SPC flooring is mainly made of polyvinyl chloride(PVC), added with marble powder, and produced through processes such as plasticization, calendering, heat treatment, coating, and punching on a sheet-like continuous substrate. Its biggest difference from traditional flooring is that it is environmentally friendly, wear-resistant and fire-resistant. SPC flooring is manufactured by adding stone powder and additives to PVC resin through high-temperature calendering and adding a wear-resistant layer on the surface. It cannot contain harmful substances such as formaldehyde and is a 100% formaldehyde-free environmentally friendly flooring. At the same time, SPC flooring does not require felling trees and damaging the ecology. Therefore, it has obtained the title of "new environmental protection material". This is also a major advantage of SPC flooring compared with traditional flooring materials.
In addition, the floor surface plasticity is a major feature of the SPC flooring, SPC flooring to change the wood floor antique solid wood color, tile pattern limited regret, can be freely printed colorful patterns, can also make imitation wood floor, imitation stone, imitation tile and so on square effect. According to the store sales staff, the use of SPC flooring in the space will not leave a large number of gaps like wood floors and tiles, which is easier to clean. In addition, the SPC flooring also has the characteristics of simple and quick replacement, recycling and so on.
How To Use SPC Flooring At Home
Suitable for the elderly room, children's room. For the choice of home paving materials, many people will still adhere to the traditional wood floor, tile, at how can SPC flooring find a breakthrough? This can be selected according to the material characteristics of the SPC flooring. For example, the use of surface plasticity, showing different colors and patterns, SPC flooring shop can be used as a decorative material for the space background wall: the use of waterproof and moisture resistance, can be used in a large area of the characteristics of SPC flooring shop suitable for kitchen, bathroom and other home space. At the same time, it can also create a colorful sense of space in the children's room. In addition, the SPC flooring has certain elasticity and thermal insulation characteristics, and is also suitable for application in the elderly room, which can create a safer and more comfortable living environment for the elderly at home.
Seven Steps Evaluate SPC flooring
1.Examine the color
Focus on the color of the "SPC flooring base material". Pure materials typically exhibit a beige hue, while mixed materials may appear in shades of gray, cyan, or white. Recycled materials tend to be gray-black or black. The cost varies significantly depending on the material type.
2.Assess texture:
The surface of an SPC flooring substrate should feel smooth and slightly moist. Recycled or mixed materials often feel dry and lack moisture. Additionally, check the flatness and fit between two pieces after splicing for quality assurance.
3. Smell
This is a very poor individual will have a little smell, most containing recycled materials and mixed materials can still do not smell.
4. Test the light transmittance
The mobile phone flashlight is exposed to the floor, has good light transmission, and the admixtures and recycled materials are not transparent. Or poor light transmission.
5. Measure the thickness
It is best to use a caliper or micrometer to measure the thickness of the floor, and the actual thickness is about 0.2mm more than the marked thickness, such as: Regular manufacturers according to the production standard marked 4.0 thickness, the caliper or micrometer measurement should be about 4.2, because with the wear-resistant layer and UV layer thickness, the actual measurement is 4.0, then you actually buy is 3.7-3.8 thickness, which is commonly known as jersey-cutting. Other links we can not see can imagine what extent this manufacturer can do.
6.Test latch strength
The floor edge of the female buckle (that is, the lock leakage part) part, hard to break the lock, the strength of the poor quality is not very large, the strength of the pure new material will be much larger, it is not easy to break.
7.Conduct tear resistance testing
This is not easy to operate, it is necessary to collect several samples of several merchants, conduct damage combing in the corner part, tear the color film layer and the SPC flooring substrate part, and see the bond strength of the color film layer and the substrate, which determines whether it is easy to peel in the next few years. The bonding strength of pure new material is the largest, followed by others. If it is not possible to operate, it does not matter, basically through the above steps to judge the quality of business products this indicator will not be bad.
