8、SI 07-1999 Foreword This Part of BS 6263 has been prepared under the direction of the Textiles and Clothing Standards Policy Committee and is a revision of BS 6263-2 which is superseded and withdrawn. This Part of this standard is one of a series of Parts of BS 6263 for care and maintenance of floor
9、 surfaces, formerly CP 209. In accordance with BSI policy, in which all new and revised codes of practice are to be published with a number in the BS series, this Part of this standard was designated BS 6263-2 when it was first published in 1982. The first Part of the series, CP 209-1, deals with me
10、thods of providing polished finish to wooden flooring using the following: a) waxed finishes without prior sealing; b) treatment with seals; c) treatment with oils. Suitable flooring treatments for a variety of types of building are also given. When CP 209-1 is revised it will be renumbered BS 6263-
11、1. This Part of BS 6263 gives recommendations for the care and maintenance of the range of sheet and tile flooring materials covered by BS 8203, i.e. cork, linoleum, plastics and rubber. Recommendations are given for the treatment of flooring in particular environments and types of building. Advice
12、on the maintenance of static-controlled and electrically conductive flooring is also given. The principal change from the previous edition is that this Part of this standard now covers recommendations for textured flooring. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions
13、of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pages i and ii, pages1 to 10, an insid
14、e back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the amendment table on the inside front cover.BS6263-2:1991 BSI 07-1999 1 1 Scope This Part of BS 6263 gives recommendations as a basis for the initi
15、al treatment and subsequent maintenance of cork, linoleum, plastics and rubber flooring in sheet and tile form. General guidance on the care and maintenance of flooring in particular environments and special buildings is given. NOTE 1The maintenance system should be tailored to suit individual situa
16、tions. NOTE 2The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 2 Definitions For the purposes of this Part of BS 6263 the following definitions apply. 2.1 Flooring materials 2.1.1 cork tiles tiles made from cork granules, heated and compressed to form a
17、n agglomerate. The granules are bound together by the natural cork resin, this sometimes being supplemented by a proportion of synthetic resin binder 2.1.2 linoleum flooring in sheet or tile form traditionally made by calendering on a hessian or other type of base a composition consisting of oxidize
18、d or polymerized linseed oil, resins, wood flour, cork and inorganic fillers. Toughened and indentation resistant grades of linoleum have been developed by changes in the type of drying oils and resins 2.1.3 cork carpet material similar to conventional linoleum with the cork flour replaced by a high
19、er proportion of granular cork 2.1.4 rubber flooring flooring consisting of a vulcanized composition of natural and/or synthetic rubber, antioxidant, fillers, plasticizers, colourants and vulcanizing ingredients. It may be in sheet or tile form and may be of homogeneous composition throughout the th

21、 inorganic fillers and pigments 2.1.6 PVC (vinyl) semi-flexible tiles tiles made from a material prepared by masticating and calendering a mixture of polymeric binder, mineral fillers and pigments. The binder consists mainly of polymerized vinyl chloride, a vinyl chloride copolymer or a mixture of t

36、ing agent applied by sprayBS6263-2:1991 BSI 07-1999 3 3 Materials, equipment and their use 3.1 Water-based materials 3.1.1 Cleaners Water-based cleaners are divided into three broad classes of detergents: neutral detergents, mildly alkaline detergents and strongly alkaline detergents. They have the
37、advantage over soap and soap powders that they do not form a scum with hard water. Neutral and mildly alkaline detergents have a mild action and aqueous solutions should be applied by mop for the removal of surface marks and soiling. Mildly alkaline detergents used essentially for cleaning usually c
38、ontain soluble alkaline salts such as carbonates, phosphates but do not contain metasilicates. Strongly alkaline detergents used essentially for stripping some types of old polish film contain metasilicates or caustic soda. Solutions containing ammonia or an amine can be used to remove metallized po
39、lish films. The solution should be applied to the flooring surface and allowed to remain in contact for several minutes to soften and dissolve the polish film. The surface should then be machine cleaned using an abrasive pad, thoroughly rinsed with clean water to remove any alkalinity and mopped dry
40、. Residual alkali on the flooring surface can affect the adhesion of further applications of emulsion polish. It could cause loss of gloss and possible whitening and powdering of the polish film. Germicidal cleaners can be used for cleaning a flooring surface and disinfecting it at the same time. 3.
41、1.2 Polishes Emulsion polishes are suitable for the initial treatment and maintenance of most of the types of flooring covered by this code (see clause 5). They should be applied as a thin coat by mop or applicator and allowed to dry before being exposed to traffic or the application of a second coa
42、t. Dry-bright emulsion polish will not normally require machine buffing at the time of initial application. 3.1.3 Seals Water-based seals may be used on worn or porous floorings before top dressing with an emulsion polish. They should be applied by mop or applicator and allowed to dry. 3.2 Solvent-b
43、ased materials 3.2.1 Strippers Solvent-based wax removers are used for the removal of film deposited from solvent-based polishes. They should be applied sparingly by mop and be allowed to remain in contact for several minutes to soften the wax film before removal using a machine fitted with a synthe
44、tic fibre web pad. The stripping of solvent-based polishes should be avoided if at all possible. 3.2.2 Cleaners Solvent-based liquid cleaners are used for the removal of excessive dirt deposits on solvent-based polishes. This can be achieved by damp mopping or light scrubbing. 3.2.3 Polishes The use
45、 of solvent-based polishes is confined to the maintenance of cork, cork carpet and linoleum to which they should be applied thinly and evenly by mop or applicator, allowed to dry and then dry burnished. Paste solvent-based polish, with its higher solids content, is recommended for the initial treatm
46、ent of porous floorings. Solvent-based polishes may be applied directly to linoleum. 3.2.4 Seals Solvent-based seals are mainly used on untreated cork tiles and cork carpet. They should be applied thinly and evenly to the flooring surface and allowed to dry thoroughly. The surface should be dry burn
47、ished with a fine-grade fibre web pad and the dust removed before the application of the final finish. Emulsion polishes may be used over these seals. NOTEOleoresinous or plastics seals that are damaged may require removal by sanding before retreatment. 3.3 Equipment 3.3.1 General Floor cleaning mac
48、hines should comply with BS5415-1 and BS 5415-2. 3.3.2 Fibre web pads Fibre web pads, colour graded in degrees of coarseness, are used in conjunction with rotary action floor maintenance machines for stripping, cleaning and dry burnishing floorings. 3.3.3 Abrasive mesh discs Abrasive mesh discs are
49、available in different grit sizes. They are not normally used for routine maintenance.BS6263-2:1991 4 BSI 07-1999 3.3.4 Rotary or cylindrical brushes Brushes are available in a range of types varying from coarse wire for scouring to soft fibre for polishing. 3.3.5 Applicators and mops The head pads of applicators should be of wool and/or cotton fibres or of cellular material. The applicator or mop should be used lightly wetted, and used with a minimum of pressure. 3.3.6 Mop sweepers The heads of mop sweepers should be of cotton, wool or synthetic fibre and may be treated to at
