摘要:
At least certain embodiments of the present invention relate to flooring products, methods of producing flooring products, and polyurethane compositions for use in flooring products, for example, for forming a layer of polyurethane on a textile, fabric or material, such as a flooring fabric. The compositions comprise the reaction product of castor oil having a water content of less than or equal to about 0.2% by weight; a monol, and an isocyanate, wherein the reactants have a soft segment functionality of about 2.0 to about 2.64. Methods of using the compositions and flooring products including the compositions are also disclosed. At least selected embodiments may provide compositions for use in floor coverings having a show surface such as a textile or fabric face material in contacting overlying relation to a polyurethane backing with or without additional structures, layers, backings, and/or the like, as well as apparatus, processes, and/or methods for making such floor coverings, uses for such floor coverings, and/or the like. In at least one particular embodiment, a floor covering such as a carpet, carpet tile, area rug, floor mat, roll goods, or the like incorporates a textile or fabric face disposed in contacting overlying relation to at least one polyurethane layer.

At least certain embodiments of the present invention relate to polyurethane backed non-flooring products, methods of making non-flooring products, and polyurethane compositions for forming a layer of polyurethane on a non-flooring textile, fabric or material. The compositions comprise the reaction product of castor oil having a water content of less than or equal to about 0.2% by weight; a monol, and an isocyanate, wherein the reactants have a soft segment functionality of about 2.0 to about 2.64. Methods of using the compositions and products including the compositions are also disclosed. At least selected embodiments may provide compositions for use in non-flooring surface coverings such as wall coverings, furniture coverings, clothing, tenting, or the like having a show surface such as a textile or fabric face material in contacting overlying relation to a polyurethane backing with or without additional structures, layers, backings, and/or the like, as well as apparatus, processes, and/or methods for making such non-flooring surface coverings, uses for such non-flooring surface coverings, and/or the like.
摘要:
A dyed substrate having at least one dyed surface. At least one dye solution is disposed across at least a portion of the surface in combination with a migration promoting composition and/or a migration limiting composition. The migration promoting composition and/or migration limiting composition adjusts the migration of at least a portion of the dye solution across the substrate in a controlled manner. Dye migration may be arrested by the application of RF (radio frequency) energy as a step in dye fixation. A process for forming the dyed substrate is also provided.
