Abstract
Vapor deposited metal nitride or oxide thin films serve as a wear layer for surface coverings after being formed on a release layer and transferred to an organic layer. A release layer such as sodium chloride on glass can be dissolved by water; while a self-supporting release layer can be removed by solvent, etching, laser abatement, or delamination.
