Embodiment 1

[0095] The apparatus 1 for forming a surface covering according to the invention was used to provide wallpaper, except that the inkjet print head 22 for applying the foam inhibiting composition was not used.

[0096] The wallpaper consists of paper with a fleece backing. The liquid plastisol resin layer composition was applied to a wool backed paper available from Specialty Coatings (Darwen) Ltd: PS1652 Expandable PVC Plastisol. The resulting liquid paint PVC paste was printed at 25°C.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method of forming a surface covering for example wallpaper or a floor covering and an apparatus for forming a surface covering, in which a surface covering raw material is supplied, the surface covering raw material comprising a substrate and a resin layer comprising a resin and a carrier liquid, the resin being dispersed in the carrier liquid and being capable of gelling or curing with the carrier liquid. A pattern is then applied to the resin layer by inkjet printing, and the surface covering raw material with the pattern formed on the resin layer is heatedto gel or cure the resin layer to thereby prepare a surface covering.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to methods of forming surface coverings such as wallpaper or floor coverings, apparatus for forming surface coverings, and surface coverings. Background technique [0002] Wallpapers are widely used in buildings to give walls a desired finish and appearance. Similarly, floor coverings formed from sheet materials can be used to provide a desired finish and appearance to floor surfaces. These surface coverings typically include a sheet-form substrate to provide strength and define a suitable surface for adhesion to a surface such as a wall or floor. The surface covering also includes a layer formed of resin which provides scratch and stain resistance and also affects the appearance of the surface covering. Generally, the resin layer includes a polyvinyl chloride-based resin containing an ester-oil-based plasticizer and a foaming agent. The resin layer is usually applied to the substrate as a wet coating dispersion, which ...
