What is the material of self-leveling for home decoration? What are the advantages and disadvantages?

Self-leveling, due to its excellent performance, may lead many friends to choose self-leveling. Since the self-leveling is finished on the ground, it is very smooth and clean on the whole, without any gap, which is really a great advantage compared with our traditional floor tile or wood floor. But we must be careful about the choice of self-leveling in home decoration. Because self-leveling is a new material after all, poor selection may cause many problems. So before choosing self-leveling ground, we should first make clear the defects of self-leveling, and then decide whether to choose it.

（1） : What material is self-leveling?

The self-leveling we mentioned here mainly refers to the self-leveling used in home decoration. This is the common cement self-leveling. You must remember that resin self-leveling or epoxy self-leveling is generally not allowed in home decoration, because this kind of self-leveling has relatively large pollution. Therefore, in this article, the household miscellaneous arena focuses on solving the problem of cement self-leveling.

① Material composition. The so-called cement self-leveling mortar is the cement self-leveling mortar. Its raw material is selected special cement, added with selected aggregate, and then added with a certain amount of dry powder resin, as well as many kinds of modified additives, and finally made into a dry powder product. This is what we call the raw material of cement self-leveling.

② Construction method. The use of cement self-leveling is very simple. It only needs to add a certain amount of tap water according to the requirements of cement self-leveling products, and then fully mix with water to form a slurry with excellent fluidity. For example, if we pour the mixed slurry on the ground, it can be leveled automatically. Of course, it also needs to be paved manually to realize rapid automatic leveling.

③ Material characteristics. The cement can be leveled automatically after being paved on the ground, but it can not flow far away like water. So it has a certain scope and time limit. Like the construction temperature, if it is normal, it will solidify in 3-5 minutes. In this process, the cement self-leveling is directional flow at a certain flow rate and direction. If it exceeds the time, it will stop flowing and start to solidify. This is the characteristic of cement self-leveling material.

④ Advantages of materials. Cement self-leveling can be used for various leveling cement-based materials of various ground bases. This material has a good curing rate. Moreover, the construction work is very simple, which can greatly improve the construction speed. In addition, cement self-leveling has good stability after construction, which can realize large area seamless construction. And reduce the surface finishing and treatment. When the cement self-leveling is completely formed, it can not only level the ground, but also have good sealing, moisture-proof and mildew-proof functions.

What are the disadvantages of cement self-leveling?

Although the above briefly introduces some characteristics and advantages of cement self-leveling, if we want to choose cement self-leveling, the ground must be clear about its disadvantages. Because the shortcoming of self-leveling is the decisive factor that determines whether we choose. As for the disadvantages of cement self-leveling, the following five points are mainly included in the summary of the household miscellaneous field.

① There is certain pollution. No matter what kind of self-leveling, its raw materials will be found to contain a certain amount of rubber powder. And we put this kind of rubber powder on our indoor floor to form the decorative material of the floor. The use of this material is excessive, and there is some pollution more or less. Especially after the ground is heated, the release of pollutants is very serious. Therefore, cement self-leveling is not allowed on the ground with floor heating.

② The requirements for the grass-roots level are very high. For our traditional wooden floor or ceramic tile paving, the requirements for the base layer are not particularly high. Like laying tiles, there are almost no requirements for the ground base; Paving the floor requires better flatness. Self-leveling is different. Self-leveling first requires that the flatness of the secondary ground must meet its requirements, and then the strength of the ground base must meet the requirements. If it does not meet the requirements, there will be different levels of self-leveling. In addition, peeling may occur after a period of time.

③ The requirements for construction technology are relatively high. This actually leads to the relatively high construction cost of cement self-leveling. If the craftsmanship of the construction master we choose is not good, the ground may crack in the later stage. And there may be contact marks on the ground. Therefore, when we choose self-leveling, we have very high requirements for construction, which is very different from the traditional wooden floor or ceramic tile.

④ The abrasion resistance of self-leveling floor is very poor. For example, our self-leveling ground will leave obvious scratches when it rubs against hard objects, which may cause damage if it is serious. These conditions greatly affect the beauty, and these scratches are difficult to repair. If we have mobile furniture or hard materials in our home, this is inevitable. Therefore, the requirement of cement self-leveling floor is very high.

⑤ Generally, it is not particularly good with the interior decoration. It can be said that the self-leveling floor is a personalized product, that is to say, only a few friends like the decoration style of the self-leveling floor. In fact, for most families, they will not like this decoration style too much. Therefore, when considering the diversity and selectivity of decoration styles, we need to be cautious about the choice of self-leveling.
