Rayson StaticGuard CX90

Rayson StaticGuard CX90 is a two-component, solvent-free conductive epoxy flooring that gives ESD-protected areas a self-smoothing, permanently conductive, chemically resistant wearing surface.

Best for

Best for electronics production, data centres and other ESD-protected areas that need a grounded, seamless floor with high mechanical strength.

Overview

StaticGuard CX90 is the static-control floor in the Rayson range. The solvent-free, 100%-solids epoxy self-smooths into a seamless surface whose conductivity is built into the cured matrix — not a surface treatment that wears away. Measured electrostatic behaviour falls in the 10⁴–10⁶ ohm range on average, placing floors in conductive ESD territory when installed and earthed correctly.

Mechanically it is a serious floor: tensile and flexural strength up to 40 N/mm² in quartz-filled testing, abrasion loss around 100 mg in standard Taber testing, and excellent impact and chemical resistance. Typical duties include electronics facilities, data centres, antistatic floors and walls, EMI/RFI-shielded rooms, pharmaceutical facilities, aerospace hangars and storage areas.

Film thickness is critical to performance: the system targets 1.0–1.5 mm, and applying in excess of the stated thickness reduces conductivity. Grounding points, earthing layout and post-cure resistance verification should be planned with the facility engineer from day one.

Recommended uses

  • ESD-protected and dissipative-compliant areas
  • Electronics facilities and data centres
  • Antistatic flooring and walls
  • EMI and RFI shielding installations
  • Pharmaceutical facilities and aerospace hangars
  • Warehouses and storage areas requiring static control

Suitable substrates

  • Mechanically prepared concrete (minimum 28 days old, moisture content below 5%)
  • Substrate pull-off strength above 1.5 N/mm² after preparation

Key benefits

  • Permanent conductivity through the coating body (average 10⁴–10⁶ ohms)
  • 100% solids, solvent-free and low VOC
  • Self-smoothing, seamless, easy-to-clean finish
  • High bond strength with excellent impact and chemical resistance

System position: Finish

A finish is the top coat. It provides the final appearance, cleanability and resistance to traffic, chemicals or UV.

Application method

  • Steel trowel
  • Notched rake
  • Squeegee and roller
  • Spike roller immediately after trowelling

Technical information

The figures below are a guide for planning. Site conditions and workmanship affect results — confirm the details for your project with our technical team.

Coverage Minimum 2.25 kg binder per m² per coat at approximately 1.5 mm (optionally +0.25 kg quartz sand); approximately 5–8 m²/L at 75 µm DFT for thin coats; maximum ~2.5 kg/m² binder plus filler at 1.5 mm
Mixing Two pre-weighed parts, mix ratio 4:1 (A:B) by weight; mix mechanically for at least 2–3 minutes; pot life up to 25 minutes at 28 °C
Drying & curing Full cure approximately 7 days; minimise heavy traffic for 72 hours after application
Pack sizes Part A 16 kg / Part B 4 kg per set

Limitations

  • Applying above the stated film thickness reduces conductivity — thickness control is critical
  • Measured resistance readings are affected by ESD clothing, ambient conditions, measurement equipment, floor cleaning and test personnel
  • Minimum substrate temperature 5 °C; curing between +10 °C and +35 °C; concrete moisture content maximum 5%
  • Requires planned earthing points and post-installation resistance verification

Not suitable for

  • Areas with no earthing provision — conductivity is useless without a ground path
  • Exterior UV-exposed surfaces
  • Thick-build applications beyond the stated film thickness — conductivity drops
  • Substrates with moisture above 5%

Recommended systems

ESD floor system

  1. Mechanically prepare the slab and repair defects with Rayson PatchBond TX80
  2. Prime with Rayson PrimeBond E20 and install earthing points to the agreed layout (system primer selection to be confirmed by the Rayson technical team)
  3. Apply Rayson StaticGuard CX90 at the specified thickness and spike-roll to de-aerate
  4. Verify floor resistance after cure with documented testing

Frequently asked questions

Is StaticGuard CX90 conductive or dissipative?

Its average electrostatic behaviour is in the 10⁴–10⁶ ohm range, which sits in conductive ESD territory. The reading achieved on site also depends on installation, earthing, cleaning and how the measurement is taken — always verify against your facility standard.

Why must the film thickness not be exceeded?

Conductivity depends on the conductive network through the coating. Applying thicker than specified increases resistance and can push the floor out of its target range.

How is the floor earthed?

Grounding points are installed as part of the system, connected to the building earth by the electrical contractor. Agree the earthing layout with the facility engineer before installation.

How do we prove the floor meets its ESD target?

With documented resistance testing after full cure, using the measurement method your facility standard specifies. Rayson recommends retesting on a scheduled basis thereafter.

What cleaning products can be used?

Use cleaners that do not leave insulating films — waxes and polymer polishes can raise surface resistance and defeat the static control.

When can production equipment move back in?

Keep heavy traffic off for at least 72 hours and allow around 7 days for full cure before resistance verification. Confirm programme timings with our technical team.
