Investigation of the functional properties of PVC and PET films used for finishing furniture fronts. In the study selected properties of PVC and PET films used for MDF surface finishing were examined. The average thickness of the PVC and PET films was respectively 388.9 and 379.4 μm. PVC films were characterized by significantly higher variability of weight loss, and thus higher Taber ratio variability in comparison with PET films. However, no significant difference between the abrasion resistance of PVC and the abrasion resistance of PET films was identified. The PVC and PET films were characterized by first degree scratch resistance. Depending on the load, the average scratches on the PET film were from 33 to 45% wider than on the PVC film. The relative hardness of the PET film was about 45% higher than the hardness of the PVC film.
