  • Water impervious carpet backing
    Patent number: H2041
    Abstract: Aqueous liquids, such as water, can normally penetrate through conventional carpet. Thus, in cases where water is spilled on conventional carpet, it typically seeps through and ultimately reaches the flooring below. This trapped water can lead to bacterial or fungal growth which can further cause odors and/or deterioration of the carpet backing or flooring. This invention relates to a technique for treating carpet to render it impervious to aqueous liquids.
