Classification and Service Life Analysis of Epoxy Floor Paint

Epoxy floor paints are used more and more, and epoxy floor paints are used in many occasions, but many people do not know the specific types of epoxy floor paints?

1. Classification of epoxy floor paint

According to the difference of use occasion and function, epoxy floor paint is roughly divided into four categories, industrial epoxy floor paint, self-leveling floor paint, epoxy mortar floor paint, and anti-static floor paint. The function of each floor paint is different, and the service life of each floor paint is also different. Therefore, when choosing epoxy floor paint, you should decide according to your own use environment.

2. The service life of epoxy floor paint

The service life of the floor paint is actually related to the thickness of the paint film. The higher the thickness, the longer the service life. We should choose the appropriate floor paint and paint film thickness according to the anti-corrosion requirements.

2.1. Industrial epoxy floor paint is mostly used on indoor substrates such as warehouses, workshops, parking lots, etc. It has good wear resistance and pressure resistance, and its appearance is relatively good. The thickness of this kind of floor paint is generally selected within 0.2-0.5 mm, and it can be used for more than 5 years.

2.2. Epoxy self-leveling floor paint is very smooth and easy to construct. It looks like a mirror and has good acid and alkali resistance. It is suitable for some occasions where the ground is clean and has high requirements for acid and alkali resistance. During construction, the general thickness of epoxy self-leveling floor paint is 2mm, which has a service life of more than 10 years.

2.3. Epoxy mortar floor paint has a relatively high hardness and can withstand strong impacts, such as some docks, chemical plants, and driveways. There are many types of epoxy mortar floor paint, and the thickness is selected according to the degree of corrosion in the use environment. A thickness of 1 mm can be used for more than 5 years, and a thickness of 3 mm or more can be used for more than 15 years.

These four kinds of epoxy floor paints are relatively common epoxy floor paints, and suitable floor paints shoule be selected according to different functional needs. The specific service life depends on whether the corrosion degree of the site is serious or not. If you have any other questions, please feel free to consult us.
