  OrgasolÒ powder in Flooring

Although PVC flooring has good abrasion and scratch resistance properties, adding a protective polyurethane layer can increase these strengths and improve cleanability and durability.

Manufacturers of PVC flooring are mainly interested in anti-slip properties and easy-to-clean surfaces that meet strict safety rules (R9 to R12). OrgasolÒ powder is often incorporated in the polyurethane top coating to enhance these properties in PVC flooring.

OrgasolÒ powder additives make cleaning easier. Specific OrgasolÒ grades, with an average particle size from 5 to 60 microns, enable manufacturers to customize the ratio of particle size / thickness of polyurethane layer to create an easy-to-clean, non-slip texture.

OrgasolÒ powder can also be used to create matte finishes with very low gloss. This gloss control property is of particular interest because, unlike most of the silica based products, OrgasolÒ has no impact on the viscosity levels of 100% solids UV curable formulations, while improving abrasion, scratch and stain resistance.

Even in PVC flooring with a good initial resistance to abrasion and scratches, the use of OrgasolÒ powder will improve performance, especially in high traffic areas, or where low gloss finishes are required.

OrgasolÒ powder also improves stain and scuff resistance, especially when the average particle size (APS) of the polyamide powder is greater than the thickness of the polyurethane layer.

OrgasolÒ powder is easily dispersed in polyurethane formulations, whether solvent based, water based or 100% solid UV/EB curable formulations.
