Precautions during epoxy floor construction and treatment methods for damp ground

During the construction of epoxy floors, it should be noted that there should be sufficient protective areas in the construction environment. If there is coarse sand, hard sand and mortar on the ground, they should be cleaned in time. If the ground is damp, a waterproof layer can be made, and measures such as maintaining ventilation and heating at the construction site can be taken to change the humidity. The following will provide a detailed introduction to the relevant knowledge for you.

Precautions for epoxy floor construction

During construction, there should be sufficient isolation areas in the construction environment to prevent dust, sand particles, etc. from penetrating into the epoxy floor with undried paint films.
In areas prone to pollution where the store location is prominent, the aisle should be cleaned 1-2 times a day with a wide cloth mop.
If there are coarse and hard sand particles and mortar on the road surface, they should be cleaned in time to prevent the sand particles from grinding the ground and reducing the damage to the road surface.
Before workers enter the clean area, they should change into soft-soled shoes. Sand is easily brought in. At the junction of mortar, plastic mats are placed at the entrances and exits to facilitate workers to remove debris from the soles when entering and exiting.
When forklifts unload goods, pay attention to the placement of the goods to prevent them from being on the side of the goods and scratching the epoxy floor.
Vehicles, forklifts and forklifts should try to avoid braking during operation. For areas that often leak oil, sawdust is often used for cleaning to prevent the oil from denaturing and adsorbing dust and becoming stubborn stains.
In the oil immersion area, a wide cloth mop can be used to push the sawdust to absorb the floor oil.
Mechanical repair tools should preferably not hit the road surface. In case of large damage to the paint film, report for repair in time so that repair work can be carried out before the oil seeps into the base.
When the workshop uses water to clean the ground, prevent the oil-water mixture from depositing in deep damaged areas. When epoxy floors are used properly, their service life can be prolonged, usually about 10 years.

How to deal with the humidity of the epoxy floor?

Make a waterproof layer
For concrete base layers with high water content and an increasing water content trend, a professional waterproof layer should be made to avoid floor failure caused by later leakage.
Maintain ventilation at the construction site
Maintaining ventilation at the construction site, the circular flow of air can accelerate the evaporation of moisture on the surface of the concrete base layer, which is beneficial to improving the adhesion between the epoxy floor paint and the surface of the base layer.
Heating
Increasing the temperature of the concrete base layer can accelerate the evaporation of water. It is best to use air heating or radiant heating. Open flame heating cannot be used because open flame heating will increase the dew point temperature in the air and cause water vapor to condense in the concrete.
Moisture-permeable system
The moisture-permeable system has an extremely high water permeability rate, which can ensure that the water vapor on the surface of the base layer escapes through the coating and prevent the coating from blistering and falling off. It is suitable for the base layer surface where a waterproof layer cannot be installed.
