- Floor coverings in the form of planks and tiles are known in particular made from one or more layers of non-flexible or rigid PVC, these being particularly advantageous since they are easier to transport than rolls of PVC floor coverings. Their installation is also simple and fast. They are therefore often used in renovations to cover existing floors. In order to improve the dimensional stability of this type of coating, it is sometimes used a reinforcement glass veil embedded in the thickness of a layer of PVC.
- this type of coating generally has poor acoustic properties, in particular in terms of sound insulation, sound when walking, shock absorption and comfort when walking.
- One of the aims of the invention is therefore to propose a panel for producing a floor covering having good performance in terms of running sound and sound insulation while retaining good mechanical properties.
- Another object of the invention is to propose a panel comprising male-female means of connection or assembly.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a panel having improved shock absorption properties according to standard EN14808, in particular greater than 3%.
- An objective of the invention is also to propose a panel classified A or even B according to standard NF S31 074 in terms of sound when walking, that is to say having a value Ln, e, w of less than 75db.
- This measurement is made according to standard NF S31 074, using a microphone measuring the level of standardized impact noise in the room where the floor covering is laid.
- An objective of the invention is also to propose an acoustic panel having a reduction in weighted impact noise (AFw) according to standard ISO 10140-3 and the classification according to ISO 717-2: 20l3 greater than 12db.

- a damping underlay (7) generally has a thickness of between 0.5 mm and 3 mm. The advantage of such a damping underlay is to provide the panel according to the invention with good acoustic insulation performance.
- a damping under layer (7) consisting of a layer of nonwoven fabric with a thickness of between 0.5 mm and 3 mm makes it possible to guarantee a good compromise between the performance of sound insulation, and the resistance of male means.
- male-female means assemblies (6a, 6b) used in combination with a damping underlay (7) of nonwoven fabric with a thickness greater than 3 mm may disassemble or break under the effect traffic, the thickness of the nonwoven fabric making the entire panel too flexible and increasing the stresses on the assembly means (6a, 6b).
- a thickness of damping underlay (7) in non-woven fabric of less than 0.5 mm can limit the acoustic insulation provided by the panel.
- the damping sub-layer (7) has a thickness of between 1 mm and 2.5 mm. This thickness range makes it possible to achieve a better compromise between the performance of acoustic insulation and the resistance of the assembly means to traffic if the backing layer includes it, in particular an acoustic attenuation according to the higher ISO 10140-3 standard. at 15dB.
- the damping sub-layer in nonwoven fabric comprises a compressive strength greater than or equal to 20Kpa, more preferably greater than or equal to OKPa.
- Compressive strength is an important property of the damping underlayment, which is decisive for maintaining good sound insulation over time provided by the underlayment while contributing to the resistance of the assembly means to traffic.
- the resistance to compression is measured according to standard CEN / TS 16354: 20l2 which itself refers to standard NF EN 826 of May 2013. This method corresponds to a measurement of compression for a deformation of 0.5mm.
- a shock-absorbing non-woven textile underlay comprising a compressive strength greater than or equal to 20Kpa makes it possible to provide good acoustic insulation while contributing to the resistance of the assembly means to traffic.
- the damping underlay in non-woven fabric include a compressive strength greater than or equal to OKOKpa in order to maintain its acoustic properties over time.
- the non-woven textile damping underlay (7) comprises a compressive strength greater than or equal to 400KPa.
- a compressive strength greater than or equal to 400KPa allows the underlay to maintain its thickness despite repeated traffic of heavy loads and created less stress in terms of assembly means.
- the assembly means having a so-called “vertical” assembly direction, namely perpendicular to the plane of the ground covered by the floor covering panel present less risk of unclipping if they are used in combination with a non-woven fabric underlay comprising a compressive strength greater than or equal to 400KPa.
- the damping underlayer (7) of nonwoven fabric comprises natural fibers such as cellulose fibers, cotton, linen, synthetic fibers, in particular polyester fibers, polyamide, polyethylene terephthalate, d aramid, Nomex, ethylene polynaphthalate, polypropylene or even synthetic mineral fibers such as glass fibers or basalt fibers.
- the damping underlayer (7) of nonwoven fabric is produced from a mixture of natural fibers and synthetic fibers and / or synthetic mineral fibers.
- the damping sub-layer of nonwoven fabric has a surface mass greater than 100 g / m 2 and less than 600 g / m 2 .
- the shock-absorbing sub-layer (7) of nonwoven fabric has a ratio corresponding to its surface mass over its thickness greater than 200 g / m 2 per millimeter of thickness.
- the damping underlayer (7) can be bonded to the non-flexible layer (4a) or to the rigid layer (4b) by any known means, in particular by thermo lamination, cold bonding, hot bonding, extrusion of the layer (4a, 4b) on the damping underlay (7), by powdering hot-melt adhesive or by using a double-sided adhesive or a hot-melt film.
- a layer of polyurethane varnish (not shown) with a thickness of less than 20pm;
- a backing layer (4) consisting of a rigid layer (4b) 4.5 mm thick based on PVC and optionally a shock absorbing undercoat (7);
- the layers being linked together to form the multilayer panel (1).
- composition of the rigid layer (4b) is detailed in Table 1 below (the designation "% (w / w)" corresponds to the percentage by mass of the constituent relative to the total mass of the composition).
- Process aids can in particular include optical brighteners, internal or external lubricants, pigments, titanium dioxide, ...
- the rigid layer (4b) obtained has a modulus value for 1% elongation of 52.3 daN / cm and a flexibility of 105 N for 20mm of deflection.
- the non-woven textile layer (3) and the upper layer (2) are bonded together by impregnating the layer of gelled plastisol (2d).
- the thickness of the first tie layer (5a) measured is about 50 ⁇ m.
- the fibers of the non-woven textile layer (3) are completely impregnated by the gel layer (2d).
- the rigid layer (4b) and the nonwoven fabric layer (3) are bonded by a polyurethane hotmelt adhesive.
- the thickness of the second bonding layer (5b) is about 50 ⁇ m.
- the shock absorbing sub-layer (7) is bonded to the rigid layer (4b) using a double-sided adhesive coated on both sides with acrylic adhesive.
- panel (1) according to the invention are compared with existing floor coverings. These reference panels are made up successively:
- a decorative layer namely a printed PVC film
- composition of the rigid back layers of references 1 and 2 is identical to the composition of the rigid layer (4b) detailed in Table 1.
- the non-flexible backing layer of reference 3 comprises approximately 33% of PVC, 10% of plasticizers (DINP), 4% of additives (process aids, stabilizers, pigments), 3% of PVC particles mixed with glass fibers and 50% fillers.
- the non-flexible layer obtained has a modulus value for 1% elongation of 21.4 daN / cm and a flexibility of 27.3 N for 20mm of deflection.
- the acoustic properties of the references and examples measured in dB are presented in Table 5.
- the results obtained show that the panels (1) according to the invention all reach class B according to the NF S31 074 standard for classification of walking sound (table 6).
- the benchmarks compared are all less efficient in terms of sound insulation and / or sound when walking.
- the insulation results also show ALw values always greater than 12db and up to 2ldb for the panels according to the invention.
