ElectraThane / ESD Sealer for Concrete

Economical, Long Life, Beautiful Shine, ESD Compliant

 

ELECTRATHANE ANTI STATIC ESD CONTROL CONCRETE SEALER!

Today's reality dictates an increasingly daunting task. To meet the latest ANSI ESD static control standards and assure your successful manufacturing of static sensitive electronics esd flooring is a must! Yet in today's economy does it make since to pay $7.00 to 10.00 per installed square foot for esd tiles, thick set esd epoxy or an anti-static rubber floor? Most think NOT! ElectraThane seals concrete with an effective static control formulation designed to meet today's latest requirement and eliminate dust production of the concrete slab for less than at a fraction of the cost of standard esd flooring!

 

WHY A STATIC CONTROL CONCRETE SEALER?

Cost, Performance and Longevity. A typical concrete slab will post fairly good electrical conductivity due to the moisture content of the concrete.  Unfortunately this electrical conductivity fluctuates dramatically with the ambient humidity and moisture content of the slab. In addition, unsealed concrete is dusty, absorbs contaminants such as oils and liquids and ends up being a time consuming maintenance nightmare!

EXPERIENCE THE ELECTRATHANE DIFFERENCE!

ElectraThane conductive sealant features the addition of 316 micro-spherical stainless steel in concert with conductive urethane to provide exceptional wear resistant protection and easy cleaning of ElectraGuard ESD Epoxy.  ElectraThane may also be used on standard concrete or for elimination of  nuisance static generation encountered with Garland and Stonehard standard epoxy flooring.

ElectraThane also features excellent recoatability and (in the case of aggressive contamination) may be removed (with effort) and re-applied. ElectraThane is designed for mop on applications of 2 to 3 coats and is a perfect substrate for ElectraGlaze ESD floor finish (ElectraGlaze provides exceptional gloss and may be high speed polished to an incredible luster).

APPLICATION IS FAST, EASY AND LOW ODOR!
Best results are obtained when ElectraThane is applied to cured concrete surfaces which are 60 Deg F. or warmer and in relative humidity conditions of < 50%. Thoroughly vacuum slab to remove any loose dirt or dust.  If contaminants such as oil and grease have soaked into the slab wash with ElectraClean rinse slab and allow to dry completely prior to application of ElectraThane. Three coats will provide the optimum gloss and durability. Apply thin even coats using new loop end rayon or other non linting finish mops, allowing ElectraThane to dry, (depending on humidity and temperature) for approximately 60 minutes between coats. Typical life span of product is at least 3 years. ElectraThane may be effectively recoated without removal. For best results do not burnish.  If a higher luster is required top coat this material with one thin coat of ElectraGlaze floor finish prior to high speed polishing.

 

EASY TO MAINTAIN!

ElectraThane is an extremely durable Anti Static concrete sealer. After application and curing of ElectraThane routine maintenance (to be expected with any floor) is all that is required to maintain the luster and conductivity of the finish.  It's important to remove abrasives that can scratch and degrade the conductivity by dry mopping (usually on a daily basis).  On an occasional basis (most of our clients prefer to do this once every week or two) damp mop the floor with a diluted mixture of ElectraClean and water and allow to dry. Note: Use only ElectraClean to damp mop your ElectraThane floor, NEVER wash any esd floor with plain water. ElectraThane does not readily lend itself to high speed polishing or burnishing.  If a high speed polishing (produces ultimate shine) is desirable top coat the ElectraThane with a single coat of ElectraGlaze prior to polishing.
