Chemical Resistant Resin Flooring (Acid & Alkali Protection)

Chemical Resistant Resin Flooring Solutions

Chemical exposure can destroy a normal floor fast. Acid and alkali spills can stain, soften coatings, and break the bond to concrete. Over time, the floor may blister, peel, and become hard to clean.

ZDSpoxy Chemical Resistant Resin Flooring is built to form a dense, low-porosity barrier on concrete. It helps resist acid/alkali attack, supports daily cleaning, and keeps strong mechanical performance for long-term use.

Where this system is commonly used

This solution is a good fit for sites that face frequent chemicals, cleaning agents, and industrial liquids, such as:

Chemical plants and fine chemical workshops
Electroplating and surface treatment areas
Food processing and pharmaceutical facilities
Laboratories and testing centers
Battery and electronics manufacturing
Wastewater treatment and industrial buildings

What this system helps you achieve

Better resistance to acids and alkalis (built for long-term stability)
Dense, seamless surface that is easier to clean
High mechanical strength for daily traffic
Good adhesion to prepared concrete
Long service life with correct system design and installation

Chemical resistance scope (simple explanation)

This system is designed for areas where floors may face:

Acid/alkali solutions and splashes
Chemical cleaning agents
Industrial process liquids

If you have long-term immersion, strong solvents, or extreme conditions, we can upgrade the build-up and recommend a more heavy-duty system.

Thickness guide (simple selection)

Choose thickness by chemical severity and mechanical load:

2.0 mm — Moderate chemical exposure
(splashes, routine cleaning, controlled process areas)
2.5–3.0 mm — Heavy acid/alkali exposure or long-term wet areas
(more frequent spills, higher risk, tougher service)

Thickness can be adjusted based on your chemical type, concentration, spill frequency, and traffic.

Recommended product models (ZDSpoxy)

Below are practical model combinations commonly used for chemical resistant resin flooring. We choose the final set based on your substrate condition, chemical list, and downtime window.

Option A — Chemical-resistant epoxy coating system (common choice)

Best for many industrial sites with splashes, routine cleaning, and moderate exposure.

System part	What it does	Recommended ZDSpoxy model
Epoxy primer	Seals concrete and improves bonding	ZDS1012AB — 2K Epoxy Primer
Chemical-resistant topcoat	Dense barrier + wear resistance	ZDS4220AB-90 — Industrial-Grade Epoxy Topcoat

Option B — Heavy-duty chemical resistant mortar system (for tougher environments)

Best for higher exposure, harsher areas, or when you need a stronger mortar layer.

System part	What it does	Recommended ZDSpoxy model
PU mortar primer	Strong base for mortar system	ZDS5502AB — PU Mortar Flooring System Primer
Chemical resistant mortar layer	Builds thickness and improves resistance and strength	ZDS2802-PU — Chemical Resistant Resin Flooring Mortar Layer
Protective top layer (as needed)	Adds barrier + easier cleaning	ZDS4220AB-90 — Industrial-Grade Epoxy Topcoat (common choice)

Installation overview (what to expect)

A chemical-resistant floor succeeds when the basics are done right:

- Chemical & risk review
  We confirm your exposure type: splashes vs frequent spills vs long-term wet/immersion.
- Surface preparation (critical step)
  Grinding or shot blasting removes weak concrete, opens pores, and improves bonding. Cracks and joints are repaired.
- Primer application
  Seals the concrete and reduces pinholes and blistering risk.
- Build thickness (if needed)
  Mortar/leveling layers improve flatness, strength, and barrier consistency.
- Apply chemical resistant topcoat
  Creates a dense, seamless protective surface.
- Curing and return to service
  Cure time depends on temperature and ventilation. We provide a simple curing plan for your schedule.

Quality checks (how you verify performance)

Before handover, these checks help confirm real performance:

Adhesion / bond strength (especially repaired areas and edges)
Coating continuity (no pinholes, weak spots, or missed areas)
Thickness check (matches the 2.0mm or 2.5–3.0mm design target)
Visual inspection (bubbles, delamination signs, rough patches)
Trial cleaning / chemical wipe test (when required by your process)

If you need a formal acceptance checklist, we can provide one.

Common failures (and how to avoid them)

Problem: Blistering or bubbling
Often caused by moisture vapor, poor prep, or trapped air in porous concrete.
Fix: moisture check + correct preparation + proper priming.

Problem: Peeling at edges or joints
Often caused by weak concrete, contamination, or poor joint treatment.
Fix: repair + joint plan + correct primer selection.

Problem: Staining or soft spots
Often caused by the wrong resin type for the chemical list.
Fix: confirm chemical list first, then choose the correct build-up.

FAQs

Is epoxy enough for acid/alkali areas?

For many sites, yes—if the chemical list is confirmed and the system is designed correctly. For tougher conditions, a mortar-based system may be better.

Can this floor handle frequent washdown?

Yes. A seamless resin surface is easier to clean than tile joints, and the build-up can be tuned for washdown routines.

What details do you need to recommend the right system?

Chemical names + concentration, spill frequency (splashes vs pooling), temperature, traffic type, and your downtime window.
