Definitions

  • Resin-impregnated fibrous material in the form of a sheet or a web
  • the present invention relates to a resin-impregnated fibrous material in the form of a sheet or a web, comprising an impregnating resin selected from the group consisting of aminoplast resins and phenoplast resins and combinations thereof.
  • the present invention also relates to a process for producing the resin-impregnated fibrous material and to the use thereof from providing a resin surface to a panel.
  • a long known method of manufacturing panels with a plastic surface involves laminating a resin-impregnated paper or a sheet or web of a similar resin-impregnated fibrous material onto at least one of the surfaces of the panel.
  • these fibrous materials are impregnated with amino resins, such as melamine formaldehyde resins (MF resins), urea formaldehyde resins (UF resins) and melamine-urea formaldehyde resins (MUF resins), phenoplast resins or combinations thereof.
  • MF resins melamine formaldehyde resins
  • UPF resins urea formaldehyde resins
  • UMF resins melamine-urea formaldehyde resins
  • phenoplast resins phenoplast resins or combinations thereof.
  • the resin contained in the sheet or web undergoes a polycondensation within the fibre structure of the web or sheet yielding a highly cross- linked and durable plastic coating layer.
  • Typical examples of such sheets or webs of resin-impregnated fibrous materials are decorative papers, also termed decor papers, and overlay papers, but also counteracting layer impregnants. While decorative papers, also termed “decor papers” and overlay papers provide visible plastic surfaces to the panel, counteracting layer impregnants are applied to a non-visible backside of a panel and serve to compensate for the pulling forces exerted by the decor paper and/or the overlay paper.
  • EP 122396 describes a decorative laminate comprising a core of at least one fibrous sheet, namely craft paper, which is impregnated with a blend of a phenol/formaldehyde resin and a cross-linkable acrylic copolymer and optionally a melamine/formaldehyde resin.
  • the cross-linkable acrylic resins are prepared by radically polymerizing ethylenically unsaturated monomers, such as ethyl acrylate and methyl methacrylate and a third monomer which contains reactive polar group, thereby resulting in a polymer containing said reactive polar groups in the polymer chain which are susceptible to self-crosslinking or by reacting with a crosslinking agent such as a melamine resin.
  • ethylenically unsaturated monomers such as ethyl acrylate and methyl methacrylate
  • a third monomer which contains reactive polar group thereby resulting in a polymer containing said reactive polar groups in the polymer chain which are susceptible to self-crosslinking or by reacting with a crosslinking agent such as a melamine resin.
  • WO 2009/077561 describes a resin impregnated compressible decor paper which can be printed by ink-jet and which has a residual moister of at least 3.5% and a flow of greater than 0.4% after drying.
  • the impregnated compressible decor paper is prepared by core-impregnation of the paper with a conventional impregnating resin, pre-drying the core-impregnated paper in a manner that the impregnating resin is not fully cured and subsequently coating the ink receiving layer on the surface of the pre-dried impregnated decor paper.
  • the resulting coating shows poor adhesion to the plastic surface.
  • the low adherence will typically cause instability of the coating and poor resistance to damage from mechanical impact.
  • the problem is particularly serious with UV-curing coatings and polyurethane coatings, which show very poor adhesion to plastic surfaces obtained from laminated resin- impregnated fibrous materials.
  • WO 2015/106771 describes a layered building board having a layer of a melamine- impregnated paper laminated to a core layer and an acrylic coating layer, where between and the acrylic coating layer and adhesion layer is arranged comprising a polyurethane and an acrylate component.
  • the polyurethane is obtained from the reaction of an isocyanate and a hydroxyl containing acrylate. The process is tedious and the components of the adhesion layer are expensive.
  • WO 2010/000781 describes a resin combination for impregnating a paper web which comprises a resin combination of an urea formaldehyde resin, a melamine formaldehyde resin and an unsaturated polyester obtained by polycondensation of a maleic acid anhydride and a mono- or polyalkyleneglykol.
  • the impregnated web is used for providing a counteracting layer on the backside of a panel in the production of laminate floors.
  • resin-impregnated sheets or webs of fibrous materials such as decor paper or overlay paper
  • the resin-impregnated sheets or webs of fibrous materials the present invention contain an impregnating resin which comprises a resin component B having ethylenically unsaturated double bonds in the form of allyl, acryl or methacryl groups in combination with a conventional impregnating resin, i.e. a resin which is selected from the group consisting of aminoplast resins and phenoplast resins, hereinafter resin component A.

  • a first aspect of the present invention relates to sheets or webs of a resin-impregnated fibrous material which contains an impregnating resin comprising the at least one component A and the at least one component B as defined herein.
  • the invention also relates to a process for producing a resin- impregnated fibrous material as claimed in any one of the preceding claims, which comprises impregnating a fibrous material in the form sheet or a web with a liquid resin composition comprising a combination of a) the resin component A, preferably in the form of a pre-condensate; and b) the resin component B as defined herein.
  • the invention relates to the use of a web or a sheet of the resin- impregnated fibrous material as defined herein for providing a plastic surface, in particular a duroplastic surface, to a panel.
  • the present invention is associated with the benefit that the plastic surfaces obtained from the sheets or webs of the resin-impregnated material of the present invention provide for very good adherence of coatings, irrespective of the kind of coating formulation, thereby making grinding of the surface and the use of adhesion promoters unnecessary.
