VERFAHREN ZUR VERMINDERUNG DER RISSBILDUNG IN OBERFLÄCHEN VON BODENBELAG AUS BESCHICHTETEM HARTHOLZ-VERBUNDMATERIAL

摘要

The methods for making a coated thin veneer, plank or wood product in which the coated surface does not crack due to instability of the wood involve applying to a veneer, plank or wood product a composition including a hydrophilic polymer and a reactive monomer or a composition including a reactive (meth)acrylate. In one embodiment, the hydrophilic polymer is a polyalkylene glycol, such as polyethylene glycol. The composition also advantageously includes a thermally activated free radical initiator, a photoinitiator or both. The veneer is further laminated into wood product boards that are cut down to planks. In another aspect of the current invention, several solvent based resins are roll coated onto the loose and/or tight side of the thin veneer or unfinished plank wood, dried to remove solvent, and exposed to UV radiation to cure the resinous material by radical initiation of the photoinitiator that leads to polymerization. Further polymerization of the resin material within the pores or voids occurs by heat induced initiation of the organic peroxides at the time of lamination in the case of veneer or by UV radiation exposure in the case of planks.
