Abstract

The invention concerns a method for sanitation of elastic floors covered with crosslinked polymeric systems, by treating the floors with an abrasive cleaning pad, with a solvent and a surfactant. The invention also concerns the agents and cleaning pads used in said method.

Claims (13)

1 Claims 1. Process for renovating resilient floors coated with crosslinked polymer systems by treating the floors with an abrasively acting element under mechanical pressure and, if desired, with rotation, characterised in that a solvent- and surfactant-containing agent is applied onto the floor before and/or during treatment with said abrasive element and wherein the stated abrasively acting element is a cleaning pad and yields an abrasion value of between 1 and 2 g in the Schiefer test.
2. Process according to claim 1, characterized in that the surfactants present in the surfactants present in the surfactant-containing agents are selected from the groups of nonionic, anionic and amphoteric surfactants.
3. Process according to one of claims 1 or 2, characterised in that the stated solvent is selected from among the group of alcoholic solvents, acyclic glycol ethers and solvents based on cyclic ethers and mixtures thereof.
4. Process according to claim 3, characterised in that the solvent is a mixture of an alcoholic solvent and/or an acyclic glycol ether with a cyclic ether, preferably 4-butyrolactone.
5. Process according to one of claims 3 or 4, characterised in that the glycol ether is selected from among the methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl and phenyl ethers of ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, propylene glycol and di- and tripropylene glycol.
6. Process according to one or more of claims 3 to 5, characterised in that, in the stated surfactant-containing agent, the acyclic glycol ethers and the solvents based on cyclic ethers are present in a ratio by weight one to the other of 1:4-4:1, preferably of 2:1-1:2.
7. Process according to one or more of claims 1 to 6, characterised in that the ratio by weight of the sum of all surfactant components to the sum of all solvent components in the stated surfactant-containing agent is between 1:20 and 10:1, preferably between 1:5 and 1:1.
8. Process according to claim 1, characterised in that the cleaning pad contains polymer fibres, preferably selected from among nylon and/or polyester fibres, which are cut to differing lengths and are arranged in an open, non-woven fibre structure.
9. Process according to one of claims 1 or 8, characterised in that abrasive grains are scattered in the cleaning pad, which grains are preferably immobilised with a durable adhesive.
10. Process according to one ore more of claims 1, 8 or 9, characterised in that the weight of the pad at a thickness of 24 to 32, preferably of 26 to 30 mm, is between 1300 and 1800, preferably of between 1450 and 1550 g per square metre.
11. Process according to one of claims 9 or 10, characterised in that the stated abrasive grains constitute 30 to 40 wt.%, preferably 33 to 38 wt.%, relative to the entire cleaning pad.
12. Use of a floor maintenance auxiliary agent, said auxiliary agent containing at least one surfactant selected from among nonionic, anionic and amphoteric surfactants, together with at least one solvent selected from the group of alcoholic solvents, acyclic glycol ethers and solvents based on cyclic ethers, together with mixtures thereof for the mechanical/chemical renovation of crosslinked polymer-based floor coating systems.
13. Renovation pad for use in the mechanical/chemical renovation of crosslinked polymer-based floor coating systems, said pad containing an open, non-woven fibre structure of polymer fibres cut to differing lengths and preferably based on nylon and/or polyester fibres, together with, relative to the entire cleaning pad, 30 to 40 wt.% of abrasive substances, which are scattered in the cleaning pad, wherein an abrasion value of between 1 g and 2 g is achieved in the Schiefer test.
