Abstract: A decorative panel includes a substrate, a decor layer and a cover layer. The cover layer has a lacquer or is composed of a lacquer. The lacquer includes antimicrobial additives; and has an acrylate matrix and/or a methacrylate matrix.

Abstract: A sheet includes a support layer and a coating layer on a side of the support layer. The coating layer is partially cured. The coating layer has carbon-carbon double bonds. The relative amount of carbon-carbon double bonds is higher at the surface of the coating layer than at the contact surface of the coating layer with the support layer. Methods are disclosed to manufacture such sheets; and to produce a decorative panel using such sheets.

Abstract: Sheet material includes at least two layers of material, wherein a first layer of material forms more than half the thickness of the sheet material and is mainly built up from wood particles glued by means of a first binder and pressed. The first binder is thermosetting, wherein the second layer of material is present on the surface of the aforementioned sheet material and is mainly built up from particulate particles glued by a second binder and pressed. The second binder is thermoplastic and/or elastomeric.

Abstract: A panel having a substrate and a top layer provided thereon, wherein the top layer comprises at least a melamine resin and a binder, the binder being selected from the group comprising: polyacrylates based binder, polyvinyl acetate based binder, polyester based binder, acrylic copolymers based binder or urethane based binder.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a decorative foil may involve providing a thermoplastic carrier layer. An ink receiving layer may be provided to the carrier layer. A decorative pattern may be formed on the carrier layer by performing a digital printing operation wherein droplets of aqueous inks having a volume smaller than 100 pL are jet to the carrier layer, more particularly to the ink receiving. The ink receiving layer may comprise a binding agent, preferably different from an acrylic copolymer, and/or silica.

Abstract: An inkjet receiver coating may be used in a method for manufacturing a paper or a thermoplastic foil that is printable with an inkjet printer. The paper or the foil may be used as a decor paper or a decor foil, respectively, in a laminate panel. The paper or the foil may be coated on at least one side with the inkjet receiver coating. The inkjet receiver coating may include at least pigment and binder, and an ink reactive compound.

Abstract: Coated panel with at least a substrate (2) and a top layer applied thereto (3), wherein the above-mentioned top layer (3) comprises at least a decor layer (4) and a translucent or transparent wear layer (5), characterized in that the above-mentioned wear layer (5) comprises a thermally cured acrylate resin or a thermally cured unsaturated polyester resin. Preferably, wherein thermal curing partially or completely cures the resin. In particular, wherein the above-mentioned acrylate resin or unsaturated polyester resin is at least partially cured by means of a thermally initiated radical crosslinking reaction. The invention further relates to a method for the production of such coated panels (1), in particular floor panels.

Abstract: A method is provided for manufacturing a paper or a thermoplastic foil or a vitrimeric foil printable with an inkjet printer for use as a decor paper, respectively a decor foil in a laminate or laminated panel. The method may involve providing a paper layer, respectively a foil. At least one side of the paper layer, respectively of the foil, may be coated with an inkjet receiver coating that includes at least pigment and binder. The inkjet receiver coating may include an ink reactive compound. The papers and foils may be provided with a printed pattern and used as a decor in the panels.
