Further, in order to reduce the wet feeling of the mat surface, it is also preferable to use a laminated fabric in which a fabric of hydrophobic fiber is laminated on the surface side of the facing material and a fabric of hydrophilic fiber is laminated on the inner side.

The liquid impermeable sheet of the lining mat lining material is made of, for example, a thermoplastic polymer film such as polyethylene, polypropylene, an ethylene copolymer, or a vinyl chloride polymer, or a synthetic fiber nonwoven fabric. Examples of the sheet include a sheet obtained by press molding, a laminated sheet of a woven or non-woven fabric and a polymer film, or an integrated laminated sheet. In addition, when a dense non-woven fabric of fine fibers obtained by the melt blown method or a water-impermeable fabric to which a water repellent or a waterproof resin is added and which has a high air permeability, particularly on a wooden floor surface, It is preferable because the damage caused by it is reduced.

The liquid absorbent material of the laying mat is composed of a fibrous substance and a polymer absorbent material in order to have good liquid diffusibility, little change in shape in the liquid absorbing state, and the cushioning property not to be impaired. A composition is used. The fibrous substance is obtained by cutting natural fibers such as pulp, linter or pulverized products thereof, regenerated cellulose fibers, polyvinyl alcohol fibers, hydrophilized polyester fibers, microcrimp polyester fibers, polyamid fibers and other artificial fibers. Short fibers obtained by 10 mm or less are used. Further, the polymer absorbent is, for example, a cross-linked product of a maleic acid copolymer, an acrylic acid ester copolymer (for example, an epoxy-acrylate resin, a saponified product of an acrylic ester-vinyl acetate copolymer, etc.), Crosslinked polyvinyl alcohol modified products, hydrolyzed products of acrylonitrile graft starch (or cellulose), hydrolyzed products of acrylic acid graph starch (or cellulos), partially neutralized products of crosslinked polyacrylic acid salts and the like are used.

The mixing ratio of the fibrous substance of the liquid absorbent and the polymer absorbent is such that, for example, in a mat installed around water such as at the entrance of a kitchen or a bath, a large amount of the absorbent is mixed and the mixture is spread on the edge or the self-portrait. A small amount of mixture may be used if it is installed. Generally, the mixing ratio F / R of the fibrous substance F and the polymer absorbent R is 9/1 to 4/6. When the amount of the absorbent is small, the absorption rate decreases in a short period of time, and when the amount of the absorbent is large, the absorbed water softens the mat, which may cause discomfort when stepped on. is there.

At least one kind of chemical agent selected from a commonly used fragrance, antibacterial agent, insect repellent, deodorant, etc. is added to the lining mat's surface or lining material depending on the place of laying. Therefore, it suppresses the generation of offensive odors and the aggregation of unpleasant insects due to the propagation of various bacteria in the laid mat. The method of applying the drug includes a method of applying the drug by dissolving it in a solvent, a method of applying the drug by dispersing it in a dispersant, and a method of applying the drug to the solvent or the dispersant, for example, vinyl alcohol resin, vinyl acetate resin, urethane resin, For example, a method in which a drug is dissolved or dispersed together with a binder resin such as an acrylic resin and then applied to enhance the fixability of the drug. The adhered amount of the drug component is usually 0.1 to 3% by weight based on the covering material.

Further, in order to improve the atmosphere of the laying mat, the laying mat is laminated with a liquid-permeable fiber product or put in a bag shape so that the laying mat does not come off from the laying mat. As described above, it is recommended to lock with a fastener such as a surface fastener, a hook, or a removable adhesive. Further, the liquid-permeable fiber product is, for example, a woven fabric on which a pattern is dyed, a non-woven fabric on which a pattern is printed or embossed, a fiber napped woven fabric or non-woven fabric, or a leather-like sheet material.

Further, it is preferable that the mat laid on the floor surface is made slip-resistant to ensure walking safety. A method of imparting anti-slip property to a laid mat is a method of impregnating or applying a rubber resin such as synthetic rubber or acrylic resin to the lining material, for example, polyurethane elastomer, polyester elastomer, or aromatic vinyl compound.
