Mapelastic Smart is a two-component mortar based on cementitious binders, fine-grained selected aggregates, special
admixtures and synthetic polymers in water dispersion, blended according to a formula developed in MAPEI’s own
research laboratories.
When the two components are mixed, a blend with a plastic consistency is obtained. It may be applied by brush, by roller
or by spraying with a worm screw rendering machine on both horizontal and vertical surfaces at a thickness of
approximately 2 mm. Due to the content and high quality of the synthetic resins, the hardened layer of Mapelastic Smart
remains constantly flexible under all environmental conditions.
Mapelastic Smart is waterproof and resistant to the penetration of aggressive substances which are present in the
atmosphere, such as carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxide and sulphuric anhydride, and soluble salts such as chlorides and
sulphates, which are present in seawater or in the ground.
Mapelastic Smart has excellent bonding properties on all cementitious, ceramic and marble surfaces as long as they are
sound and sufficiently clean.
These properties, together with its resistance to the deteriorating effect of UV rays, a characteristic of this product, ensure
that structures protected and waterproofed with Mapelastic Smart have a long service life, even if they are located in
areas with particularly rigid climatic conditions, in coastal areas with a saline-rich atmosphere or in industrial areas where
the air is particularly polluted.
Mapelastic Smart meets the requirements defined by EN 1504-9 (“Products and systems for the protection and repair of
concrete structures - Definitions, requirements, quality control and evaluation of conformity - General principles for the
use of products and systems”) and the requirements claimed by EN 1504-2 coating (C) according to the PI, MC and IR
principles (“Protection systems for concrete surfaces”).
