Tufted carpet is widely used in residential, commercial, hospitality, and other flooring applications. During production, the backing system plays an important role in maintaining the connection between the tufted yarn and the backing structure.
SBR latex for tufted carpet backing can be incorporated into formulations designed to support:
The final performance of the carpet backing system may depend on the combination of SBR latex, filler loading, additives, coating weight, and drying conditions.
For manufacturers using high-filler carpet backing formulations, viscosity and rheology can also influence coating behavior and production stability.
The selection of SBR latex should therefore be evaluated according to the carpet construction and production process.
