Materials6.1 Wear Layer:6.1.1 The wear layer shall have a vinyl plastic binder andmay include pigments, fillers, extenders, and other ingred

20、ients,and shall be stabilized against heat and light deterioration.6.1.2 The binder of the wear layer shall consist of one ormore vinyl resins, plasticizers, and stabilizers. Each resin shallbe polyvinyl chloride or a copolymer of vinyl chloride not lessthan 85 % of which is vinyl chloride. The viny

21、l resin(s) shall benot less than 60 % by weight of the binder.6.1.3 The wear layer may be transparent, translucent, oropaque. A background or pattern under the wear layer may beprinted with suitably formulated, color stable inks, or otherwiseprepared to create a color stable pattern. The color of th

22、epattern created must be stable against heat and light deteriora-tion. See 11.7 and 11.8.6.1.4 The surface of the wear layer may be smooth,embossed, or otherwise textured with or without valley (de-pressed) printing.6.1.5 Non-PVC LayerThe top layer(s) of a Type I or IIproduct can be a non-PVC layer(

23、s), which may constitute partof the total wear layer system up to 49 % and is not removableby normal maintenance procedures.6.1.6 A background color or pattern under the Type I or IIwear layer system may be printed with suitably formulated,color stable materials.6.2 Intermediate LayersIntermediate l

24、ayers, such as foamand reinforcing materials, may be included.6.3 BackingThe composition of backings shall be fibrous,nonfoamed plastic, or foamed plastic and may contain otheringredients provided the resultant backing is suitable for theuse category specified in 4.1.3.NOTE 1Backing classes are spec

39、ial, and institutional use. Many proprietarycompounds contain one or more of these basic chemicals. Should theflooring for an unusual application need to be resistant to a specificchemical, this additional requirement should become part of the procure-ment document.11.7 Resistance to HeatThe resista
