ESD Primers

EPHB CR High-Build Primer for ESD Coatings

A high-build primer formulated specifically for applications involving static-sensitive products or equipment. EPHB CR is easily applied and penetrates deep into the concrete. The result is a primed surface that works in conjunction with Garland's ESD-control coatings.

PR 300 Vinyl Tile Epoxy Primer

PR 300 is an ideal primer for ESD applications  where a static-control coating is being applied over vinyl tile. It is formulated with a special curing agent that provides extra bond strength, assuring a secure bond to the tile. PR 300 combines high strength and flexibility, enabling the primer to move with the tile's natural flexing, so the tile won't loosen.

ESD PR1 Conductive Black Primer

If a conductive floor coating is required, ESD PR1 can be applied as a base coat before using an ESD topcoat. This black, conductive, carbon-filled primer is applied at 6 mills (2.5 x 10⁴-10⁶ range). It should not be used with an ESD urethane topcoat.

ESD PR3 Static-Dissipative Black Primer

This primer was specially formulated to be used with Garland's Chemi-LDR 610 ESD Slurry Coating when a static dissipative floor is required. ESD PR3 allows Garland to be flexible when designing a system to meet your needs. It is a 100% solids epoxy system.

ESD Coatings

Because ESD coatings differ in their characteristics and benefits, several different types of ESD products may be required for one facility. For example, areas with heavy tow-motor traffic, light foot traffic, clean room assembly/manufacturing, solvent/chemical storage, and product handling might each require several different ESD products. That's why Garland offers a full line of ESD-control coatings.

Problems such as odor, moisture in new concrete, osmotic pressure, etc. also require an innovative product line. No single polymer type or ESD product will handle all of the conditions that can experienced in the field. Garland Floor's dedication to research and development in ESD control allows us to offer the most extensive and cost-effective ESD product line on the market today.

Garland ESD-control coatings offer the following benefits:

• Consistent resistance measurements when tested at 10-500 volts.
• Eliminates hot and cold spots.
• <15 volts BVG (when utilizing conductive footwear). (Chemi-Top 950 ESD and Chemi-LDR 610 ESD <50; Chemi-Cote ESD EN 7000<20.)
• Dissipate a 5000-volt charge to zero in<0.1 seconds (72°F @ 12% RH).
• Maintain electrical conductivity throughout the entire thickness.
• Do not depend on relative humidity (RH) for electrical properties.
• Electrical properties guaranteed for five years.

Thin-Film ESD Epoxy Coatings

Chemi-Cote ESD EP 1000 Epoxy Coating

High-gloss, high-solids, low-odor ESD coating. Typical installation requires one coat.

Chemi-Cote™ ESD EP 3000 Epoxy Coating

High-gloss, solvent-borne, VOC-compliant coating with a slight orange peel finish. Typical installation requires two coats.

Thick-Film  ESD Epoxy Coatings

Chemi-LDR™ 610 ESD Self-Leveler Epoxy

This high-gloss, low-odor, high solids, 60-mil, ESD self-leveling coating is designed to be applied to floors that are too rough for a thin-film coating, but which have not deteriorated to the point where a heavy-duty floor resurfacer is needed to repair them. Typical installation is over a conductive or static-dissipative primer.

Chemi-Cote™ ESD EN 7000 Epoxy Novalac

This high-solids, low-order, epoxy Novalac with an orange peel finish offers excellent chemical resistance against strong acids and caustics. Typical installation requires one coat.

Chemi-Cote™ VE 3000G Vinyl Ester Lining/Coating

This electrostatic-control, vinyl ester lining/ coating is designed to be used in areas exposed to harsh chemicals or in secondary containment applications. Typical installation requires two coats over Garland's VE Primer.

Thin-Film Polyurethane Coatings

Chemi-Cote™ ESD UR 5000 Polyurethane

This solvent-borne, VOC-compliant, UV-stable aliphatic polyester polyurethane coating comes in a slight non-skid texture. Our urethanes also offer higher chemical resistance and are UV-stable. Typical installation requires one or two coats.

Chemi-Cote ESD WBUR 7000 Waterborne Urethane

This waterborne, low-odor aliphatic urethane offers easy sprayability for walls or workstations. It also features fast cure cycles, low VOC and easy repairability. Typical installation requires one or two coats.

ESD Resurfacer

Chemi-Top 950 ESD Resurfacer

This low-odor, high-solids epoxy resurfacer has electrical properties throughout its entire thickness. Typical installation is a 3/16" topping applied by raking and then power-troweling. Used for badly damaged concrete or areas exposed to high abuse. Only available in a conductive range.
