Abstract

Described herein are surface coverings comprising a carrier, a first linoleum composition, and a second linoleum composition; wherein the flow rate of the first linoleum composition is greater than the flow rate of the second linoleum composition.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application is a PCT International Application claiming the benefit of US Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 062,510, filed October 10, 2014. The disclosures of the above applications are incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates to surface coverings with improved dimensional stability and aesthetics. Background technique [0004] Surface coverings are used in a variety of applications to create aesthetically pleasing and structurally sound indoor environments. Among these surface coverings are linoleum surface coverings, which generally have poor dimensional stability and unsatisfactory aesthetics. [0005] Accordingly, there is a need for linoleum surface coverings that provide a combination of dimensional stability and pleasing aesthetics. Embodiments of the present invention aim to meet these needs. Contents of the invention [0006] In some embodiments,...
