Floor paint and water selection: all kinds of classifications to understand.

Floor paint due to different functions can have different uses, mainly decorative floor paint, heavy anti-corrosion floor paint, heavy-duty floor paint and so on. By a variety of different substances by mixing, dispersion and many other production processes manufacturing and composition, floor paint with bright, true, beautiful, wear-resistant, waterproof, anti-corrosion and so on.
relative to oily flooring paint, water-based floor paint in recent years has received more development and attention due to environmental protection and better tolerance for the

. There are many kinds of water-based coatings on the market, and consumers need to understand various classifications and their characteristics when choosing.
A first category
is acrylic as the main component of the water-based floor paint, the main feature is good adhesion, outdoor weather resistance is better, but wear resistance and chemical resistance is poor, paint film hardness is softer, pencil test for HB, poor plumpness, comprehensive performance in general, construction prone to defects. Because of its low cost and low technical content, it is the main product that most water-based coating enterprises bring to market. The advantage is that it is cheap.
A second category
is acrylic and polyurethane as the main components of the water-based floor paint, its characteristics in addition to adhering to the characteristics of acrylic paint, but also combined with the characteristics of polyurethane wear resistance, some enterprises marked as water-based polyester paint. The hardness of the paint film is better, the pencil method test is 1H, and the plumpness is better.
Seth class
is polyurethane water-based floor paint, its comprehensive performance is superior, high fullness, paint film hardness can reach 1.5-2H, wear resistance performance even exceeds oily paint, service life, color deployment have obvious advantages. The price is relatively expensive at present.
Fest class
is water-based epoxy floor paint, the substrate has a very high adhesion, cured coating film corrosion resistance, excellent chemical resistance, coating film shrinkage is small, high hardness, good wear resistance, electrical insulation performance is excellent.
Fest category
is some pseudo-water-based floor paint, the use of curing agents or chemicals, such as "hardener", "paint film enhancer", "special dilution water" and so on, some can also be diluted with water, but the solvent content is very high, more harmful to the human body, some even more toxic than oily paint, and some enterprises marked as water-based polyester paint. It's hard for the average consumer to tell.
Among them, water-based epoxy flooring paint in recent years has been greatly developed, in practice to get more and more use, its main features are as follows:
water as a dispersion medium, does not contain toluene, xylene and other volatile organic solvents, will not cause environmental pollution, no fire hazards, meet the current environmental requirements, of course, can also add a small amount of air pollutants such as methanol ether solvents to improve water-based epoxy coating film.
can be constructed and cured in a humid environment, with reasonable curing time, to ensure that the coating film has a high cross-link density.
operation performance is good, construction tools can be washed directly with water, can be reused, paint preparation and construction operation is safe and convenient.
the coating film after curing, the texture is better, and has better anti-corrosion performance and one-way breathability.
general ground coating is particularly suitable for wet environment construction, such as underground parking lots, canteens and other wet flooring.
