Abstract: A laminate is claimed, having a first cover layer, a fabric with perforations as the middle layer, and a second cover layer, as are a method for its production and the use of the laminate as a fluid absorption and distribution layer made of a nonwoven fabric layer oriented in the Z direction, for absorbent hygiene articles. A three-dimensional form is achieved in that the fabric is present in the shrunk state in the middle layer, i.e. is brought into this state.

Abstract: A three-dimensionally structured fibrous web made up of continuous-filament layers which alternate perpendicular to the surface plane, and denser short-fiber layers that are permanently thermally bonded in a continuous or spot-like manner to the filament layers, the wide-mesh continuous-filament layers representing a scrim, lattice, or netting, has on the short-fiber layers repeating, fold- or wave-shaped elevations. In the manufacturing process, all of the layers of the laminate are subjected together to a shrinkage process at a temperature which lies between the softening and melting points of the scrim material.

Abstract: A hook and loop fastener for flat structures, particularly for textile products, having a hook part and an interlocking part, the interlocking part being made of a nonwoven composite having worked-in, textured, polymeric threads, the nonwoven composite being used as support for the textured threads, and the textured threads forming the loops for the hooks.

Abstract: A medical bandaging material made of a microfilament nonwoven fabric with a mass per unit area of 30 to 150 g/m2 and a tear strength of >40 N/5 cm, the nonwoven fabric being made of continuous multicomponent filaments, melt-spun, stretched, and directly laid down to form a nonwoven fabric, having a titer of 1.5 to 5 dtex, and the continuous multicomponent filaments, after optional prebonding, being split, at least to the extent of 80%, into continuous microfilaments having a titer of 0.01 to 1.0 dtex and bonded.

Abstract: A voluminous non-woven fabric that has a textured yarn shot through it, at least in one preferential direction, where an endless filament and/or staple fiber non-woven fabric with a mass per unit area of 5 to 100 g/m2 has a textured multifilament yarn with a titer in the range of 10 to 400 dtex shot through it, and where the distance of the multifilament yarns from one another is 1 to 10/cm, and the mesh number is 0.5 to 8/cm, and the multifilament yarn threads are shrunk by 3 to 80%, using moist-thermal or wet-thermal treatment.

Abstract: Bodies containing superabsorber polymers, having superabsorber polymers bonded together with polymer fibers, wherein at least part of the superabsorber polymers are present as a microporous open-celled foam. The bodies are used for producing diapers, sanitary napkins, tampons and other articles of personal hygiene.

Abstract: A flame penetration blocker for fuselages which is a laminate of a 100 to 600 g/m.sup.2 mica paper having laminated on one or both sides of it 30 to 300 g/m.sup.2 needled fabric layers made of flame-retardant fibers. The adhesive effect of the laminate is produced by a partially cross-linked, latently adhesive, temperature resistant binding agent incorporated into the mica paper itself. The laminate is made by adhesive bonding one or both surfaces of a mica paper of the named type with a needled fabric layer under pressure and at a temperature that does not trigger the final cross-linking of the binding agent.

Abstract: In a process for manufacturing an interior fitted part for motor vehicles, such as an inside roof lining for automobiles, a staple-fiber formed fabric of a drawn polyethylene terephthalate matrix component and of a binding component is subjected at least once during the process to an annealing process, which increases the thermal stability of the fitted part. Also disclosed is a fitted part manufactured by this method.

Abstract: A microporous, polymeric film is prepared by dissolving methylene-chloride-soluble, film-forming polymers completely in methylene chloride. Then an aqueous phase is prepared containing non-methylene-chloride-soluble, water-soluble thickeners and, if desired, additives, and brought to a viscosity of about 0.07 to 0.5 Pa s. The aqueous phase is then dispersed in the polymer solution and the resultant paste is spread onto a support material or intermediate support, the methylene chloride is evaporated, the resultant membrane is transferred to the actual support, and finally the water is removed by drying.

Abstract: Disclosed is a process for producing a surgical sponge which contains contrast agent embedded in a polymer matrix in proportions of up to 70 wt. %. The matrix consists of a polymer material free of plasticizers. In the process for the production of the sponge a matrix for the contrast agent is used, which is an uncrosslinked, viscous liquid, prepolymer state until after it has been extruded onto the basic fleece material, and not until a process step that then follows is the polymerization completed.

Abstract: The invention disclosed herein relates to a method for bonding the opposing surfaces of textile materials to each other with a heat-seal adhesive. The heat-seal adhesive is a polyurethane urea heat-seal adhesive prepared by first preparing a chain-extended polyurethane from at least one diisocyanate, at least one polydiol, and chain-extenders. The chain-extenders may comprise a mixture of low molecular weight diols comprised of at least one low molecular weight diol having a molecular weight below about 500 and having side chains or ether groups, and at least one unbranched low molecular weight diol having a molecular weight below about 500. The chain-extended polyurethane has a free-isocyanate group content which comprises from about 10 to about 40 mole percent of the isocyanate content of the starting mixture. An emulsifier is added to the chain-extended polyurethane, and the polyurethane and emulsifier mixture is emulsified with water. Diamines or diamine mixtures may be added to the emulsion.
