Performance |
Epoxy Flooring |
Monocomponent Polyurea Flooring |
Flexibility |
Weak flexiblity, Easily Scratch, cracking or delaminating under external impact or temperture change; the lower the temperature, the poor the Flexibility of epoxy flooring |
Good impact resistance and flexibility, effective crack resistance of concrete; good scratch resistcance and wear resisitance; keep good flexibility and not delaminate under high hardness. |
Weatherability |
Poor weatherability, easily decomposing and powdering under UV radiation; poor water resistance, not suitable for outdoor and wet environment; poor performance in high temperature, scratch or color fading under high pressure. |
Good weatherability, waterproof, anti-UV, little influence by sunshine (slight discoloration),never powdering, cracking or falling off; can be used in wet environment; good performance under high temperature, effectively resist damages from tire caused by sudden braking. |
Skid Resistance |
Poor skid resistance since the surface of epoxy flooring is hard and glossy, thus it is easy to slip or fall on it; appear slippage when braking or turning the corner, tire friction noise is frequently occured. |
Polyurea coating has a good performance of skid resistance, can form micro ball non-skid surface through simple roller construction, this surface has a founction of skid resistance and weaken the brightness. |
Overall Strength |
Add a lot of filling powder in self leveling layer to lower cost which can hardly keep quality; performance weaker after resin molded, strength of self leveling layer is weak, easily corrosion and falling off. |
MMA self leveling resin has a high strength that far exceed flooring requirement; it also has a characteristic of high adhesion and fast curing, and can adjust the speed of curing. |
Construction |
Curing slow, construction period is long and limited to temperature, the minimum construction temperature need to above 10 centigrade degree. |
Good adhesion, curing fast, does not sagging, little influence by temperature or humidity for construction, can curing in 3 hours which can shorten the construction period. |
