Definitions
- a carpet backing is formed by applying a thixotropic polyurethane adhesive composition as either a laminating adhesive, a precoat adhesive or a unitary backing to the underside of the primary fabric of tufted carpet.
- the thixotropic adhesive composition comprising a liquid, hydroxyl-terminated diene polymer, a low molecular weight reinforcing polyol, an isocyanate, a filler, and a catalyst, provides substantially complete bundle'wrap of each fiber tuft without penetration through the primary fabric backing material to the top side or face of the carpet.
- the thixotropic polyurethane adhesive composition is applied to the underside of the primary fabric backing material in measured quantity and cured by the application of heat with or without a secondary fabric being applied prior to curing.
- the present invention relates to thixotropic adhesive compositions, their application to carpets, and to the resulting carpet material. More particularly, the present invention is directed to thixotropic polyurethane adhesive compositions which can be advantageously applied to carpets as a unitary backing, a precoat adhesive, or a laminating adhesive, the application of such compositions and the resulting carpet material.
- Necessary anchorage is provided by applying an adhesive material in liquid form to the underside of the carpet.
- the adhesive applied to the underside of the carpet is accordingly of major importance to the quality and performance of the carpet. It retains the pile fibers or tufts in place, secures the individual fibers of the yarn, prevents pilling of the yarn and controls dimensional stability.
- the carpet is said to have a unitary backing.
- Carpets having a unitary backing are used principally as commercial carpeting.
- a sponge like material or foam
- the adhesive coating is referred to as a precoat composition.
- Uncured foam material can be applied directly to the precoated carpet back and cured in place, or it can be cured as a separate sheet and then laminated to the back of the carpet by means of the precoat or use of another adhesive.
- the precoat provides good tuft lock, while the foam material, such as polyvinyl chloride or styrene butadiene copolymer, serves as a cushion back for the carpet.
- the adhesive layer is referred to as a laminating adhesive.
- a laminating adhesive is applied to the underside of the primary fabric backing material of a double back car pet
- a further backing layer of secondary fabric material known as the scrim
- the scrim serves to improve dimensional stability, appearance of the carpet and also the enhance tuft lock, i.e., the strength with which the fibers are retained in the primary fabric backing.
- the laminating adhesive for double back carpets serves not only to anchor the pile fabers or tufts, but also to adhere the scrim to the carpet.
- the laminating adhesive is applied in liquid form to the underside of the carpet and the scrim is applied to the same side while the laminating adhesive is still wet and uncured.
- the carpet is then passed through an oven to dry and cure the laminating adhesive.
- any fabric like sheet material is contemplated, whether tufted, woven, knitted, felted, cemented or otherwise, and that the fabric can be a carpet, rug, mat, floor covering, floor tile, wall covering or the like.
- the primary fabric is normally a material such as jute, burlap or polypropylene.
- the scrim or secondary fabric can consist of natural and/0r synthetic materials, such as jute, hessian, burlap, nylon, polypropylene and the like.
- the pile fibers can also be natural or synthetic materials, such as wool, polyacrylate, cellulose acetate, polyester, nylon, polyacrylonitrile, polypropylene and the like, as well as mixtures of such materials.
- Styrene butadiene rubber latex or carboxylated styrene butadiene rubber latex of the type commonly employed as a laminating adhesive has several known disadvantages. Such adhesive requires a long cure time at relatively high temperatures (e.g., 300F. for 8 to 10 minutes) and this means that large expensive curing ovens must be employed. With certain heat sensitive fibers that require lower curing temperatures, even longer curing times are necessary. Carboxylated styrene-butadiene latex adhesive may have a strong odor of ammonia associated with it and sometimes finished carpets have a heavy and unpleasant odor of styrene.
- carboxylated butadiene-styrene polymer adhesives can contain some residual unsaturation which tends to cause unsatisfactory aging characteristics, resulting in a loss of flexibility. In fact, polymerization which occurs as a result of such residual unsaturation has caused the backing of carpets and rugs to become stiff after only a few years.
- Another disadvantage of carboxylated styrene butadiene rubber latex adhesive is the required method of application. In general a pan coater consisting of a latex pan, one or two adjustable doctor or striker bars, one or two variable speed coater rolls and one or two adjustable tension rolls are required for the application of such adhesive.
- An object of the present invention is to provide improved adhesive compositions which find particular application for rug and carpet backing applications.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a solvent-free polymer composition to avoid evaporation of water and/or organic volatile materials into the atmmosphere while curing.
- a further object of the present invention is to provide improved thixotropic polyurethane adhesive compositions which can be used as carpet backing adhesive.
- Still a further object of the present invention is to provide low cost adhesive compositions which have excellent adhesion with respect to natural and synthetic materials and good resistance to aging.
- Yet another object of the present invention is to provide thixotropic polyurethane compositions which can be used as unitary backing, precoat adhesive or laminating adhesive for carpets.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide improved procedures for applying carpet backing adhesive compositions.
- a still further object of the present invention is to provide carpet material having good tuft lock and bundle wrap.
- the thixotropic adhesive compositions provided in accordance with the present invention comprise a mixture of a liquid hydroxyl-terminated diene homopolymer or copolymer, a low molecular weight polyol, an isocyanate, a filler, and catalyst. These compositions have an initial Brookfield viscosity of between about 3,000 and about 100,000 centipoises at 5 rpm using a number 5 spindle.
- the adhesive compositions of the invention comprise a mixture of a liquid hydroxyl-terminated diene homopolymer or copolymer, a polyol having an equivalent weight of between about 50 and about 300 present in an amount up to 5 times the equivalents of diene polymer; a polyol having an equivalent weight of between about 50 and about 300 present in an amount between about 1.5 and about 8 times the equivalents of diene polymer; an isocyanate material having a functionality of between 2 and 3 present in an amount to provide a NCO/OH equivalents ratio of between 0.95:1 and 1.5:1; at least one filler present in an amount of between about 40 and about 800 parts per 100 parts by weight of diene polymer; an oil extending hydrocarbon liquid present in an amount up to 200 parts per 100 parts by weight of the diene polymer; water present in an amount up to 10 parts per 100 parts by weight of the diene polymer; and at least one catalyst capable of accelerating the cure time of the composition, present in an amount between about 0.02 and about 4
- the resulting composition has an initial Brookfield viscosity at 5 rpm using a number 5 spindle of between about 3,000 and about 100,000 and the ratio of the viscosity at .1 rpm and 20 rpm for the thixotropic composition is between about 1.3: and 10:1.
- Conventional additives such as oxidation inhibitors, pot life inhibitors, stabilizers, pigments and the like can be incorporated in the adhesive compositions for improved characteristics.
- the polymeric materials combined with isocyanate to produce the urethane adhesive compositions of the present invention are liquid, hydroxyl-terminated diene homopolymers and copolymers.
- the polymers possess predominantly primary, terminal hydroxyl groups of the allylic type and have a hydroxyl content of between about 0.6 and about 0.9 milliequivalents per gram and a viscosity at 30C. of between about 30 and about 300 poises.
- the structure of the polymers accounts for their high reactivity, especially with aromatic diisocyanates.
- Oil extension, using low cost process oils provides formulation flexibility in controlling properties while the liquid systems are uncured, such as viscosity pot life, gel time and the like, as well as properties of the cured product, including flexibility, out growth, elongation and the like.
- the dienes which can be employed are unsubstituted, 2- substituted or 3,3-disubstituted 1,3-dienes of up to about 12 carbon atoms.

- Olefinically unsaturated monomers which can be incorporated into the diene polymer products used in this invention include alpha-mono olefinic materials of about two or three to 10 or 12 carbon atoms such as styrene, vinyl toluene, methyl methacrylate, methylacrylate, acrylic esters, vinyl chloride, vinylidene chloride, etc. Acrylonitrile, acrylic acid, vinylidene cyanide, acrylamide,.etc., provide lowmolecular weight hydroxy-terminated diene intermediate copolymers which have sites suitable for cross-linking.
- the usable olefinic monomers can be ethylenes, substituted with halogen, aromatic hydrocarbon, or even cyano or carboxylcontaining radicals in some instances.
- the choice and amount of mono olefinic monomer employed will often be determined on the basis of properties desired. Generally the amount of monoolefinic monomer in the polymer will be about 0-75 percent by weight of the total addition polymer, preferably about 1 to 40 percent, or even about 40 percent.
- n 44 to 65 Specific examples include resin R-45M having an equivalent weight of 1330 and a hydroxyl content of 0.75 milliequivalents per gram; where n equals 44 to 60.

- Catalysts employed in connection with compositions of the present invention in order to provide the necessary acceleration of cure time include triethylene diamine (DABCO), various tin, lead and zinc containing catalysts such as dibutyl tin dilaurate, nickel acetyl acetonate, ferric acetyl acetonate, stannous octoate, cobalt naphthenate and the like as well as combinations of such catalysts.
- DABCO triethylene diamine
- various tin, lead and zinc containing catalysts such as dibutyl tin dilaurate, nickel acetyl acetonate, ferric acetyl acetonate, stannous octoate, cobalt naphthenate and the like as well as combinations of such catalysts.
- the amount of catalyst employed depends on the desired rate of cure at the curing temperature.
- catalyst is used in an amount varying between about 0.02 and about 4 parts per 100 parts by weight of the liquid, hydroxyl-terminated diene polymer and preferably is employed in an amount between about 0.1 and about 2.0 parts per 100 parts by weight of the diene polymer.
- Water can also be added to the compositions to create a polyurethane foam or sponge. Specifically, between and about 10 parts of water per 100 parts by weight of the liquid, hydroxyl terminated diene polymer can be incorporated in the composition. Preferably, water is incorporated between about 1.0 and about 8 parts per hundred parts by weight of the diene polymer. Since the isocyanate moiety is sensitive to water, the isocyanate should be essentially isolated from water, air and the like before reaction. In addition, the diene polymer and other reactants, and particularly the fillers, which can contain variable amounts of water, should be dried or degassed in a vacuum to remove moisture before the reaction. The preferred procedure is to remove all the moisture from the ingredients and then incorporate the desired amount of water into the reaction mixture. By following this procedure it is possible to know precisely how much water is in the composition, and it is accordingly possible to obtain consistent results for each formulation.
- oxidation inhibitors can be added to improve aging characteristics.
- Such inhibitors include alkylated phenol and aromatic amines.
- Surfactants can be added in order to increase the penetration of the adhesive composition in the backing cloth or primary fabric and around the pile so as to firmly bind the pile to the backing cloth.
- Surfactants such as various silicone materials, serve to stabilize bubble formation.
- small amounts of diluting agents which decrease the viscosity of the reaction mixture, can also be added to increase penetration.
- Emulsifiers can be incorporated to disperse limited soluble components. Dispersing aids can be incorporated to prevent filler settlement.
- dehydrating agents such as molecular sieves or zeolite materials, e.g., Linde 5A molecular sieve, can be incorporated in order to regulate water content.
- dehydrating agents such as molecular sieves or zeolite materials, e.g., Linde 5A molecular sieve, can be incorporated in order to regulate water content.
- these materials are incorporated in the polyol blend, as hereinafter defined.
- the polyol blend Generally, all ingredients except the isocyanate are preblended. This is commonly called the polyol blend.
- Conventional procedures can be employed for mixing or blending the ingredients for the polyol blend, including the use of double planetary arm mixers and Cowles high speed mixers. The order of mixing can be varied to suit the characteristics of the mixing equipment being used.
- the powder material can be blended with a little liquid to obtain a good dispersion and then the remainder of the liquid is added or liquid can be blended and then the powder material is incorporated. Mixing times will vary depending on the efficiency of the mixing equipment and the type of filler used.
- the power material can be blended with a little liquid to obtain a good dispersion and then the remainder of the liquid is added or liquid can be blended and then the powder material is incorporated. Mixing times will vary depending on the efficiency of the mixing equipment and the type of filler used.
- the isocyanate moiety is sensitive to water and accordingly in the preferred practice moisture is initially removed from the reactants.
- the reactants can be mixed and then degassed, usually in a vacuum, to remove air bubbles and moisture from the mixture.
- a mixture can be degassed in a steam jacket kettle maintained under a vacuum of 10 to 50 millimeters of mercury for a time period which can be up to about 2 hours.
- thin film evaporator type equipment is used to remove moisture.
- the viscosity of the resulting adhesive composition after the isocyanate is added to the polyol blend is between about 3,000 and about 100,000 centipoises and preferably between about 8,000 and about 50,000 centipoises as measured using a Brookfield viscosity device, Model RVT, operated at S'rpm (revolutions per minute) using a number 5 spindle.
- the viscosity measurement is made before catalyst is added to the composition so as to eliminate the effects of polymerization.
- the Brookfield viscometer and its operation are described in Development of Research Technique for Evaluating the Low Temperature Fizidity of Automatic Transmission Fluids published by Coordinating Research Council, Inc., February 1963, Appendix A.
- the thixotropic ratio for the adhesive composition should be high enough that filler does not settle out of the composition and also high enough to prevent overpenetration of the carpet while being low enough to enable the adhesive composition to be pumped, readily blended, and easily applied by doctoring procedures conventional in the art.
- the thixotropic ratio determined by viscosity measurements made at 1 and at 20 revolutions per minute is between about 1.3:1 and about 10:1 and preferably between about 2:1 and about 8:1.
- the thixotropic agents which can be incorporated to achieve the desired viscosity and the aforementioned ratio are clays, such as kaolin; asbestos; amines; and silica.
- the polyol blend and the isocyanate are preferably accurately metered and mixed in a multi-component mixmeter machine and continuously and immediately fed by hose onto the underside of carpet (underside being up).
- the catalyst, or water, or other components can be fed into a multi-component mix meter machine as separate accurately metered streams.
- a portion of the extender oil can be incorporated with the isocyanate.
- the ingredients are applied at a temperature between room temperature and about 150 F.
- the temperature of application is between about and about F.
- the adhesive composition After the adhesive composition has been applied to the underside of pile fiber or primary fabric substrate the adhesive composition is then conventionally spread with a doctor blade. As the mixture passes under the blade, the shearing action of the blade reduces the viscosity so that the mixture can be forced down into and around the tufts of yarn. After passing under the blade, the original high viscosity is regained preventing undesirable overpenetration.
- the amount of adhesive composition applied is normally just sufficient to obtain adequate adhesion of the pile fibers to the primary fabric substrate. Excess adhesive composition is not only wasteful, but also can cause penetration of the primary fabric, rendering yarn stiff and the final carpet unacceptable. Typically, coating weights for carpets vary from about 12 to about 37 ounces per square yard.
- the amount of adhesive composition applied to the carpet ranges from about 20 to about 30 ounces per square yard.
- the lower limit with respect to the amount applied is limited by the amount necessary to adequately achieve the desired goal, whether it be that of a laminating adhesive, precoat composition or unitary backing.
- Curing time and temperature can be varied. Normally, curing is accomplished at a temperature in the range between about 225 and about 350 F. and preferably in the range of from about 275 to about 325 F. for a period of about 0.3 to about 3 minutes.
- An oven or heated drum can be used for curing.
- tuft lock properties of a carpet which are directly affected by the nature of the adhesive applied are tuft lock, anti-fray properties, appearance and dimensional stability.
- tufted carpets have virtually no tuft retention in the absence of an adhesive.
- Antifray properties are important with respect to the elimination of fraying of cut edges of tufted carpets.
- appreciable weight of adhesive coating is normally required.
- the appearance of a carpet is judged by hand and visual appearance after being laid.
- Certain adhesive compositions can provide a better hand to a carpet by introducing a certain degree of stiffness in the carpet.
- carpet stiffness also tends to prevent buckling, imparts a high degree of resilience and prevents slipping on a polished floor. Dimensional stability of a carpet is obtained by locking the fibers together.
- the adhesive employed for carpets must have long effectiveness and should have a high tensile strength.
- the adhesive should not be degraded by water or other common solvents which could be spilled on carpeting or with which the carpet is likely to come in Contact.
- the adhesive composition must be capable of application by simple conventional techniques. Thus, in addition to good adhesion characteristics, adhesive compositions must be judged by other criteria.
- T-peel is a value obtained when the secondary fabric backing is pulled away from the primary fabric backing. This value is determined using a Scott tester. Adhesion of the scrim or secondary fabric backing to the primary fabric is referred to as the peel strength. This expression is used in its normal sense in the carpet manufacturing industry to mean the force required to peel apart a strip of two adhered components two inches wide which have been aged 24 hours. It is measured by gripping components in separate jaws of the Scott tensile tester and then moving the jaws apart at a rate of two inches per minute. A value of between 6 and pounds is normally obtained. Generally, the lighter the coating weight, the lower the T-peel.
- Tuft lock is a determination of the ability of the rug backing adhesive composition to hold fiber to both the primary and secondary fabric backing material. Tuft lock is determined by using a Scott tester to pull on one tuft of the pile to measure the force required to pull the tuft away from the primary and secondary fabric backing material. Normally, values for styrene-butadiene rubber latex will vary from 6 to 15 pounds of pull. At 20 to 30 pounds of pull, the yarns used in the carpet industry usually break.
- the pilling test is a determination of the ability of rug backing composition to completely enclose individual fibers. Should the fibers in the construction not be completely enclosed, mild rubbing of the carpet produces loose strands of fibers which tend to form into a small ball of fiber or a pill.

- Application of the thixotropic adhesive compositions of the present invention is also simpler than application of carboxylated latex adhesives.
- the composition of the invention can be discharged onto a carpet continuously by means of a hose or nozzle and the resulting adhesive adjusted using a conventional doctor blade to give the desired rate of application and degree of penetration.
- Another advantage is the fact that smaller and simpler equipment can be used with the thixotropic adhesive compositions of the present invention and this means a reduction in capital investment and required operators, thus reducing production costs.
