Acid Proofing 400°C

ACID RESISTANT TILES

Floor, wall and channel tiles for chemical plant, laboratory and industrial areas

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Acid resistant tiles are thin-section vitrified ceramic tiles used to protect floors, walls, drainage channels, and work surfaces from chemical spillage. Unlike standard ceramic floor tiles, acid resistant tiles achieve near-zero porosity through high-temperature firing, and are installed with acid-resistant mortar and grout to form a fully impervious chemical-resistant surface.

INSTALLATION NOTES

  1. 1

    Substrate: smooth, level concrete (± 3mm in 3m) — grind high spots, fill low spots with epoxy mortar

  2. 2

    Use only acid-resistant tile adhesive mortar (furan-based for strong acids, potassium silicate for milder duty)

  3. 3

    Lay tiles with minimum 3mm joint width — do not butt joint

  4. 4

    Grout all joints with acid-resistant grout immediately after tile adhesive has set (24–48 hrs)

  5. 5

    Seal around drains and wall junctions with acid-resistant flexible sealant

  6. 6

    Cure for 5–7 days before any chemical exposure

  7. 7

    Test: cover with dilute acid solution for 24 hours before commissioning
