  • Excellent adhesion to properly prepared concrete, mild steel, and other substrates
  • Excellent abrasion resistance
  • Resistance to an aggressive corrosive environment
  • It is supplied in 3 pre-weighed packs (Base, Hardener, and Aggregate), ready for immediate on-site use
  • Part mixing of these components is not acceptable
  • If done, it will affect both the performance and appearance of the finished floor
  • A suitable power-driven bucket mixer is recommended for the uniform mixing of the screed material
  • Stir the base and hardener separately
  • Blend the aggregates in the bag
  • Mix hardener gradually into the base under continuous stirring
  • Mix the aggregates into the mixed resin portion uniformly under continuous mechanical agitation
  • Mix well for 3-4 minutes till the components become homogeneous
  • Apply after induction time and before the expiry of pot life
  • A serrated/notch trowel may apply the product to the required thickness
  • The entire mixed material should be poured onto the prepared and primed surface
  • Spread it slowly and evenly
  • To ensure proper leveling and appearance, avoid overspreading
  • The laid material should be rolled firmly with a spike roller
  • The above task ensures compactness and de-aeration of the film
  • Always wear spike shoes when rolling with a spike roller
  • The rolling should be carried out using a ‘back-and-forth technique along the same path
  • An overlap of 50% with adjacent paths is recommended
  • Further light rolling is needed to remove surface imperfections or for the subsequent release of trapped air
  • This should be done before the setting of the product
  • To avoid roller marks and prevent over-rolling of the coating
  • The coverage & leveling would vary significantly based on the nature & leveling of the concrete surface
  • Freshly applied SUNEPOXY PU should be protected from dampness, condensation, and water
  • The protection should be for at least 24 hours
  • At low temperatures, the chemical reactions are slowed down
  • This lengthens the pot life, open time & curing times
  • High temperatures speed up the chemical reactions
  • Thus, the time frames mentioned above are shortened accordingly

  • The helical paddle is done for a resin system with aggregate component
  • During all mixing operations, ensure that the mixing head is immersed
  • Add the base to the hardener and mix for 30 seconds to a minute
  • Then add the aggregate component while continuing to mix for 4 - 5 minutes
  • Do the above task until the mixed material is lump-free
  • Apply the mixed SUNCEM ECC within 2-4 hours of priming and before the primer becomes tack-free
  • SUNCEM ECC can be applied to a thickness of 2mm to 4mm for a self-smoothing finish
  • The above application could be made with a notched trowel
  • When applied to the freshly placed concrete, the texture will replicate that of the concrete finish
  • To achieve a smooth finish, it is necessary to have a flat, smooth substrate
  • Roll the coating with a spiked roller to expel air and achieve a smooth finish
  • Rolling should continue until all air is released and a uniform finish is obtained

FAQs

Epoxy flooring coating is a durable and protective layer applied to concrete floors. It consists of epoxy resin and a hardening agent that chemically reacts to form a tough, glossy surface. Epoxy flooring is known for its strength, chemical resistance, and aesthetic appeal, making it popular in industrial and commercial settings.
The terms "epoxy flooring" and "epoxy floor coating" are often used interchangeably, but there's a distinction. Epoxy flooring refers to a complete system, including multiple layers like base coats, epoxy coatings, and sealants. Epoxy floor coating specifically refers to the top layer, providing the glossy, protective finish in the epoxy flooring system.
The lifespan of an epoxy floor depends on factors such as the quality of the installation, the level of traffic, and maintenance. Generally, well-installed epoxy floors can last 10 to 20 years or more. Regular cleaning and periodic reapplication of a topcoat can extend the floor's longevity.
Epoxy flooring is generally considered good for its durability, chemical resistance, and aesthetic appeal. It provides a seamless, easy-to-clean surface suitable for various applications. However, its performance depends on proper installation and maintenance. Inappropriate application or inadequate surface preparation can lead to issues such as peeling or delamination.
While the terms are sometimes used interchangeably, epoxy paint and epoxy coating have differences. Epoxy paint is a single-component product, typically water-based, with lower durability. Epoxy coating, a more robust option, involves a two-component epoxy resin and hardener system, providing a stronger and longer-lasting finish on surfaces like floors.
