Patent number: 10843438Abstract: A chemical barrier fabric and a method of manufacturing the fabric is provided. The chemical barrier fabric includes at least first and second chemical barrier layers which have an interfacial region therebetween and which are intermittently point bonded providing a point-bonded area which is in the minority and an un-bonded area which is in the majority in the interfacial region. The chemical barrier layers typically comprise single layer polymer films and/or co-extruded layers. A non-woven layer may also be point-bonded to either the first or the second chemical barrier layer to give support to the fabric.Type: GrantFiled: April 18, 2013Date of Patent: November 24, 2020Assignee: Ansell Microgard LimitedInventors: Leslie James Squires, Timothy Woodbridge

Publication number: 20200247096Abstract: A flexible, vapour permeable cargo cover laminate comprising: an outer layer comprising a substrate bearing a coating, the coating having particles of infra-red reflective matter dispersed within a polymeric matrix and providing an exposed low-emissivity surface on an outward face of the outer layer; and a support layer laminated to an inward face of the outer layer. Other cargo laminates, cargo covers and methods of insulating cargo are also disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 31, 2018Publication date: August 6, 2020Inventors: Timothy John Woodbridge, Leslie James Squires, James Smith

Publication number: 20160046096Abstract: A thermal insulation structure includes a plurality of inner air and water vapour permeable insulating layers which entrap air and a water vapour permeable, at least substantially air impermeable film layer separating two said water vapour permeable insulating layers, the inner layers being sandwiched between first and second outer air and liquid water impermeable, water vapour permeable outer film layers, the construction and arrangement of the layers being such as to control, in use, water vapour transmission through the thermal insulation structure. Alternatively, a thermal insulation structure includes a plurality of inner air and water vapour permeable insulating layers which entrap air and an inner air and water vapour impermeable film layer separating two said insulating air entrapment layers, the inner layers being sandwiched between first and second outer air, liquid and moisture vapour impermeable outer film layers.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 30, 2015Publication date: February 18, 2016Inventors: Leslie James Squires, Timothy Woodbridge

Publication number: 20110130062Abstract: An insulation material (3) for use in, or when used in, building and/or construction, including a moisture vapour permeable, liquid water and air impermeable, monolithic, dimensionally stable, substrate layer (1) bearing an overlying moisture vapour permeable, liquid water impermeable, low emissivity layer (2) applied as a thin organic coating containing infrared reflective matter. The substrate layer (1) may be laminated to a support layer (5) having a strength which is greater than that of the substrate layer by an intermittent adhesive 4.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 22, 2008Publication date: June 2, 2011Applicant: HUNT TECHNOLOGY LIMITEDInventor: Leslie James Squires

Publication number: 20090311495Abstract: A chemical barrier fabric (12) and a method of manufacturing the fabric is described. The chemical barrier fabric (12) includes at least first (18) and second (20) chemical barrier layers which have an interfacial region therebetween and which are intermittently point bonded (34) providing a point-bonded area which is in the minority and an un-bonded area (36) which is in the majority in the interfacial region. The chemical barrier layers (18, 20) typically comprise single layer polymer films and/or co-extruded layers. A non-woven layer 22 may also be point-bonded to either the first (18) or the second (20) chemical barrier layer to give support to the fabric (12).Type: ApplicationFiled: October 20, 2006Publication date: December 17, 2009Applicant: Hunt Technology LimitedInventors: Leslie James Squires, Timothy Woodbridge

Patent number: 6986825Abstract: A method of and apparatus for laminating a first material (40) such as a spunbonded polymer having a point emboss pattern (41) formed thereon, to a second material (43) such as a polymer film, involves use of a lamination process using a point lamination pattern (56) provided on a heated calender roll (50). One or more geometric characteristics of two patterns (41, 56) such as bonding/contact area, pitch or angle of axes, is selected and differentiated, prior to lamination, to control, during lamination, the amount of point or mis-registration between the two patterns (41, 56). The laminate (60) can have optimum all over lamination if the amount of point mis-registration is maximized. An adhesive can be provided between the first and second materials (40, 43) to enable lamination of dissimilar composition materials.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 1999Date of Patent: January 17, 2006Assignee: Hunt Technology LimitedInventors: Leslie James Squires, Timothy Woodbridge
