Abstract
A glass fibre wall covering is made by sequential application of aqueous dispersion and an image coating to selectively create an image for painted effects. The image pattern is based on a spatial expansion of second image coating upon heating during the drying process.
Claims16
A process for forming a fibreglass wall covering with volumetric image effect comprising:
- (a) providing a glass fibre fabric;
- (b) forming a first dried coating on both sides of said glass fibre fabric that is applied from an aqueous dispersion comprising starch and a polymeric latex binder;
- (c) subsequently forming a second coating on said first dried coating on one side of said glass fibre fabric by selectively applying the second coating to a distinct portion of the glass fabric, said second coating applied from a chemical mixture comprising a polymeric binder and expandable chemicals and heating second coating and hereby creating distinct an image pattern.
A glass fibre wall covering comprising a glass fibre fabric, at least one first coating on said glass fibre fabric, a second coating with a volumetric structure on said first coating in predetermined areas thereof, said volumetric structure comprising a plurality of regular formed cavities.
