-free polyurethane-based reactive resins decisively improves the usability of buildings and extends their service lives. The product displaying the most environmental impacts was applied as a representative product for calculating the Life Cycle Assessment results. |

| Technology description including background system | The product components formulated are usually mixed from the ingredients in batch mode and filled into the container, whereby quality and environmental standards in accordance with DIN EN ISO 9001:2008-12 and DIN EN ISO 14001 as well as the provisions outlined in the relevant regulations such as the Industrial Safety Regulation or Federal Pollution Control Act are adhered to. Technical data: Screed material and floor screeds The minimum requirements of EN 13813:2003-01 "Screed material and floor screeds – Screed materials – Properties and requirements" must be adhered to. For synthetic resin screed, these are: - Adhesive tensile strength (EN 13892-8): >1.5 N/mm2 - Wear resistance (EN 13892-4): < AR1 - Impact strength (EN ISO 6272): > IR4 - Fire performance (EN 13501-1): min. Efl Other technical characteristics in accordance with the BASF CC Europe AG technical documents / declaration of performance / declaration of conformity Declared unit: The association EPD refers to the declared unit of 1 kg reactive resin product in the mixing ratio required for processing both components. The unit area of MasterTop TC 407W, MasterTop TC 407WAB, MasterTop TC 408W, MasterTop TC 417W and MasterTop TC 442W applied extensively ranges between 90 grams and 120 grams per m2. An LCA for aqueous, solvent-free polyurethane-based reactive resin products was calculated in this EPD. The product with the highest environmental impact in the product groups was declared. |
