Abstract: An apparatus for the manufacture of an air laid web in which individual cellulose fibers or textile fibers or their blends can be conveyed and distributed by air uniformly onto a forming zone composed of either a foraminous screen or a fibrous melt blown matrix on top of a consolidating vacuum box.

Abstract: A nonblocking coated elastomeric film comprises an elastomeric polymer film layer and a nonblocking solvent-based coating layer. The coating layer comprises a nonblocking coating component. The coating layer may be applied to one or both surfaces of the elastomeric polymer film layer.

Abstract: A method for forming a multilayer elastomeric laminate comprises laminating an elastomeric film onto a first substrate to form a laminate web having an elastomeric film surface, and slitting the laminate web to form laminate strips. At least one strip is then bonded on its elastomeric film surface to a second substrate having a width greater than the width of the laminate strip to form a multilayer elastomeric laminate. The multilayer elastomeric laminate may then be subjected to additional processing, including but not limited to activation, aperturing, and/or lamination to other materials.
