MODERN EPOXY FLOORING

What Is Epoxy Flooring?

Epoxy flooring refers to the process of using epoxy materials for coating over the floor to create a durable and attractive flooring surface. Epoxy has a very impressive characteristic that is to create a strong, durable and chemically resistive covering over the surface it is used. For an attractive and long lasting flooring, it is very much used. Epoxy flooring furnishes a very decorative and high gloss finishing with varieties of colors and styles. It is very easy to decorate the floor with desired style and designing by using different types of epoxy.

Epoxy resins are “polyepoxides” which is a class of reactive prepolymers and polymers which contains epoxide groups. Epoxy resins can be reacted with themselves through catalytic homopolymerisation. The common practice is to use co-reactants, also known as hardeners or curative. Combing different types of resins and hardeners together, various epoxy plastic can be resolved. Also, a combination of different types of resins results in different looks and styles.

Epoxy Flooring Techniques For epoxy flooring, epoxide resin and a polyamine hardener have to be mixed in a certain amount. Combining those two chemicals a process is formed called “curing.” This curing is then used as a coating for the floor, or other concretes as well as for metals. After some hours, the liquid epoxy coating turns into an extremely strong and durable solid covering.

Thus, the flooring surface is made up of the coating normally having a depth lesser than two millimeters.

There are various types of floorings that are being practiced. The most common practice among these are as: self-dispersing epoxy flooring, epoxy terrazzo floors, graveled epoxy floors, chip flooring, and colored aggregate flooring.

The main cause of using epoxy flooring is because of its ability to create a strong, durable and chemically resistive surface and also for decorating with splendid and royal style. It also has varieties of purposes besides flooring. Composite materials such as carbon fiber and fiberglass also use an epoxy coating. In various electrical, automotive, and marine instruments it also has some applications.

Epoxy materials and epoxy coating compounds have applications as durable adhesives before painting and also in various similar fields. It’s use has become very popular because of having such characteristics like durability, ease of maintenance and cleaning and resistive to damping. So hotel lobbies, hospitals, kitchens and dining areas and other places with a lot of traffic have immense implication for flexibility and easiness.
