As people's living standards improve, the level and quality of home decoration are getting higher and higher, and the methods and types of decoration are also increasing. In terms of home floor decoration alone, there are two common floor decoration schemes: one is wooden floor, and the other is ceramic or marble floor. The main problems with these two floor decoration schemes are as follows: wooden floors have seams, are prone to mold, are too rough, give a sticky feeling when walked on, fear water, are prone to corrosion, and are difficult to maintain; ceramic or marble floors, have seams, moisture is hard to dissipate, they are slippery, and produce loud sounds when walked on. To address the aforementioned issues with wooden and ceramic/marble floors in home decoration, an epoxy self-leveling decoration scheme has been adopted, which has received positive feedback and popularity from owners of townhouses and high-end residences.

Below is an introduction to the epoxy self-leveling floor decoration scheme and its construction process. This epoxy self-leveling decoration scheme adopts a one-primer-two-intermediate-one-topcoat construction process. The primer uses high-adhesion epoxy sealing primer, the intermediate coat uses solvent-free epoxy intermediate coating mixed with quartz powder for putty application, and the topcoat uses solvent-free epoxy self-leveling floor paint applied by troweling.

**Characteristics of Epoxy Self-Leveling Floor Decoration:**

This epoxy self-leveling decoration scheme is generally applicable to corridors and indoor floors of townhouses, high-end residences, high-end office buildings, and high-end apartments. Its main characteristics include:

1. **Strong Decorative Effect**: It can provide the floor with various soft colors, facilitating directional traffic flow and achieving location management.

2. **High Cleanliness**: Overcomes the serious shortcoming of concrete floors having many capillaries that easily absorb dust, seam-free, effectively preventing dust generation and accumulation, meeting the needs of highly clean production environments.

3. **Good Mechanical Properties**: Strong adhesion, with good wear resistance, pressure resistance, dustproofing, impact resistance, and washability.

4. **Good Environmental Protection**: No solvent volatilization, low construction toxicity, meets environmental protection VOC requirements.

5. **Waterproof**: Can prevent water from penetrating into the floor slab or even leaking down to the lower level.

6. **Anti-bacterial and Bacteriostatic Performance**.
