White fused aluminum oxide For Anti-slip Epoxy Floor
White Fused aluminum oxide works well as anti-slip aggregate in epoxy floor coating to improve anti-slip ability. It makes the epoxy floor coating tough, durable as well.
As a new type of floor coating, the epoxy floor always works as the factory floor, hospital floor, office, underground garage, supermarket, and other places. The epoxy floor is a floor coating made of epoxy resin as adhesive, adding curing agent, thinner, dispersant, emery wear-resistant powder, and other materials.
Epoxy floor coating has the advantages including:
wear resistance
non-slip
anti-corrosion, acid, and alkali resistance
pressure resistance, impact resistance,
waterproof
The anti-slip powder in its ingredients often goes white fused aluminum oxide granule as the aggregate. It has a greater impact on the quality of the epoxy floor. The advantages of white fused aluminum oxide(know as electrofused corundum/WFA) as an additive material for epoxy floor paint show in the following aspects:
- WFA is an artificially abrasive with a Mohs hardness of up to 9.0. It is a high-hardness abrasive raw material in most industrial fields.
- The white fused alumina is smelted at a high temperature of up to 2250 centigrade. The purity of the Al2O3 is over 99%, the refractory temperature can reach 1900 degrees Celsius, the coefficient of thermal expansion is low, and the thermal stability is strong. Thus, it can help improve the heat-resistant physical properties of the epoxy floor.
- The chemical properties of white fused aluminum oxide are stable. Thus, the physical properties of the resin remain good after being mixed with epoxy resin.
- The white fused alumina is a translucent white crystal. So, it will not change the color of the epoxy floor coating.
- Fused aluminum oxide is insoluble in water and has strong hydrolytic stability.
- All particle sizes of white fused aluminum oxide are available. Sizes range from sand (8 mesh-220 mesh) to micrometer powder (230 mesh-10000 mesh). Single-particle size or mixed with various particle sizes could be added to the epoxy resin coating.
Generally, used grit sizes include F46,F180,F220, JIS240, JIS280, JIS320,JIS 400, etc.
