Which type of epoxy colored sand floor coating is more environmentally friendly?

Comparative Analysis of the Environmental Performance of Epoxy Colored Sand Floor Coatings:

1. Environmental Performance Comparison

Water-Based Epoxy Colored Sand

Using water as the dispersion medium, it has an extremely low VOC content (formaldehyde emission is only 0.02 mg/m³).

Contains no harmful substances such as formaldehyde and benzene, and has virtually no irritating odor during application.

Especially suitable for environments with high environmental requirements, such as children's rooms and elderly care rooms.

Solvent-Free Epoxy Colored Sand

Contains no organic solvents and releases no harmful substances after curing.

Suitable for use in environments with strict hygiene requirements, such as pharmaceuticals and food services.

Oil-Based Epoxy Colored Sand

Contains organic solvents such as toluene and xylene, resulting in poor environmental performance.

Ensure adequate ventilation during application; trace residues may remain after curing.

2.Buying Tips
