Embossing of foam-backed carpet or foam sheet material prepared from these latex compositions is readily accomplished by heating the foam structure to the melting temperature of the dispersed particulate material, then passing the foam through a cold embossing roll to chill and set the foam in place.
The application of the foamedlatex composition to the carpet may be accomplished by a variety of methods including roller, spray, knife-spreading or doctoring the latexfoam onto the surface.
The foam is then further heated to the melt temperature of the particulate material to thereby soften or melt the particulate material, and the foam is then passed to a cold embossing roll, where upon the foam composition is chilled and set in dimpled pattern.
The method of claim 1 wherein, prior to foaming, the latex composition is compounded with 1-10% by weight based on the copolymer, of an aminoplast resin, and the copolymer contains at least one monomer of group vi.
The crushed foam coated leather or leather substitute of claim 9 wherein the latex composition is compounded with 1-10% by weight based on the copolymer, of an aminoplast resin, and the copolymer contains at least one monomer of group vi.
The adhesion of the foam coating to the substrate for the low pressure embossed was inadequate, while the adhesion of the foam coating embossed at the higher pressure was adequate.
