Abstract: An improved metal coated textile and its production method where the coating of metal is deposited onto the textile through sputtering process in thickness between 20 to 2000 angstroms, with less than 5% variance in thickness across the entire length and width of the textile with width up to and over 10000 mm and length up to and over 1000 meters. The improved sputtering process utilizes longer cathodes, arrangements of metal target(s), tension controller with tension meter(s), guard(s), cylinder cover(s), and control over the textile while traveling through the chamber. The metal layer deposited is highly adhesive to the textile and is suitable for producing clothing, swim wear, diving suit, tent, cushion, wall paper, curtain, carpet, protective cover, screen window, equipment casing, and various other items.

Abstract: A functional sheet is coated with physically vapor-deposited film including titanium oxide and other metallic oxides for making the film transparent so color and pattern on the fiber sheet are visible, providing electric conductivity to the film, improving the productivity of vapor deposition and enabling selective blocking of infrared and ultraviolet radiation.

Abstract: A fiber sheet composed of knitted, woven, or non-woven fiber, which is resistant against contamination, and such contamination is easily washed off, and is durable, and suitable for use as materials to make curtains, tapestries, screens, flags, wallpaper, and sliding screen door (fusuma), for both indoor and outdoor environments. The fiber sheet is coated on its both sides of the fiber by ceramics composed of oxidized, nitrogenous, or carbonized forms of metals such as tin, titanium, aluminum, and other metals, forming a thin contamination resistant coating. Typically, the contamination resistant coating comprises SiO2 or SnO2 or a combination/mixture of the two substances, and such coating is hard and is superior in protection against contamination.
