Polyurethane Floor coating 2K
Barklay Polymers is excited to introduce our premium Polyurethane Floor Coating 2K, an advanced two-component coating system designed to provide superior protection, durability, and aesthetic appeal for various flooring surfaces. This high-performance coating is ideal for demanding commercial and industrial environments, offering excellent resistance to abrasion, chemicals, and heavy traffic.
Product Features
- Two-Component System (2K): Comprises a resin base and a hardener, ensuring superior mechanical properties and chemical resistance.
- Enhanced Durability: Provides exceptional resistance to abrasion, impacts, and heavy loads, ensuring long-lasting floor protection.
- Chemical Resistance: Withstands exposure to a wide range of chemicals, including oils, solvents, acids, and alkalis, making it suitable for harsh industrial environments.
- Aesthetic Versatility: Available in various colors and finishes (gloss, semi-gloss, matte) to meet specific aesthetic requirements.
- UV Stability: Excellent resistance to UV light, preventing yellowing and degradation when exposed to sunlight.
- Application Flexibility: Can be applied by roller, brush, or spray, offering versatility in application methods.
- Fast Curing: Quick drying and curing times, enabling rapid return to service and minimizing downtime.
- Low VOC Content: Formulated with low volatile organic compounds (VOC), ensuring compliance with environmental regulations and promoting a healthier working environment.
Applications
- Surface Preparation: Ensure the substrate is clean, dry, and free from contaminants such as grease, oil, and dust. Concrete surfaces should be mechanically prepared to achieve a suitable profile for coating adhesion.
- Priming: Apply a suitable primer if required, especially on porous or absorbent surfaces.
- Mixing: Thoroughly mix the resin and hardener components in the specified ratio. Use a mechanical mixer for consistent and thorough blending.
- Application: Apply the mixed coating evenly using a roller, brush, or spray equipment. For best results, apply in two coats, allowing adequate drying time between coats.
- Curing: Allow the coating to cure fully before exposing it to heavy traffic or chemical spills. Full curing typically occurs within 7 days under normal conditions.
