Multi-laminate Plastic Carrier Plate for Decorative Panels
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Decorative panels with wood-based carriers face limitations due to limited moisture resistance, restricting their application areas, while plastic-based carriers have potential for improvement from both ecological and economic standpoints.
Innovation Solution
A decorative panel with a multi-laminate plastic carrier plate featuring a layer structure of A-B-A type, where layer A comprises a first thermoplastic resin and layer B a second thermoplastic resin, differing from layer A, with N between 3 and 50, providing improved moisture resistance, mechanical properties, and processability, and can be produced using recycled materials.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If wood-based carriers are used for decorative panels, then the panels can be produced with good mechanical properties and processability, but the moisture resistance is limited which restricts the area of application
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses a multi-laminate plastic carrier plate consisting of multiple layers of thermoplastic resin layers (A and B) with different properties. This composite structure combines the advantages of different materials to achieve both good mechanical properties and high moisture resistance, enabling the decorative panels to be applied in areas with high humidity such as bathrooms and kitchens.
2Adaptability or versatility
If plastic-based carriers are used to improve moisture resistance, then the area of application is extended, but there is potential for improvement from ecological and economic standpoints
Solution Approach 1:
The patent utilizes recycled thermoplastic resin materials to produce the multi-laminate carrier plate. By recovering and reprocessing plastic waste materials, the invention reduces raw material consumption and production costs while maintaining the moisture resistance and mechanical properties needed for extended area of application.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the material parameters by using thermoplastic resins that can be efficiently processed through melting and molding. This allows for energy-efficient production processes and enables the use of recycled materials, improving both ecological sustainability and economic efficiency while maintaining the extended area of application.
3Reliability
If a multi-laminate layer structure with N between 3 and 50 is used, then moisture resistance and mechanical properties are improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the carrier plate into multiple thin thermoplastic resin layers (A and B) with different properties. This segmentation allows each layer to contribute specific functions (moisture barrier, structural strength, flexibility) and enables the use of recycled materials, achieving high reliability without excessive complexity through modular layer design.
