What role does plasticizer play in epoxy floor paint materials?

Epoxy floor paint is mainly composed of epoxy resin, curing agent, pigment, filler, solvent, auxiliary agent, etc. What role does plasticizer play in epoxy floor paint materials? Plasticizer is a commonly used additive for floor paint, which plays a role in improving the adhesion of the film and increasing the flexibility of the paint, and directly affects the impact resistance and flexibility of the epoxy floor paint surface film.

Plasticizers are compounds with good compatibility with polymers (high boiling point substances called plasticizers). Through physical action, the glass transition temperature of the polymer is reduced to improve the processability and give the epoxy floor paint film flexibility. The simplest way to modify epoxy floor paint is to add plasticize

Epoxy floor paint is commonly used in combination with bio ester plasticizer and environment-friendly plasticizer.

The addition of plasticizer in epoxy resin can improve the fluidity of epoxy floor paint, reduce the flow temperature, and is conducive to processing and molding. The impact strength, flexibility, ultimate elongation and low temperature resistance of the paint film of the floor paint surface are increased, while the tensile strength, bending strength, glass transition temperature, elastic modulus and electrostatic properties are greatly reduced. The increase and decrease of its related properties depend on the amount and type of plasticizer.
