20090087643 | Laminate Surface Layer Without an Overlay and Method of Manufacture - A process for the production of a decorative laminate comprising a décor layer formed from a décor sheet comprising a paper sheet impregnated with a thermoset resin and coated with a slurry comprising a thermoset resin and a mix of abrasion resistant particles, wherein the mix of abrasion resistant particles comprises elliptical, platelet shaped particles. After the décor sheet is dried, it may be bonded to a core layer, and may serve as an outermost surface layer of the laminate. The decorative laminate is an improvement over the prior art in that it does not need an overlay layer to reduce scratching,; scuffing, and marring, thereby, improving the clarity of the laminate. | 04-02-2009 |
20110305887 | Laminates Formed In Part from Laminate Enhancing Agents - A laminate having improved clarity and abrasion-resistant, scuff-, mar- and impact resistance, said laminate comprising an overlay and/or a décor layer formed via the application of a slurry to a respective substrate and/or décor sheet, wherein the slurry comprises a silicone based thermoplastic resin and a mix of laminate enhancing agents comprising cylindrical, fiber-shaped laminate enhancing agents which may or may not be coated with silicone powder or liquid comprising at least one of glass, ceramic, and plastic. The décor layer may alternatively or additionally be formed in part via the application of a mix of laminate enhancing agents and/or the slurry at the printing stage of the décor sheet. | 12-15-2011 |
