Dorsicoat® – coated quartz

Dorsicoat for flooring

Dorsicoat sands for flooring reproduce the same grain sizes as standard traditional sands, without any modifications, but with the advantage of being free of respirable dust. In this way, as with the fine, micronised products, healthy working environments and more comfortable conditions for applicators are guaranteed. They can be used as dusting sands or in ready-to-use mixes for making self-levelling screeds or floors.

EXAMPLES OF DORSICOAT PRODUCTS using EP – PU resins PQK 7 (0.6-1.2) – PQK 8 (0.3-0.8) – PQK 9 (0.1-0.5) For dusting and coatings DF 100 (0-0.3) for self-levelling floors PQK B1 (0.06-2.5) for screeds

DORSICOAT PQK: Quartz sand for dusting, coatings, ready-to-use screed mixtures, anti-slip finishes and self-levelling coatings using epoxy and polyurethane resins.

Also available in PQW version for use with MMA acrylic resins

Dorsicoat, the “coated” version of Dorsilit is the only product line tested by IGF in accordance with DIN-EN 15051-3 standards and classified as having a “very low” dust content.

Micronized Dorsicoat

The quartz flours and micronised quartz fillers of the Dorsilit line are derived from the milling of high-purity Dorfner quartz sands with SiO2 content > 99 %, avoiding possible ferrous contamination during the production process.

Micronised Dorsicoats are ultra-fine quartz fillers, coated to avoid fine dust during processing. Tests of spillage and use of DORSICOAT quartz show the almost total absence of dust within it.

It improves the safety of working conditions by creating a more comfortable environment and avoiding room cleaning. Reduces pollution from micro-particles, thus making it possible to work at the same time as other production activities.

It is compatible with epoxy and polyurethane binders and water-based binders.

Inert when in contact with other substances and with no change in grain size compared to conventional products with a wide range of products and uses.
