Epoxy resin floor coatings key performance and detection method

Epoxy floor coating is a kind of coating applied to the ground, mainly composed of epoxy resin, curing agent, filler and solvent. They can be applied to various grounds, such as factories, parking lots, shopping malls, hospitals, schools, etc. They are wear-resistant, dust-proof, anti-corrosion, easy to clean, etc., and can improve the aesthetics and service life of the ground. Epoxy floor coatings have the advantages of high strength, high wear resistance, high adhesion, etc., can withstand heavy loads and high-flow traffic, and are suitable for various commercial and industrial places.

Detection steps:

  1. Thickness: Use a Thickness Gauge to measure the thickness of the epoxy floor coating, record the measurements and calculate the average.

  2. Hardness: Use a Barcol Hardness Tester to measure the hardness of the epoxy resin floor coating, record the measured value and calculate the average value.

  3. Compressive strength: Use a compression testing machine to conduct a compression test, record the test data and calculate the compressive strength.

  4. Abrasion resistance: Use an abrasion testing machine to conduct an abrasion test, record the test data and calculate the abrasion resistance.

  5. Adhesive strength: Use a shear strength Tester to conduct a shear test, record the test data and calculate the adhesive strength.

  6. Expansion coefficient: Use a thermal expansion coefficient Tester to measure the expansion coefficient of epoxy resin floor coatings, record the measured values and calculate the average value.

  7. Chemical Resistance: Use a chemical Tester to test the chemical resistance of epoxy floor coatings.

  8. Water resistance: use a water circulation device to place the epoxy resin floor coating in the water, record the time and observe the change of the coating.
