  • Patent number: 9993978
    Abstract: The present disclosure encompasses three-dimensional articles comprising flexible-composite materials and methods of manufacturing said three-dimensional articles. More particularly, the present system relates to methods for manufacturing seamless three-dimensional-shaped articles usable for such finished products as airbags/inflatable structures, bags, shoes, and similar three-dimensional products. A preferred manufacturing process combines composite molding methods with specific precursor materials to form fiber-reinforced continuous shaped articles that are flexible and collapsible.

  • Patent number: 9944042
    Abstract: A waterproof breathable material has a higher strength-to-weight ratio and higher tear resistance-to-weight ratio than traditional materials, and may be applied in a wide field of potential uses. A non-woven composite material comprises at least one waterproof breathable (W/B) membrane, a first unidirectional non-woven composite layer having multiple fibers enclosed by adhesive in parallel to each other, a second unidirectional non-woven composite layer having multiple fibers enclosed in adhesive in parallel to each other. The first unidirectional non-woven composite layer is positioned such that the fibers are oriented 90° relative to the fibers of the second unidirectional non-woven composite layer, and a space is formed between the first and second multiple fibers. No adhesive is present in the space.

  • Publication number: 20150275051
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes adherable flexible composite systems, which in various embodiments are preformed tapes and sheets comprising lamellar arrangements of engineered flexible-composite compositions. The flexible-composite compositions can comprise non-woven or other fibers oriented into networks and embedded in various polymer compositions. In various embodiments, the polymer compositions act as adhesive layers. The system of adhearable compositions can be configured to provide a structural orientation and structurally optimized for various taped applications. In accordance with various embodiments, a composite laminate tape can comprise a first fiber matrix layer having a first side and a second side, and an adhesive layer bonded to the second side of the first fiber matrix layer. The first fiber matrix layer can be a spread filament having monofilaments therein, the monofilaments lying in a first predetermined direction within the composite laminate tape.
