  • Reversible fabric for use in military environments and method of making same
    Publication number: 20010004571
    Abstract: A reversible fabric particularly for use in the production of military rainflies is described. The fabric has first and second faces, each of which has a visually distinct color in order that rainflies and other articles made from the fabric can be used to provide inconspicuous shelter in two visually distinct environments. Each of the sides of the fabric provides requisite degrees of visual opacity and infrared reflectance, as well as other functional properties—such as water-resistance, etc. The fabric includes a dyed textile substrate and three coats of pigmented polyurethane having varying compositions; the composite fabric can be produced by a coating and/or laminating process.
