Abstract: A personal hygiene wipe that includes a contained and controlled exothermic chemical reaction to provide warmth for the wipe. The fabric of the wipe, such as a rayon and polyester fabric also includes a first or chemical outer pouch, a second or water containing pouch inside the first pouch, such that the first pouch is sealed so that upon application of pressure to the wipe, the spread of the water into contact with the chemicals initiates the exothermic reaction.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for forming sheets, comprising a pair of drums moving a belt to define a path for curing the sheets. Uncured material, preferably polychloroprene, is put on the belt and squeezed between the drum and a roller to adjust the thickness of the layer. The drums rotate at a rate to permit the material to cure between the first and the second drum. Ovens cure the polychloroprene, which is removed at the second drum. The sheet has a thickness of from at least 0.004 inches to more than 0.25 inches. A plurality of sources supply material of at least two colors to form a sheet having stripes. Preferred sheets have an elongation to break of about 150% to about 1500%, a tensile strength of about 5 Mpa to about 50 Mpa and a modulus at 300% elongation of about 1 Mpa to about 10 Mpa.
