Abstract: The invention relates to a multi-layer plastic film (1, 1?, 1?) for coating components manufactured by compression molding. The film comprises at least a first layer (2, 2?, 2?) consisting of a first plastic material and a second layer (4, 4?, 4?) consisting of a second plastic material. Furthermore, the first plastic material has a higher temperature resistance than the second plastic material, with the second plastic material being thermoplastic.

Abstract: The invention relates to an acoustically effective wheel house covering for vehicles, i.e. a wheel house covering which can reduce transmission of splash water noises in the passenger compartment of the vehicle and which can absorb the sound of rolling tires on a roadway, which wheel house covering comprises several layers of material.

Abstract: The invention relates to a self-supporting, sound-absorbing lining for the engine bonnet of motor vehicles, comprising at least one layer of open-cell foamed material which on at least one side is covered with a covering nonwoven, an open-pored coating that connects the covering nonwoven to the layer of foamed material being applied to at least one side of the layer of foamed material. In order to improve this type of lining with regard to its dimensional stability at temperatures of up to 180° C. and when in a damp environment and without using nonwovens made from synthetic mineral fibres, the invention proposes that the coating be formed from a powder mixture that consists of at least one thermoplastic component, at least one cross-linking component and mineral microbodies, preferably hollow microbodies.

Abstract: The invention relates to an insulation element (4, 4′), at least one nonwoven layer (5) and/or a foam layer (11) being enclosed by a film layer (1), and, to achieve a solution which is adequately permeable to water vapour but nevertheless flame-retardant, proposes that the film layer (1) consists of a flame-retardant material which is preferably closed to vapour diffusion, that the film layer (1) also has through-openings (2) and that the through-openings (2) are open to vapour diffusion.

Abstract: An insulation member (1) based on non-woven material, wherein In order to provide the insulation member based on non-woven it material, which is distinguished by fulfilling one or more requirements such as a high level of sound absorption and sound damping, high heat insulation and low formation of liquid water at high temperature gradients and high humidity gradients, a layered construction is provided from different non-woven materials such as padding-type (fleece) non-woven material or melt-extruded non-woven spun material.
