Floors/flooring polyester resin

Polyester resin floor toppings, similar in performance to the epoxy toppings, have been used but, as indicated earlier, polyester systems tend to shrink and, without careful formulation and laying, shrinkage stresses with polyester resin systems can develop at the interface between the topping and the concrete substrate. Coupled with the additional stresses due to the differences in their coefficients to thermal expansion, this can cause failure at the surface of the concrete substrate." ... 

Polyurethane mortar flooring systems based on somewhat similar technology to this special polyester system have also been used in chemical plants and have given excellent service. The basic urethane polymer is more elastomeric than either epoxy or polyester resins and, as such, is reported to have excellent thermal properties up...

Some of the earliest major applications of adhesives in civil engineering involved the use of resins for abrasion resistant and non-slip surfaces to heavy duty floors and roads. This was achieved by the use of synthetic anti-skid grits, such as calcined bauxite, set in a resin base. Both epoxy and polyester resins have been used, applied either by trowel or in slurry form by squeegee. Trowelled systems are usually heavily filled mortars with an aggregate resin ratio of the order of 6 1 and as such usually require a priming... 

The REZKLAD epoxy-based system consists of a Concrete Primer and Flooring Compound, plus an Expansion Joint Compound and Surface Sealer available for use where necessary. The CLADKOTE Flooring Compound is a modified polyester, resin-based monolithic overlay for concrete. The composite of resins and siliceous reinforcing material cures to a tough, chemical resistant topping. CLADKOTE C utilizes a 100% carbon filler specifically designed for service in hydrofluoric acid and fluoride salts.

Our houses are built of wood (cellulose and lignin), sheathed with particleboard (wood chips pressed with plastic resin), wrapped with plastic sheeting, clad with siding (vinyl), and decorated with plastic shutters. Buildings with wood siding are covered with paint. Inside, water flows through plastic pipes, the floors are covered with tiles (vinyl) or carpeting (polyester, nylon), the walls are covered with wallpaper (vinyl) or painted (acrylics), and the... 

A red shale brick or quarry tile floor is usually installed over a hot or cold applied mastic membrane. The mastic is applied to the concrete floor then the brick or tile are set with a resin cement. The resin cement can be a furan, a polyester or an epoxy depending on the anticipated exposure conditions. If high temperatures and constant exposure to aggressive chemicals are anticipated, the brick or tile will be bedded in the mortar as well as having mortar joints.
