Abstract: An insect repellent fabric has a coating containing permethrin and a plasticizer, and a barrier covers the coating to protect the permethrin from degradation by ultraviolet light and oxygen. The barrier may be an acrylic coating or film, aluminum foil, a urethane coating or film, or an outer fabric barrier such as an awning or a tent fly.

Abstract: A dock shelter fabric comprising a core fabric formed from synthetic fibers, a base coat of polymeric material extending continuously over at least the one surface of the core fabric intended to be exposed to abrasion, and a second polymeric coating of abrasion resistant polymeric material fused in a discontinuous pattern to the continuous surface of the base coat; whereby the discontinuous coating resists abrasion without sacrificing flexibility of the fabric.
Abstract: A flame retardant, water-proof fabric useful for tenting, tarpaulins and protective clothing comprises a woven substrate formed from synthetic fibers intimately coated with a homegeneous composition of binders, flame retardants and plasticizers. The composition includes a blocked polyester/polyether urethane prepolymer which, when cured at a temperature sufficient to unblock the urethane, provides strong film integrity to bond the coating to the substrate and thereby increase the effective life of the product.
