What Makes Epoxy Coatings Safe For Chemical Storage?

Epoxy coatings offer multiple layers of protection in chemical storage facilities against corrosion, leakage and contamination. The non-flammable properties and maintenance ease of epoxy provide a safer environment and reduced health effects from chemical exposure. Standards from ASTM and ISO are followed for implementing these coatings. Regular inspections are essential for observing coating integrity, which helps prevent chemical leakage and concrete degradation. With its superior durability, epoxy coatings can function between 10 to 20 years with proper maintenance, making it a cost-effective solution.

Calcium Chloride Testing: Is Your Floor Ready?

Calcium chloride testing is a vital step in assessing a concrete slab's readiness for covering materials. The test measures a slab's moisture vapor emission rates by placing a pre-weighed calcium chloride disc under a sealed sheet for 24 hours. The accumulated weight helps calculate vapor emission rates, which ideally range between 3-5. Technicians must adhere to specific protocols to ensure accurate results, which include meticulous surface preparation and maintaining the test setup for 60-72 hours.

How to Test Epoxy Bond Strength on Floors

Epoxy bond strength on floors are assessed using specific tools and protocols to ensure adherence to industry standards. Measurement tools include tensile testing machines, peel strength test devices, and surface preparation tools. To determine if a surface is ready for epoxy bonding, technicians conduct various tests such as moisture testing, visual and tactile inspections, pH testing and surface roughness measurements. Pull-off testing, following ASTM D4541 guidelines, measures the epoxy's bond strength by applying a controlled force on the surface.
