Abstract: An imitation leather including a three-dimensional textile supporting material and a PVC-based covering that is applied to one side of the supporting material and includes three successively applied layers. The first layer of which is applied directly to the supporting material without an adhesion-promoting glue layer, the second layer of which is embodied as an intermediate layer and applied directly to the first layer and the third layer of which serves as a top layer and is applied directly to the second layer. This invention also discloses a method for producing such an imitation leather and an interior component of a motor vehicle having a visible surface that is composed of such an imitation leather.

Abstract: Waterproof, water vapour-permeable multilayer membrane having at least one first and one second layer, with all the layers being made of a thermoplastic polymer from the group of polyether esters, the group of polyether amides or the group of polyether urethanes and being joined together, characterised in that contiguously arranged layers are made of thermoplastic polymers from different groups.

Abstract: Evaporation reservoir for recovering purified water, with an interior for holding water to be purified, the interior enclosed by walls that are watertight and joined to each other in a watertight manner, at least one wall consisting at least partially of a laminate that has a textile fabric and a watertight, non-porous, and water-vapor permeable membrane, and with an opening for filling the interior, characterized in that at least one edge of the laminate is joined to an edge of the adjacent wall via a tensile-resistant, watertight tape in such a manner that the tensile-resistant, watertight tape is joined on the one hand to the textile fabric and on the other hand watertight to the membrane and extends beyond the edge of the laminate, and the watertight joint with the edge of the adjacent wall is formed exclusively by the part of the watertight tape that extends beyond the laminate.
