Ratings come from 30 × 30 mm samples cast at each product's prescribed thickness, cured for 7 days and fully submerged at 20–25°C. On a real floor, a spill only touches the surface, so performance is usually better. Elevated temperatures accelerate chemical attack. How to read these ratings.
Questions about copper sulphate solution
Which ASP floors resist copper sulphate solution (30% at 20°C)?
Rated 5 (excellent, no significant deterioration after long-term contact): ASP-primeStd, ASP-coat500, ASP-coat1000, ASP-coatSL, ASP-screedPTS, ASP-screedSTB, ASP-coatWBE, ASP-creteSL, ASP-creteMD, ASP-creteRT, ASP-creteVS and ASP-coatPU.
Is epoxy flooring resistant to copper sulphate solution?
Some ASP epoxy systems are rated excellent for copper sulphate solution at 30% at 20°C. Check the exact concentration and temperature in the table, as ratings change with both.
Is polyurethane flooring resistant to copper sulphate solution?
Some ASP polyurethane systems are rated excellent for copper sulphate solution at 30% at 20°C.
