Abstract

A stone plastic composite (SPC) floor includes a decorative surface. The SPC floor has an SPC substrate and a decorative surface formed on the SPC substrate; the decorative surface is a wooden board or a bamboo board; the moisture content of the decorative surface is controlled within 5-7%. The SPC substrate is divided into an upper layer, a middle layer, and a lower layer, and the main components of the SPC substrate comprise polyvinyl chloride resin powder, calcium carbonate, a calcium-zinc stabilizer, an inner lubricant, PE wax, chlorinated polyethylene (CPE), acrylic ester (ACR), a composite lubricant, and a coloring agent. The SPC floor can ensure that the decorative surface does not wrap and deform, and other performances of the floor are not affected, and thus is low in costs.

Claims (19)

1. A stone plastic composite (SPC) floor comprising a decorative surface, wherein the SPC floor comprises an SPC substrate and a decorative surface formed on the SPC substrate, the decorative surface is a wooden board or a bamboo board, and a moisture content of the decorative surface is controlled within 5-7%;

wherein an adhesive layer is arranged between the decorative surface and the SPC substrate;

wherein the adhesive layer is a cold glue;

wherein a bottom surface of the SPC floor is defined by the SPC substrate or by a sound-deadening layer glued to the bottom surface of the SPC substrate.

2. The stone plastic composite (SPC) floor of claim 1 , wherein the main components of the SPC substrate comprise polyvinyl chloride resin powder, calcium carbonate, a calcium-zinc stabilizer, an inner lubricant, PE wax, chlorinated polyethylene (CPE), acrylic ester (ACR), a composite lubricant, and a coloring agent.

3. The stone plastic composite (SPC) floor of claim 2 , wherein the SPC substrate is divided into an upper layer, a middle layer, and a lower layer,

wherein components of the upper layer comprise 100 parts of polyvinyl chloride resin powder, 270-300 parts of calcium carbonate, 4-6 parts of calcium-zinc stabilizer, 0.5-1 part of inner lubricant, 0.6-1.0 part of PE wax, 2-5 parts of chlorinated polyethylene (CPE), 1-3 parts of acrylic ester (ACR), 0.5-1 part of composite lubricant, and 0.5-0.7 parts of coloring agent;

wherein the components of the middle layer comprise 100 parts of polyvinyl chloride resin powder, 350-380 parts of calcium carbonate, 4-6 parts of calcium-zinc stabilizer, 0.5-0.8 parts of inner lubricant, 0.6-0.9 parts of PE wax, 2-4 parts of chlorinated polyethylene (CPE), 1-3 parts of acrylic ester (ACR), 0.5-0.8 parts of composite lubricant, and 0.5-0.7 parts of coloring agent;

wherein the components of the lower layer comprise 100 parts of polyvinyl chloride resin powder, 270-300 parts of calcium carbonate, 4-6 parts of calcium-zinc stabilizer, 0.5-1 part of inner lubricant, 0.6-1.0 part of PE wax, 2-5 parts of chlorinated polyethylene (CPE), 1-3 parts of acrylic ester (ACR), 0.5-1 part of composite lubricant, and 0.5-0.7 parts of coloring agent.

4. The stone plastic composite (SPC) floor of claim 2 , wherein the middle layer has a thickness of 1.5 mm-4 mm.

5. The stone plastic composite (SPC) floor of claim 4 , wherein the substrate has a total thickness of 4-7 mm.

6. The stone plastic composite (SPC) floor of claim 1 , wherein the decorative surface has a thickness of 0.5-1.5 mm.

7. The stone plastic composite (SPC) floor of claim 3 , wherein the SPC substrate board is formed by co-extrusion.

8. The stone plastic composite (SPC) floor of claim 1 , wherein the adhesive layer is formed by a roller coating and cold pressing process.

9. A process for preparing the stone plastic composite (SPC) floor of claim 1 , comprising the steps:

preparing a SPC substrate board, and sanding the board to fix its thickness, thus obtaining a SPC substrate;

laminating the decorative surface and the SPC substrate with the cold glue, and performing cold pressing;

performing surface sanding and wire drawing after the cold pressing; and

subjecting the surface to UV treatment to obtain a finished product.
