Publication number: 20130029550Abstract: A water vapor-permeable, air-impermeable and water-impermeable sheet material comprises a film bonded to a fibrous substrate. The film comprises a reaction extrusion-processed blend comprising a first block copolymer which comprises a polyether block amide copolymer and a second block copolymer which comprises a copolyether ester. The fibrous substrate may be woven or non-woven, and may comprise polyethylene, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, a polyamide, glass mat, felt, paper, or combinations thereof. The water vapor transmission rate of the extruded film is substantially higher than that of a film made from either one of the component block copolymers. The sheet material has uses which include housewrap, roofing underlayment, breathable apparel, desiccant packaging and others.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 25, 2011Publication date: January 31, 2013Applicant: IBCO SRLInventors: Manish K. Seth, Gary Shokar

Publication number: 20110177734Abstract: An industrial packaging material comprises a woven scrim of stretchable thermoplastic tapes bonded to a stretchable non-woven water-impermeable layer. The scrim and the non-woven layer are made from a blend comprising a polyolefin and an elastomer. The thermoplastic tapes of the scrim have a degree of elongation before breaking in the range of 20% to 500%.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 28, 2011Publication date: July 21, 2011Applicants: INTERWRAP INC., IBCO SRLInventors: Martin Vido, Timothy A. Williams, Manish K. Seth

Patent number: 7838445Abstract: A multi-layered sheet material for wrapping metal goods to protect them from corrosion during storage has a water impermeable and water vapor-impermeable outer layer comprising a coated woven scrim and a water-impermeable and water vapor permeable inner layer comprising a micro-perforated film. The inner layer incorporates corrosion inhibitors. The outer and inner layers are bonded along their longitudinal edges leaving a space between the layers into which water vapor can migrate away from the wrapped metal product.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2005Date of Patent: November 23, 2010Assignees: Interwrap Inc., IBCO SRLInventor: Martin Vido

Publication number: 20100247872Abstract: A sheet of material suitable for roofing or industrial wrapping applications has an anti-skid surface formed by ridges of twisted tapes. The sheet comprises a woven scrim of warp tapes and weft tapes. Some of the tapes are twisted about their longitudinal axis, for example about 25 to 400 revolutions per meter, to form ridges having a height substantially greater than the thickness of the tapes. The ridges impart an anti-skid surface to the sheet. The scrim is bonded to a coating or film to make the sheet waterproof.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 5, 2008Publication date: September 30, 2010Applicant: IBCO SRLInventors: Manish K. Seth, Martin Vido

Publication number: 20100203292Abstract: A sheet material with an anti-skid surface, suitable for use as a roofing underlayment or wrapper, comprises a scrim made of woven plastic tapes with monofilaments that are round in cross-section and have a diameter larger than the thickness of the plastic tapes interwoven with the tapes. The monofilaments form ridges on the sheet material that impart an enhanced coefficient of friction to it. The monofilaments may be incorporated in the weave in the warp or weft directions or both.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 5, 2008Publication date: August 12, 2010Applicant: IBCO SRLInventors: Manish K.

Publication number: 20070093156Abstract: A sheet of coated scrim in which the scrim is seamless and the sheet has a width greater than that available using conventional manufacturing methods. A tubular scrim is flattened, coated on a first side, then coated on a second side, with a part of the coatings overhanging on one edge of the scrim. The flattened and coated tube is then slit along the opposite edge and the sheet is opened. The coating overhangs form a ridge along one side of the sheet and the ridge contains no scrim.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 20, 2006Publication date: April 26, 2007Applicants: INTERWRAP INC., IBCO SRLInventor: Martin Vido

Publication number: 20070084322Abstract: An apparatus for cutting lines of perforation in a sheet material, for example sheets of flexible fabric or wrapping material made of woven thermoplastic tapes or threads, has a pair of cutting blades spaced from each other and each having a plurality of teeth which are straight or oriented at an angle relative to the base of the blade and are generally parallel to each other. The angle of the teeth of the second blade is oriented in an opposite direction to the angle of the teeth of the first blade. The teeth of the second cutting blade are offset relative to those of the first blade.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 19, 2006Publication date: April 19, 2007Applicants: INTERWRAP INC., IBCO SRLInventor: Timothy Williams

Patent number: 7132376Abstract: A multi-layer woven scrim, having two or more layers made of thermoplastic tapes, has its layers attached together by means of layer-connecting tapes interwoven with mutually perpendicular tapes of adjacent layers. The points of attachment may be at spaced intervals and in the machine or cross-machine directions. The scrim is flexible, dimensionally stable and has high tensile and tear strength. It can be coated and used as an industrial fabric.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2004Date of Patent: November 7, 2006Assignees: Interwrap, Inc., IBCO SRLInventor: Mohamed Abdel Aziz Rashed

Patent number: 6925766Abstract: There is provided a sheet material having a walking surface with high slip resistance. The sheet material has a flexible structural layer laminated to a mesh layer which has interconnected reinforced strands and protruding nodes to impart a high coefficient of friction. The high coefficient of friction of the sheet material provides a roofing underlayment which is safe to walk upon in dry, wet or dusty conditions, and on steeply sloped surfaces. The sheet material may also be used as an industrial wrapping material or a fabric.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 2003Date of Patent: August 9, 2005Assignee: IBCO SrlInventor: Sandro Di Pede
