Anti-Weathering Inorganic Wear-Resistant Carborundum Curing Agent Floor for Squares: Ultimate Durability Meets Aesthetic Excellence
Product Overview
The Anti-Weathering Inorganic Wear-Resistant Carborundum Curing Agent Floor is a cutting-edge flooring solution engineered for high-traffic public squares, pedestrian zones, and commercial plazas. Combining advanced inorganic chemistry with premium carborundum aggregates, this system delivers unparalleled resistance to weathering, abrasion, and environmental stressors. Designed for longevity, aesthetics, and low maintenance, it redefines durability in outdoor flooring while maintaining a polished, contemporary appearance.
Technical Specifications & Core Components
- Inorganic Binder Matrix:
- Formulated with high-purity lithium silicate and reactive silica compounds, creating a dense, non-porous matrix that resists moisture ingress, chemical attack, and UV degradation.
- Self-healing properties under dynamic loads due to its crystalline microstructure, which continuously redistributes stress forces.
- Carborundum Aggregate Blend:
- Ultra-hard silicon carbide (SiC) particles (Mohs hardness 9.5) embedded in a graded distribution (8-20 mesh) for multi-level wear resistance.
- Angular aggregates enhance interlock with the binder, boosting compressive strength (>80 MPa) and flexural strength (>15 MPa).
- Advanced Curing Agents:
- Hybrid aluminum-calcium phosphate accelerators trigger rapid hydration reactions, achieving 90% cure within 24 hours at 20°C.
- Integral corrosion inhibitors protect embedded steel reinforcements in composite installations.
- Surface Enhancement System:
- Optional nano-silica topcoat with hydrophobic modifiers (contact angle >110°) for stain resistance and ease of cleaning.
- Anti-slip texture options (R10-R13) compliant with EN 13893 for pedestrian safety standards.
Key Performance Advantages
- Extreme Weather Resistance:
- Withstands freeze-thaw cycles (-40°C to +80°C) without spalling or micro-cracking (ASTM C666/C672 compliant).
- Thermal shock resistance coefficient >250°C/min, suitable for climates with drastic temperature fluctuations.
- Superior Wear Characteristics:
- Taber Abraser test results show <50 mg loss after 1000 cycles (CS-17 wheel, 1000g load).
- Aggregate protrusion height maintained at >1.5 mm after 10 years simulated traffic (ASTM D4060).
- Chemical & Environmental Tolerance:
- Resistant to de-icing salts, vehicle fluids, and organic acids (pH 2-12 stability).
- Zero VOC emissions during application/cure (CDPH Section 01350 compliant).
- Aesthetic Flexibility:
- Available in natural concrete gray, pigmented earth tones, or exposed aggregate finishes.
- Seamless installation eliminates joints, preventing weed growth and debris accumulation.
Application Scenarios
- Urban Squares: Withstands heavy foot traffic, skateboarding, and temporary event setups without surface degradation.
- Transit Hubs: Resists brake dust, hydraulic fluid spills, and constant vibration from vehicle/pedestrian traffic.
- Cultural Plazas: Preserves decorative patterns/engravings through patented surface stabilization technology.
- Coastal Areas: Chloride ion penetration resistance >10,000 coulombs (ASTM C1202), ideal for marine environments.
Sustainable Benefits
- Carbon Footprint Reduction:
- 40% lower embodied energy than epoxy/polyurethane systems (ISO 14040 LCA certified).
- Recyclable at end-of-life via mechanical grinding for aggregate recovery.
- LEED Contributions:
- Meets MR Credit 4 (Recycled Content) with 35% pre-consumer recycled carborundum.
- Qualifies for IEQ Credit 4.1 (Low-Emitting Materials) with zero volatile organic compounds.
Installation Process
- Surface Preparation:
- Shot blasting to achieve CSP 3-5 (SSPC-SP 11) profile.
- Moisture mitigation using hydrophobic primers if RH >75%.
- Application:
- Two-coat system: Base layer (6-8 mm DFT) + wear layer (3-4 mm DFT) applied by trowel/power float.
- Curing agent mixed at 4% by weight, broadcast carborundum at 2.5 kg/m² density.
- Finishing:
- Diamond grinding to #300 grit for smooth/slip-resistant texture.
- Sealing with siloxane impregnators for enhanced chemical resistance.
Maintenance Guidelines
- Daily Care: Pressure washing (max 1500 psi) with neutral pH cleaners.
- Periodic Renewal: Re-application of nano-coating every 3-5 years extends service life.
- Stain Removal: Poultice treatment for oil/grease using absorbent clay compounds.
