Acid brick is an industry standard and a long lasting floor system that protects against chemically aggressive environments. These systems utilize protective membranes in conjunction with chemically resistant mortars/setting beds followed by brick to protect against thermal shock.
A recent application of this type of system was installed in a lead acid battery facility, protecting the process floor and trenches from sulfuric acid exposure. We used the Carbo-Alkor mortar along with our Atlastic 40 membrane to provide a floor system that will protect for years to come.
