The styrene-butadiene latex backing of artificial turf is an essential part of the artificial turf installation process. It plays a key role in the stability, durability and comfort of artificial turf. The following are the main functions of artificial turf adhesive:
1. Provide solid support
The artificial turf adhesive can be closely combined with the ground to form a strong support layer, making the artificial turf difficult to move or deform. This solid support ensures the smoothness of the lawn surface and overall stability.
2. Enhance durability
Adhesive backing can improve the wear resistance and durability of artificial turf. It can reduce the friction between the grass and the bottom layer, extend the service life of artificial turf, and enable it to withstand long-term use and various climatic conditions.
3. Improve comfort
The artificial turf adhesive has certain cushioning properties, which can reduce the impact when walking and make the lawn surface softer and more comfortable. This comfort improves the experience of being active on the lawn, especially when engaging in sports or recreational activities.
4. Enhance water resistance
The adhesive backing can effectively prevent moisture from penetrating into the bottom layer of the lawn and keep the lawn surface dry. Not only does this help reduce moisture attack on the underlying material, it also prevents the lawn from developing mold or odors due to prolonged periods of moisture.
5. Improve drainage performance
Artificial turf adhesive is usually designed with drainage holes, which can promote the rapid drainage of water and prevent water from accumulating on the surface of the lawn to form water, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the artificial turf due to water accumulation.
6. Environmental protection and safety
Using environmentally friendly artificial turf adhesive can reduce the consumption of natural resources and comply with environmental standards. At the same time, some adhesive backings also add fire protection, UV protection and other functions to improve the safety of artificial turf.
