摘要: Surface coverings and surface covering components that include a textured transparent or translucent wear layer and a design layer, where the design layer is printed with an ink that includes collapsible microspheres, are disclosed. Also disclosed are methods of manufacturing such surface coverings and surface covering components. In one embodiment, a pattern is printed on a substrate to be coated with a wear layer. In another embodiment, a clear transparent or translucent layer underlies the design layer. The ink includes collapsible microspheres, and can also include foaming inhibitors. A number of surface covering substrates and surface coverings can be prepared using the methods described herein. The surface coverings include a substrate, for example, a foamable substrate, a design layer printed with an ink composition that includes collapsible microspheres, and a wear layer. The ink compositions containing the collapsible microspheres can be printed via conventional gravure methods, and the transparent or translucent wear layer can also be printed using conventional methods. The fusion process through which the wear layer is applied and fused causes the microspheres to expand, and then results in the just expanded microspheres collapsing under the weight of the wear layer.
摘要翻译: 公开了包括纹理透明或半透明耐磨层和设计层的表面覆盖物和表面覆盖部件,其中设计层用包括可折叠微球体的油墨印刷。 还公开了制造这种表面覆盖物和表面覆盖部件的方法。 在一个实施例中,将图案印刷在待涂覆有耐磨层的基底上。 在另一个实施例中,透明或半透明的层位于设计层的下面。 油墨包括可折叠的微球体,还可以包括发泡抑制剂。 可以使用本文所述的方法制备多个表面覆盖基材和表面覆盖物。 表面覆盖物包括基底,例如可发泡基底,印刷有包括可折叠微球的油墨组合物的设计层和耐磨层。 含有可折叠微球的油墨组合物可以通过常规的凹版印刷方法印刷,透明或半透明的耐磨层也可以使用常规方法印刷。 穿过耐磨层并融合的融合过程使得微球膨胀,然后导致在磨损层重量下刚刚膨胀的微球体塌陷。
