  • Molded fabric articles of olefin block interpolymers
    Patent number: 7776770
    Abstract: Knit fabric compositions have now been discovered that often have a balanced combination of desirable properties. Said fibric compositions comprise fibers of olefin block interpolymers or homogeneous branched ethylene polymers or a combination thereof. The fibers are characterized by an amount of crosslinking such that the fabric is capable of being molded.
