Influencing Factors on Light Fastness of Laminate Flooring
The light fastness of laminated floorings made with four kinds of decorative paper and a surface-abrasion-resistant paper,coated by UV paint were examined using a xenon-arc lamp.The influences of decorative paper,abrasion-resistant paper,UV coating and substrate(HMDF)thickness on UV flooring stability were analyzed.The results showed that the decorative papers provided an important effect on the flooring light fastness,while abrasion resistant paper had a negative influence on the flooring light fastness.It was also found that the UV painted flooring had better light resistance than the paper laminated flooring.The substrate thickness also affected the flooring UV resistance when it was less than 6 mm.
