Abstract
Transport flooring, method of producing the same and the uses thereof. The present invention provides a way of increasing resistance of a transport flooring panel against rolling wear. Thus, in a panel which comprises a multiply panel formed by a plurality of wood veneers and an overlay, which is bonded to the top veneer of the panel and which forms the surface of the panel, the top veneer of the multiply panel is saturated with a hydrophobic agent before the overlay is attached to the top veneer. The veneer layers containing wood fibers, which are filled with hydrophobic agent, will act as a damping layer which dampens the pressure caused by rolls and thereby improves the panels’ resistance to shear strain exerted to the panel surface by the high pressure caused by rolls.
Description
Transport flooring panel and method of producing the same Field The present invention relates to transport flooring panels. In particular the present invention concerns a method of increasing resistance of a transport flooring panel against shear strain, in particular shear strain caused by rolling wear. The invention also concerns a transport flooring panel which comprises a multiply panel with an overlay, as well as a flooring structure of a freight transport vehicle.
Background Plywood panels are commonly used as flooring in freight transportation vehicles and trailers. For that purpose they are typically provided with a wire mesh-patterned surface to — increase friction between the flooring and any good loaded or stored as well as between the flooring and any wheels or rolls moving along on the flooring. Flooring panels are expected to have good mechanical properties, in particular the panels should be capable of withstanding shear strain exerted to the surface of the panel. This — shear strain is caused for example by rolling wear. The small and hard wheels of, for example hand pallet trucks which are commonly used in loading, unloading and handling goods, cause a very high surface pressure and, accordingly, a very high strain on the flooring material. The surface pressure exerted by a 1.5-ton hand pallet truck can be up to 2 o to 5 N/mm?, though the wheel loads are low, i.e. about 3 to 4 kN/wheel. An even greater O 25 — surface pressure may be caused by hard and small nylon wheels of retail distribution = trolleys, when such trolleys are moved along vehicle floors made of plywood. In these e cases, the surface load may rise to 5 to 15 N/mm”, though the wheel load may be only E about 1 to 2 kN/wheel. 3 30 The largest surface pressure is directed at the panel overlay and the face veneer = immediately under it. When the strain due to rolls becomes too high, the face veneer may N break, splitting in the middle of the veneer in the direction of the glue joints.
Birch plywood clearly has better resistance to rolling wear than combi-plywood. This is because the rolling shear strength of birch veneer is higher than that of spruce veneer.
Still, the resistance to rolling wear of conventional surfaced flooring panels, even if made ofbirch plywood, is unsatisfactory.
In the art various solutions have been proposed to enhance mechanical properties of flooring panels by the use of mechanically strong overlays composed of, for example, materials consisting of epoxy resin materials or reinforced by such material. However, such materials are typically expensive and even if the mechanical strength is increased, the overall cost of the flooring panel becomes unacceptably high. Epoxy materials are also difficult to apply onto the panel surface by conventional plywood processing.
EP 3392031 Al discloses a coated plywood panel comprising a first veneer layer comprising wood, a second veneer layer comprising wood, adhesive in between the first veneer layer and the second veneer layer, a waterproofing layer having a first side and a second side, and protective layer comprising a vapour permeable or semi-permeable layer. US 2011045308 Al discloses a coated wood board, in which the wood board is coated — with a coating material. The coating material is formed of polyolefin film, and polyolefin film is at least partially cross-linked.

WO 2014114850 A1 discloses the use as a casting bed of a wood object which is prepared — by treating the wood object with an agent that increases the hydrophobicity of wood, and which agent is capable of reacting with the hydroxyl groups of wood.
There is a need for novel transport flooring panels with enhanced mechanical strength, in particular against shear strains caused by rolling wear and similar surface pressure, which — can be manufactured basically by conventional plywood manufacturing processes.
Summary of the Invention It is an aim of the present invention to provide method of increasing resistance of a — transport flooring panel against rolling wear.
It is another aim of the present invention to provide a transport flooring panel which comprises a multiply panel. —Itisstill a third aim of the present invention to provide a flooring structure of a freight transport vehicle.
The present invention is based on the finding that for a transport flooring panel, which o typically has a friction-enhancing overlay, the strength of the panel against shear strain can N . . . e 25 be enhanced by impregnating, preferably saturating, the top veneer, below the overlay, = with a hydrophobic agent.
Surprisingly it has been found that the top veneer after such Q treatment will effectively dampen the pressure caused by the rolls and improve the = resistance of the flooring panel against rolling wear. a 0 3 30 Thus, the present invention provides a method of increasing resistance of a transport co S flooring panel, the panel comprising a multiply panel formed by a plurality of wood veneers and an overlay, which is bonded to the top veneer of the panel and which forms the surface of the panel, by saturating the top veneer with a hydrophobic agent before the overlay is attached to the top veneer.
More specifically, the present invention is characterized by whatis stated in the characterizing portion of the independent claims.
Considerable advantages are obtained by the invention. Thus, the invention provides for an efficient way of improving the panels’ resistance to the shear strain exerted to the panel surface by high surface pressure caused by, for example, rolls without there being any need for using expensive epoxy-type polymer reinforcements.
Tt is possible that this improvement is reached when the hydrophobic agent is caused to penetrate into the grains of the wood layer so that it replaces water inside the wood fibers. The veneer layers containing wood fibers, which are filled with hydrophobic agent, will then act as a hydroelastic layer which dampens the pressure caused by rolls. This is, naturally, merely one possible explanation and the scope of the invention is not to be construed as limited to the proposed explanation. The hydrophobic agent can be applied on the top veneer by conventional applications means, and after application of the hydrophobic agent, the overlay can be attached to the thus treated top veneer layer by using a separate glue layer or by means of resin migrating — from the overlay into the top veneer during conventional plywood overlay hot pressing. It has been found that the bond between the overlay and the top veneer is not impaired by hydrophobic agent provided that it penetrates into the wood grains.
S e 25 Further features and advantages of various embodiments of the present invention will = appear from the following detailed description. -
N z Brief Description of the Drawing a 3 30 The attached drawing shows in side-view the cross-section of a panel according to one co S embodiment of the present invention.
N Embodiments
By means of the present technology, a method is provided for increasing resistance of a transport flooring panel against rolling wear, which method comprises impregnating at least the top veneer of the multiply panel with a hydrophobic agent before the overlay is applied on and in particular hot pressed to the top veneer. 5 In one embodiment, a transport flooring panel of the present kind comprises a wood panel with an overlay which has a rough surface for enhancing friction of the surface. In the drawing, the principal composition of a panel of an embodiment of the present — technology is disclosed. Thus, reference numeral 4 designates a multiply panel comprising a plurality of overlapping wood layers, such as layers of wood veneer. Reference numeral 3 designates the top layer of the multiply panel, which layer has been impregnated with a hydrophobic — agents, as will be discussed more closely. Reference numeral 1 relates to the overlay which forms the upper surface of the flooring and reference numeral 2 refers to a glue layer for bonding of the overlay 1 to the top layer 3. “Flooring panel” refers to a wood panel for use as or used as flooring either on its own or preferably in conjunction with a supporting structure such as a frame. Typically, the present flooring panels are used in transport vehicles in which the flooring is built up by a plurality of flooring panels placed in lateral and longitudinal configuration (i.e. side-by-side, and one after the other), to form the floor of the vehicle.
S e 25 —*Impregnate” refers to the action of causing (the veneer, at least the top veneer of the = panel) to be permeated with the hydrophobic agent. “Saturate” is used for designating that e the impregnation is carried out to a point at which the veneer will not be capable of taking E up (absorbing) more hydrophobic agent at the prevailing conditions. 3 30 In the present context, the term “wood panel” refers to a board comprising a plurality of = overlapping wood layers (in the following also referred to as a “multiply panel” or “multiply structure”).
“Multiply panel”, for example as depicted in the attached drawing and designated the numeral 4, stands for boards which comprise a plurality of layers of overlapping sheet-like material. There are at least 2, preferably at least 3 layers, of such material. There can be up to about 250 overlapping layers, although in practice the maximum number is typically less than 100. The sheet-like material can be continuous or it can consist of several sheets orientated in the same plane; conventionally at least a majority of the layers of sheet-like material is formed by wood veneer or wood strands. The term “wood based layer” covers, e.g., wood veneer and wood strand.
In one embodiment, the multiply panel comprises, or consists of, or consists essentially of, a plurality of layers of wood veneer. There can, however, be a number of layers formed by material capable of conferring — preselected mechanical or chemical properties in the board, as well. Such materials are exemplified by metal foils, such as aluminium foils and films, textile layers, for example non-woven sheets, polymeric films and sheet, such as polyolefin, polyamide and EVOH films for barrier purposes, and polyamide and polyaramid films and fabrics for structural purposes.
Typically, in the present multiply panels, the majority of the layers are of wood material. The sheet-like materials are typically bonded together using intermittent layers of adhesive.
S e 25 The term “board” is used interchangeably with “panel” and stands for a piece of material = which has at least one planar surface. Preferably the “board” (or “panel”) has two opposite e planar surfaces which are generally orientated in parallel. x = Typically, in the present context, the core board is an elongated planar structure. It has 3 30 dimensions in the range from 10...15,000 mm times 10...20,000 mm. In particular the = present board has a width of 50...2500 mm and a length of 300...13,500 mm The s thickness of the “core board” is generally between 3 and 250 mm, in particular 4 to 120 mm.
In the present context, “one step pressing” stands for a pressing procedure wherein a stack, which is formed by overlapping layers of structural material and adhesive, is pressed by a pressing operation, typically carried out at one pressing station, until a predetermined compression strength of the board is obtained. The pressing can be carried out applying continuously increased compression or by applying compression at successive stages of different pressures. “Stack” stands for an organized pile of overlapping layers. “Hot pressing” stands for pressing at increased temperature and surface pressure over a period of time. According to embodiments of the present technology, methods are provided for producing boards suitable for flooring purposes.
One embodiment comprises in a combination the steps of — providing a wood based material in the form of a plurality of layers of such material and an adhesive suitable for bonding said layers to each other; and — arranging the layers of the wood based material into a stack with layers adhesive on between the wood based material layers. Any functional layers (cf. below) are preferably incorporated into the stack. o Such a method is typically referred to as a “one-step method” since all layers are first N . . . . e 25 stacked and then pressing is carried out in one step for the whole stack. Q Pressing is typically carried out at a temperature of 120 to 225 °C, for example 120 to 160 E °C for a time of approximately 4 to 90 minutes and at a pressure of 1 to 2.5 MPa, for a — example 1.1 to 1.7 MPa. 0 3 30 > The wood based material used for forming the core board is obtained by peeling or cutting of a suitable wood raw-material.
Typically, the wood layers or strands are produced from softwood or hardwood, such as spruce, pine, larch, birch, poplar, aspen, alder, eucalyptus or mixed tropical hardwood, or combinations thereof.
Particularly preferred embodiments comprise using hardwood, such as birch, at least as top veneer, in particular the panel comprises only hardwood, such as birch, as wood veneer layers.
The thickness of the wood based layers is generally from about 0.5 to 5 mm, in particular about 0.9 to 3.5 mm. In one embodiment, the wood based layers consist of wood veneer. The core board is typically a multi-ply veneer panel or laminated veneer lumber. In another embodiment, there are one or several layers of a non-wood material in the stack. Such layers, which can also be referred to as “functional layers”, will provide improved mechanical, chemical, biological and acoustic properties to the final product. The thickness of such non-wood layers is about 0.01 to 5 mm. For metal foils, the thickness is typically
0.01 to 0.5 mm, for polymeric layers typically 0.1 to 3 mm, for cork layers about 0.5 to 5 mm. The wood based layers and optionally non-wood layers are bonded together with an adhesive (not shown in the drawing). The adhesive can be an adhesive resin. The adhesive o resin can be provided in the form or a dry powder, for example as a hot melt adhesive, or asa O 25 liquid or as a combination thereof. The adhesive can be applied so as to form adhesive = layers which uniformly cover at least a part, in particular all or essentially all, of the Q adjacent surfaces. The adhesive can also or alternatively be applied in the form of = discontinuous spots or stripes. a 0 3 30 The adhesive is in particular a thermosetting polymer. Such polymers can be selected from co S the groups of phenol-formaldehyde adhesives, melamine-formaldehyde adhesives, urea-
N formaldehyde adhesives, polyurethane adhesives and lignin based resins and combinations thereof. The adhesive can be applied on the layers of wood based material and non-wood material in manners known per se, for example by coating or spraying. In one embodiment,
the adhesive is applied in the form of fibrous sheets which are impregnated with adhesive. To meet the reguirements of a flooring panel, the present wood panels are provided with an overlay (reference numeral 1 in the attached drawing), which enhances friction. Although the present technology will also improve shear strain resistance of panels having a smooth surface which provides low friction between the panel surface and any goods placed upon it, the present technology is particularly advantageous for flooring panels which have a friction- enhancing surface. Such a surface is typically rough or uneven, and will lessen or prevent the risk of sliding movements of goods placed upon the flooring panel.
In one embodiment, the surface of the panel is granulated. Such a surface can have a plurality of protruding spots to enhance friction In one embodiment, the surface has a regular pattern with linear depressions separated by — ridges, defining a grid on the surface. The surface of the panel can be made during processing to have a friction-enhancing pattern. In such an embodiment, the overlay is then simply hot pressed upon the wood panel. In one embodiment, the surface is wire mesh-patterned, which can be achieved by using pressing plates that have a corresponding patterning. In another embodiment, engraved plates or platters that have a suitable pattern are used during pressing to confer friction-enhancing surface patterns onto the surface of the panel. o Friction-enhancing web can also be glued to the surface in a separate phase after the hot- N . . S 25 — pressing of the coating. 2 In order to improve shear strain of the flooring panel, a hydrophobic agent is applied on the z top veneer (reference numeral 3 of the attached drawing). a O . 3 30 In one embodiment, the hydrophobic agent is selected from the group of waxes, oils, fats, co S fatty acids, alkanes, alkenes, their derivatives and their mixtures.
N In particular, the hydrophobic agent is selected from paraffin wax, silicone oil or alkene ketene dimer. The alkene ketene dimer (abbreviated AKD) is particularly preferred since it has an affinity to the hydroxyl groups present in wood. In one embodiment, the hydrophobic agent is applied from a composition which contains the hydrophobic agent in an amount of 10 to 100 % by weight, for example 60 to 100 % by weight. Thus, the hydrophobic agent can be used in the form of a dispersion, in particular an agueous dispersion, or as a solid material. Preferably, paraffin wax or alkene ketene dimer is used as the hydrophobic agent, and the — paraffin wax or alkene ketene dimer is used in solid form. The solid material is then molten before or during application on the top veneer.
To achieve saturation, the hydrophobic agent is preferably applied on the top veneer such that the wood fiber cavities of at least the top veneer are filled with hydrophobic agent.
— Further, in a particular preferred embodiment, the hydrophobic agent is applied on the top veneer such that at least a part of the hydrophobic agent will migrate from the top veneer to the next veneer below it.
In one embodiment, the hydrophobic agent will penetrate to a depth of at least 50 % of the — total thickness of the top veneer, in particular at least 75 %, in particular at least 90 % of the total thickness of the top veneer.
In one embodiment, the hydrophobic agent is applied on the top veneer such that at least o the top veneer and the veneer below it will be impregnated, or even saturated, with the N . S 25 hydrophobic agent. Q Generally, in order to achieve to achieve a thorough treatment of the top veneer, the = hydrophobic agent, such as AKD, is applied on the surface of the wood board in an amount a _ of at least 5 g/m”, in particular at least 10 g/m? and preferably from 15 to 300 g/m?, for ™ o 30 example 17 to 100 g/m? or 20 to 100 g/m? of 20 to 75 g/m?. In one embodiment the amount co S of hydrophobic agent is about 20 to 55 g/m”. The hydrophobic agent can be applied by spraying or coating, in particular roller coating. The hydrophobic agent can be applied in 1 to 5 portions on the veneer. Thus, in one embodiment, about 15 to 25 g of hydrophobic agent is applied 1 to 3 times. The interval between the applications will be sufficient to allow the hydrophobic agent migrate at least partially into the wood before the application of the next portion of the hydrophobic agent. The overlay covering the top veneer typically comprises at least one polymer resin coating layer having a surface weight of about 100 to 300 g/m?, for example 120 to 220 g/m?. The “polymer coating layer” is preferably a layer formed by a resin selected from phenol- formaldehyde adhesives, melamine-formaldehyde adhesives, urea-formaldehyde adhesives, polyurethane adhesives and lignin based resins and combinations thereof. In particular, the overlay comprises phenol-formaldehyde resin.
In one embodiment, the phenolic coating layer comprises a paper carrier substrate impregnated with a polymer resin, the paper substrate having a grammage of 40 to 80 g/m? and containing 80 to 140 g/m’ resin, such as phenolic resin.
Thus in an embodiment, the overlay comprises a paper substrate impregnated with a resin which has been applied on the surface of the top veneer of the multiply panel by pressing, in particular by hot pressing. Typically, the surface is given that structure during the pressing of the wood panel by using a pressing plate having a wire mesh pattern.
Hot pressing of the coated panel is typically carried out at a temperature of 120 to 225 °C, for example 120 to 200 °C for a time of approximately 30 to 900 seconds and at a pressure of 1.1 to 3 MPa, for example 1.5 to 2.4 MPa.
o In order to attach the overlay to the top veneer a resin is used. The bonding resin layer is O 25 depicted at reference numeral 2 of the attached drawing. The resin can be selected from = phenol-formaldehyde adhesives, melamine-formaldehyde adhesives, urea-formaldehyde S adhesives, polyurethane adhesives and lignin based resins and combinations thereof. It is E preferred to using a phenolic or a urethane resin, in particular a heat-activated resin, for — example a heat-activated phenolic resin.
3 30 > Such a glue layer (or adhesive layer) 2, will firmly bind the coating layer to the surface of the top wood-veneer layer even when the wood-veneer layer has been impregnated and at least partly saturated with a hydrophobic agent.
The resin can be applied by coating, brushing, rolling or spraying.
In one preferred embodiment the resin is applied impregnated in a carrier substrate, such as a non-woven substrate which substrate layer is placed as a sheet of material between the top layer and the overlay layer, and then bonded to the overlay and top layer during hot pressing.
As a result, in one embodiment of the invention, a composite laminate is formed, firmly bonded to the top veneer, comprising two overlapping carrier substrates, both of which are impregnated with resin and wax after the pressing, and which cannot be separated without — breaking up of the composite laminate.
Typically, the composite laminate is so firmly bonded to the top veneer that it cannot be separated from the top veneer either without breaking the veneer.
Based on the above, the present technology provides a transport flooring panel comprising —a multiply panel formed by a plurality of wood veneers and an overlay, which forms the surface of the panel, the panel having increased resistance to shear strain caused by rolling wear.
As has been referred to above, the flooring panels according to the present technology and — the various embodiments discussed can be used for providing flooring structures, for example flooring structure suitable for use in freight transport vehicles or trailers.
The flooring structure typically comprises a frame and a flooring formed by one or more transport flooring panels of the present kind attached to the frame.
The panels can be o mechanically bonded to the frame or they can be glued to the frame or they can be bonded O 25 by a combination of such steps. e Examples of uses for the present flooring panels include as flooring of a train wagon, a = vessel, such as a roro vessel, or a truck.
It has been found that with embodiments of the = present technology a rolling resistance can be achieved which is on the same order as that 3 30 — obtained for much thicker and more expensive overlays used in, for example, commercial = products.
Example A 30 mm birch ply panel was manufactured in a conventional way and hot pressed into a multiply panel.
The top wood-veneer of the multiply panel was sanded after pressing to smoothen out the surface. Then solid AKD wax was molten and spread upon the surface at about 50 g/m’. An impregnated non-woven adhesive film comprising a low-molecular PF resin was — applied upon the surface treated with the AKD wax applied with a coating roller. On the uncured adhesive film, a second film (a coating film) comprising a 220 g/m? phenol formaldehyde (PF) on an 80 g/m2 kraft paper was placed. The stack formed by the multiply panel with the PF resin film and the coating film were then overlaid by hot- pressing at 138 *C for 12 minutes at 2.2 MPa during the high-pressure section of the hot — pressing schedule. Resistance to rolling wear was tested with the aid of a roller tester. In the tester a steel wheel with a diameter of 125 mm and a width of 50 mm capable of exerting on the plywood surface a pressure of 2 kN was used, by moving the tester in a pattern across the — panel surface. The surface pressure exerted by the wheel is about 2 to 4 N/mm”, depending on the wheel” s imprint into the panel surface. The resistance to rolling wear is expressed in terms of the number of revolutions that the wheel of the tester has made at the point of wear. The test method corresponds fairly closely to Swedish standard SS 923508.

Glue Film + 220 28697 7174.25 In the table, the following abbreviations were used: “W” for wax (AKD), “1xW” for one application of wax with a coating roller, *2xW” for two applications of wax with a coating roller and *3xW” stands for three applications of wax with a coating roller; “Glue Film” for PF resin film, and “220” for 220 g/m? phenol formaldehyde coating film. The applied amount of wax was about 20 to 25 g/m? for one application with a coating — roller.
S S As will appear from the test results, the application of a combination of wax, a resin film = and a coating film, will provide a significant improvement on the resistance to rolling wear Q of the multiply panel. Compared to the bonding of a coating film to the surface of multiply Ek 15 — panel with a resin film, the incorporation of wax (for example AKD) into the top veneer a — will already at an application amount of about 20 to 25 g/m? give a rolling resistance which ™ 3 is 1.75 times greater than for the corresponding panel not containing wax. For greater 5 application amounts, the rolling resistance becomes close to 5 times greater.
