ABSTRACT:
A cellular foam coated fabric suitable for use as a ceiling board facing is produced by sculpturing a layer of vinyl or acrylic foam on at least one side of a nubby textured greige fabric, the foam containing a latex polymer cell producing surfactant, a white powdered pigment, and flame retardants if required. The foam is applied to the fabric in quantities sufficient to cover the face of the fabric, which is then passed through gapped means such as gapped pad rolls. These gapped rolls distribute the foam onto the entire face of the fabric and remove excess foam to provide extra depth and nubbiness to said fabric face without hiding completely the original fabric pattern without crushing the foam or the fabric. The result is a three-dimensional or sculptured fabric with the foam greatly enhancing the loft, texture and nubbiness of the fabric. The coated fabric is useful as a ceiling board facing.
