System capable of dissipating electrostatic charges and preventing harmful discharges (ESD).
Colored coating system for cementitious substrates free from rising damp, capable of dissipating electrostatic charges.
The system is based on epoxy resins in water-based emulsion.
The products are formulated with highly conductive additives to create antistatic flooring, providing electrical conductivity that prevents the accumulation of electrostatic charges.
Typical applications of antistatic coatings include: chemical, electronic, and mechanical industries (particularly in the presence of AGV carts), operating rooms, and areas at risk of flammable or explosive atmospheres.
Surface Preparation
Concrete substrates must be solid, dry, level, absorbent, and free from oils, detergents, dust, or other contaminants. Additionally, there must be no rising damp.
For newly cast screeds, the normal curing time must be observed. Evaluate the most suitable mechanical preparation method: abrasion or grinding with fine-grain tools.
Application
- Establish grounding points by applying copper strips near electrical boxes.
- Apply one coat of PAVIWATER ESD with a roller, diluted 10% with water, at a product consumption of 0.10–0.13 kg/m².
- Apply a second coat of PAVIWATER ESD with a roller, diluted 10% with water, at a product consumption of 0.10–0.13 kg/m².
The resulting coating thickness is approximately 0.1 mm.
Warnings
If the substrate is particularly absorbent or dusty, apply one coat of PAVIWATER ESD diluted with 50% water as a primer, using 0.05 kg/m² of product, and then proceed as described.
