Abstract

A decorative laminate including a decorative layered structure defining a first surface and a second surface opposed from the first surface, and a gas permeable layer underlying the decorative layered structure.

Claims (35)

1. A decorative laminate comprising:

a decorative layered structure;

a gas permeable layer underlying the decorative layered structure, wherein the gas permeable layer comprises voids; and

a metal foil gas barrier layer positioned between the gas permeable layer and the decorative layered structure.

2. The decorative laminate of claim 1 wherein the voids are continuous voids extending in x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis directions through the gas permeable layer such that gases permeate in the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis directions through the gas permeable layer.

3. The decorative laminate of claim 2 wherein the gas permeable layer defines a first surface facing the decorative layered structure and a second surface opposed from the first surface, and wherein the continuous voids define a flow path for permeating the gases from the second surface through the gas permeable layer.

4. The decorative laminate of claim 1 , wherein the decorative layered structure comprises an embossing resin layer.

5. The decorative laminate of claim 1 further comprising an adhesive layer, wherein the gas permeable layer is positioned between the adhesive layer and the decorative layered structure.

6. The decorative laminate of claim 5 wherein the adhesive layer comprises a pressure sensitive adhesive.

7. A decorative structure comprising:

the decorative laminate of claim 5 ; and

a substrate, wherein the adhesive layer connects the decorative laminate to the substrate.

8. A decorative laminate comprising:

a decorative layered structure;

a gas permeable layer underlying the decorative layered structure, wherein the gas permeable layer defines a continuous void structure that extends throughout the gas permeable layer; and

a metal foil gas barrier layer positioned between the gas permeable layer and the decorative layered structure.

9. The decorative laminate of claim 8 wherein the gas permeable layer defines a first surface facing the decorative layered structure and a second surface opposed from the first surface, and wherein the continuous void structure define a flow path for permeating the gases from the second surface through the gas permeable layer.

10. The decorative laminate of claim 8 , wherein the decorative layered structure comprises an embossing resin layer.

11. The decorative laminate of claim 8 further comprising an adhesive layer, wherein the gas permeable layer is positioned between the adhesive layer and the decorative layered structure.

12. The decorative laminate of claim 11 wherein the adhesive layer comprises a pressure sensitive adhesive.

13. A decorative structure comprising:

the decorative laminate of claim 11 ; and

a substrate, wherein the adhesive layer connects the decorative laminate to the substrate.

14. A decorative laminate comprising:

a decorative layered structure;

a gas permeable layer underlying the decorative layered structure, wherein the gas permeable layer comprises a gas permeable woven or nonwoven material; and

a metal foil gas barrier layer positioned between the gas permeable layer and the decorative layered structure.

15. The decorative laminate of claim 14 wherein the gas permeable layer comprises spun bond polymer, melt blown polymer, felt, fiberglass, or woven aramid fabric.

16. The decorative laminate of claim 14 wherein the gas permeable layer defines a first surface facing the decorative layered structure and a second surface opposed from the first surface, and wherein the woven or nonwoven material defines a flow path for permeating the gases from the second surface through the gas permeable layer.

17. The decorative laminate of claim 14 , wherein the decorative layered structure comprises an embossing resin layer.

18. The decorative laminate of claim 14 further comprising an adhesive layer, wherein the gas permeable layer is positioned between the adhesive layer and the decorative layered structure.

19. The decorative laminate of claim 18 wherein the adhesive layer comprises a pressure sensitive adhesive.

20. A decorative structure comprising:

the decorative laminate of claim 18 ; and

a substrate, wherein the adhesive layer connects the decorative laminate to the substrate.
