Flow applied, 2 mm thick epoxy resin based floor topping
Uses
Nitoflor SL2000 is designed for use in wide range of industrial environments where a lasting solution to floor maintenance problems is required. It provides a dense, impervious, coloured and chemically resistant floor surface which is hygienic and easy to clean. Typical applications include:
- Clean rooms
- Laboratories
- Kitchens
- Plant rooms
- Light industrial plants
Advantages
- Fast application – minimises downtime
- Chemically resistant – good resistance to a wide range of chemicals
- Durable – good abrasion resistance
- Hygienic – provides a dense, impervious, seamless floor surface which is easily cleaned
- Attractive – available in a wide range of colours to enhance the working environment
Description
Nitoflor SL2000 consists of graded aggregates bound in a pigmented epoxy resin binder. It is supplied as a four-component system, pre-weighed for on-site mixing.
When laid, it provides a smooth, light-reflective surface. It is available in a range of standard colours.
Specification
Flow-applied epoxy floor topping
The designated floor areas shall be surfaced with Nitoflor SL2000, a 2 mm thick floor-applied epoxy resin floor topping.The topping shall achieve a compressive strength of 50 N/mm 2 and a flexural strength of 34 N/mm 2 at 7 days when tested to BS6319. At 20°C, it shall be capable of accepting foot traffic at 24 hours and vehicular traffic at 48 hours.
Typical Properties
The values given below are average figures achieved in laboratory tests. Actual values obtained on site may show minor variations from those quoted.
Chemical properties
Nitoflor SL2000 has excellent resistance at ambient temperatures to a wide range of industrial chemicals. Specific data is available on request.
Note that it is especially important that spillage is cleaned up quickly since much higher concentrations of chemicals may occur on evaporation.
Design criteria
Nitoflor SL2000 is designed for application at a nominal thickness of 2 mm.
Substrates should be dry and not suffer, or be likely to suffer,from rising damp. If necessary, suitable damp-proof membranes should be installed to prevent this. Substrates should not have a relative humidity greater than 75% at the time of installation.
