SGS Test: The Stain Resistance and Chemical Resistance of Plastic Flooring
In scenarios with strict requirements for flooring performance such as commercial spaces, medical facilities, schools, and industrial workshops, PVC plastic flooring has become a highly favored decorative flooring material due to its excellent stain resistance and chemical resistance. This synthetic flooring based on polyvinyl chloride resin, through scientific formula design and process innovation, demonstrates strong adaptability in coping with daily stains and chemical corrosion. It not only reduces maintenance costs but also extends service life, providing stable and reliable flooring protection for different scenarios.
I. Stain Resistance: Seamless Protection for Easy Handling of Various Stains
The stain resistance of PVC plastic flooring stems from its dense surface structure and special wear layer design. High-quality PVC flooring surfaces are usually covered with a specially treated transparent wear layer. The molecules of this film are closely arranged, forming a “seamless protective barrier” that prevents contaminants such as liquids and dust from penetrating into the flooring substrate. Whether it is common daily stains like coffee, fruit juice, soy sauce, oil stains, or snack crumbs and ink marks spilled during children’s play, they can only stay on the flooring surface without adhering or penetrating.
PVC plastic flooring (especially products with seamless splicing technology) has no seam hazards at all. After stains adhere, simply wipe with a damp cloth or perform simple mopping to quickly restore cleanliness, without the need for strong detergents or complex cleaning processes. In high-traffic areas such as shopping malls and restaurants, this easy-to-clean feature significantly reduces cleaning frequency and labor costs, maintaining a clean and beautiful floor at all times.
II. Chemical Resistance: Resisting Erosion for Adaptation to Complex Scenarios
The chemical resistance of PVC plastic flooring comes from the chemical stability of its substrate and the protective effect of the surface wear layer. Polyvinyl chloride resin itself has good acid-base resistance and solvent resistance. Combined with specialized surface treatment technology, the flooring can resist erosion from various chemical substances, making it suitable for special scenarios requiring chemical protection for the floor.
In medical facilities, the floor may frequently come into contact with chemical disinfectants such as alcohol, povidone-iodine, and disinfectant solutions. Traditional flooring materials may experience discoloration, aging, corrosion, and other issues after long-term use. However, PVC plastic flooring can effectively resist erosion from these disinfectants, maintaining an intact surface without affecting its core performance such as slip resistance and antibacterial properties, thus providing protection for the hygiene and safety of the medical environment. In industrial workshops, the floor may come into contact with industrial chemicals such as engine oil, lubricating oil, and acid-base solutions. The chemical resistance of PVC plastic flooring can prevent these substances from corroding, dissolving, or discoloring the floor, maintaining the integrity and safety of the workshop floor and reducing potential safety hazards caused by floor damage.
