In direct contrast to PVC flooring

[1] In this give you an analysis on between people often confuse the "PVC flooring, plastic flooring, Stone Sculpture floor, rubber flooring, linoleum, anti-static floor" of the relationship and distinction.
◆ Stone Sculpture floor is the one called, referring to the PVC sheet flooring, PVC sheet flooring as the main raw material is natural stone powder, wear-resistant layer is a PVC material, thus named "Stone Sculpture floor" or "rock Plastic tiles. "
◆ vinyl flooring, PVC sports flooring, PVC plastic flooring, PVC plastic floors are in fact non-standard names, but we can be understood as a PVC floor.
◆ rubber flooring and PVC floor entirely different concept, rubber flooring is the floor natural rubber, synthetic rubber and polymer materials made of other ingredients. It refers to the artificial cultivation of natural rubber rubber trees taken down rubber. SBR, high benzene, butadiene rubber, synthetic rubber, a petroleum-product. Rubber as the main raw materials are divided into homogeneous and heterogeneous relief surface, smooth surface indoor rubber flooring. Refers to a homogeneous rubber flooring of natural rubber or synthetic rubber-based, color, composition of a single layer or a multilayer structure consistent vulcanization floor; heterogeneous rubber floor: floor refers to natural or synthetic rubber, based on the structure includes a wear layer and the other in composition and (or) design on a different compaction layers, compacted layer contains a skeleton layer. Rubber flooring is generally used for high-end places or places for wear demanding, since wear resistance, expensive, difficult coloring, color single installation method requires strict, the market is not too great. Currently in the country has mainly used in the transport sector, such as subways, airplanes, cars and other vehicles, airports, stations, ships and other transportation hubs.
◆ linoleum and PVC flooring is completely different, linoleum flooring is a flexible, its ingredients: linseed oil, limestone, cork, wood flour, natural resin, jute. The natural environment is the most prominent characteristic of linoleum, with good resistance to cigarette performance. The disadvantage is that the surface of the porous, not tolerance, installation difficulties, low temperature will fracture. Linen currently web-based, through the heart of a single homogeneous structure.
◆ Anti-static floor also called dissipating floor. This floor, when it is grounded or connected to any lower potential point, the charge can be dissipated to the resistance between 1.0x105-109Ω characterized. A wide range of anti-static floor, there are anti-static ceramic tiles, three anti-anti-static floor, all-steel anti-static floor, anti-static flooring, aluminum anti-static flooring, anti-static flooring imitation wood imports, PVC anti-static flooring, calcium sulfate anti-static flooring, etc., which belong to the category of PVC flooring is antistatic PVC flooring. "Anti-static PVC floor" is a component of PVC flooring added a conductive material made of anti-static floor. But this is not simply add some toner on the can, anti-static flooring in the resistance value by strict border points. General resistance of 10 ^ 6 to 10 floors called anti-static floor 9 th between the resistance called conductive floor in 6 th among 10 to 10 of the fourth power. Anti-static floor is mainly used for some of the special requirements of space electrostatic room, special wards, precision workshop. So also an anti-static PVC floor PVC flooring. But rubber floor can also add some anti-static conductive component.
[2] This part of the detailed interpretation of PVC floor and floor compared to other, whereby you can understand the unique advantages of PVC flooring:
<1>; and flax contrast floor
PVC flooring and linoleum are both resilient flooring, but differ:
◆ composition and production process is different: Linoleum is a mixture of oxidized linseed oil, cork and wood flour, jute backing laminated onto processing. The PVC flooring is based on polyvinyl chloride and its copolymer resin as the main raw material, adding fillers, plasticizers, stabilizers, coloring agents accessories, in the sheet continuous substrate, the coating process or by rolling, extrusion or extrusion process from production. From this point of view is used in natural linen flax, which is used in PVC flooring PVC material, but also green materials.
◆ wear resistance and stability there is a difference: resistance to scratching in general, on the hard linoleum floor under soft linen, which is why the thick linoleum resistance to scratching performance is not a good reason, comparatively speaking PVC flooring wear better. Further dimensional stability linoleum in general, therefore, you must use a strong glue, whole, less stability of PVC linoleum floor.
◆ maintain the degree of difficulty there is a difference: linoleum need to conserve natural light, there will be differences between the sample and in-kind, yellow, linoleum for the maintenance of the product (PH> 7) of less resistance, linoleum in need refurbishing, You must use special care products waxing. Much harder than PVC linoleum floor, but because of the porous surface, so all the stains must be cleaned up quickly, otherwise the surface will leave difficult to remove the blot and had to re-polish and wax. Because it is not a thermoplastic material, it can not be recycled, traces of burns may be easily worn away, but for more in-depth burn marks, through the heart of PVC polished linoleum floor than much easier.
◆ ease of installation there is a difference: linoleum installation more difficult, if the indoor temperature is too low, linoleum break. Because of its nature and size of the instability of the absorption, so the product must be quickly installed with superglue. For example, one day, an installation team can lay 80 to 100 square meters of PVC floor, or it may only be 60 square meters of laying linoleum. Linseed oil temperature insensitive, can not use the same material for welding electrodes, so it is not welded but "seams", so linoleum can be divided into categories E3 waterproof, linoleum does not apply to wet or have a clean room required area. Linoleum will emit a strong odor, stranded in the installation room.
<2>; comparison with rubber flooring
PVC flooring and rubber flooring are both resilient flooring, but differ:
◆ composition and production process is different: rubber floor is divided into homogeneous and heterogeneous. Homogeneous floor refers to natural rubber or synthetic rubber-based, color, composition of a single layer or a multilayer structure consistent vulcanization floor; heterogeneous rubber floor flooring refers to natural or synthetic rubber-based, structural On includes a wear layer and the other on the composition and (or) design on a different compaction layers, compacted layer containing the skeleton layer.
◆ color difference: colored rubber floor more difficult, because the rubber has a strong absorption color, so most of the color in a single rubber flooring; PVC floor and the color is very much in any combination, can give designers more Choose.
There are differences in the degree of difficulty
◆ installation: PVC floor texture is light, quick and easy installation; heavy rubber flooring, installation is more laborious. And rubber flooring installation method requires more stringent, if the method does not bubble will appear on the requirements of a more perfect self-leveling ground, otherwise it will exaggerate the grassroots defects.
◆ market demand and abrasion resistance difference: Due to the high price of rubber flooring, only in some high-end places, relatively narrow range; and PVC flooring because of its high cost and therefore is widely used, the market has great potential. Also rubber floor abrasion resistance, at the airport, railway stations and other places large flow of people as well as airplanes, trains, subways, cars, boats and other vehicles are applicable.
<3>; and carpet contrast
◆ composition and production process is different: the carpet is cotton, linen, wool, silk, grass and other natural fibers or synthetic chemical-based raw materials, by hand or mechanical processes knotted, tufted or woven material made of ground-laid.
◆ performance and maintenance There are differences: carpet is flammable items, fear of fire, fear of water, fear of tide, and maintenance is very troublesome, very easy to dirty, easy to filth and bacteria. The fire retardant PVC floor, afraid not afraid of water influx, care very simple wipe with a cloth, good stain resistance, antibacterial effect.
<4>; compare with tiles
◆ composition and production process is different: the so-called tiles, is an acid refractory metal oxide and semi-metal oxide, by grinding, mixing, pressing, glazing, sintering of the process, and the formation of ceramic or stone etc. construction or decoration materials, the total call tiles. Much of its raw materials by mixing clay, quartz sand, etc. from.
◆ performance and maintenance are different: tile is not slippery and icy texture, it is also troublesome maintenance, very easy to dirty.
◆ Install a difference: Tile is heavy, install more strenuous and difficult to move away after installation, can not be reused. The PVC floor light texture, installation is very simple, in the original floor coverings directly without compression space, so the transformation of old buildings is very fit. Compare marble and other stone; <5>
◆ stone very heavy to transport and construction has brought a lot of burden, especially for high-rise buildings of the main structure would cause great harm role.
◆ slippery stone water texture cold and radioactive marble, granite containing radon and other harmful.
◆ marble expensive, but the effect is laid on the grade, suitable for high-end places.
<6>; and wooden floors contrast
Wood floors can be divided into three categories: solid wood flooring, parquet and laminate flooring. ◆ Solid wood flooring is a natural material, has irreplaceable advantages of synthetic material, non-toxic, odorless, comfortable, cool. But it also is expensive, large hardwood resource consumption, laying large installation, easy maintenance (fear of fire, fear of water, fear tide) with the relative humidity changes have a greater dimensional changes and lack of floor width direction.
◆ appearance with parquet wood floors and the same beautiful wood grain, good dimensional stability, ease of deployment and maintenance. But still can not get rid of the fear of fire, fear of water, fear the influx of shortcomings, such as PVC flooring is not environmentally friendly, nor wear and PVC floor.
◆ strengthen the base of wood flooring is a good medium-density or high-density fiberboard and particleboard, dimensional stability, surface layer is impregnated decorative paper containing wear-resistant materials to ensure that the surface layer of wear resistance to cigarette ignition, scratch and anti-pollution performance, which is compared to the previous two terms, and PVC floor superior wear and stain resistance than there is a considerable gap. <7>; and plastic flooring leather contrast
◆ leather and PVC plastic floor floor is not the same kind of product, although it was known as the PVC flooring leather flooring, plastic flooring, but in fact confused two floors.
◆ plastic flooring (vinyl flooring) belongs to a very low-end products, the main component of plastic, fear of fire, easy to aging, life is very short. <8>; bamboo flooring comparison
◆ bamboo flooring is made of natural wood processing, environmental protection. But bamboo flooring also belong fear of water, fear of fire, fear tide, the indoor temperature and humidity sensitive, easy expansion and deformation or shrinkage cracks, severe and even moldy.
◆ bamboo flooring surface is painted surfaces, poor wear resistance, anti-scratch ability is poor.
◆ bamboo flooring maintenance problems, require frequent waxing maintenance, in addition to poor corrosion resistance
