Stone materials applied with this chemical compound would produce thousands of recessed dents in the size of 2 to 7 micrometers in the stone structure. When stone surface is subjected to moisture or pressure, the recessed dents act as sucking discs with vacuum effect, thereby achieving nonskid performance, thoroughly improved the slippery conditions on wet floors. The nonskid performance can last as long as two years.
