Why Carpet Can Delaminate?
Delamination is usually caused when the bonding agent between the primary and secondary backing of the carpet grow weaker. Sometimes this can be a blemish from the factory, but it can also be caused by accidents such as water scratch and spills. Depending on the quality of the carpet that was purchased, the epoxy resin can be lower-grade that dissolves easier than others, or protracted exposure to moisture may have weakened the bond. Getting soaked isn't the only cause of delamination, though. Strong substances that have high acidic or basic content, such as pet urine or powerful chemical cleaning agents, can also lead to deteriorating the glue holding the backing together. Once the agent is gone, any kind of motion will cause the carpet to pucker up, and extended use will cause the fabric to tear further, making the predicament worse over time.
