  • Patent number: 11613109
    Abstract: A multilayer substrate material configured to be applied to a back surface of an upholstery or mattress textile fabric and a front surface configured to contact a user of the upholstery or mattress textile fabric. The multilayer substrate material includes protector, adhesive, film and backcoat layers. The adhesive layer is applied to the protector layer and formed of a number of discrete and non-continuous regions. The film layer is applied to the adhesive layer. The number of discrete and non-continuous regions include an interface between the protector layer and the film layer such that the protector layer touches the film layer at the interface. The backcoat layer is applied to the film layer and includes a non-acrylic binder and a flame retardant material. The number of discrete and non-continuous regions form a number of non-adhesive regions therebetween configured to not resist flexing of the protector, film and backcoat layers.

  • Patent number: 11235556
    Abstract: A finished composite material having a film layer, a fibrous material layer and a discontinuous adhesive region layer situated between the film layer and the fibrous material layer. The discontinuous adhesive region layer adheres the film layer to the fibrous material layer. The discontinuous adhesive layer forms a number of discrete and non-continuous regions including an interface between the film layer and the fibrous material layer such that the film layer touches the fibrous material layer at the interface. The number of discrete and non-continuous regions forms a number of non-adhesive regions therebetween configured to not resist flexing of the film layer and the fibrous material layer. The finished composite material further includes an upholstery or mattress textile fabric substrate having a thickness of 0.5 to 2.0 millimeters. The front surface of the upholstery or mattress textile fabric substrate is configured to contact a user of the fabric substrate.

  • Publication number: 20190344550
    Abstract: A finished composite material. The material includes a substrate having back and front surfaces, a film layer having first and second surfaces, and a backcoat layer having first and second surfaces. The first surface of the film layer is applied to the back surface of the substrate. The first surface of the backcoat layer is applied to the second surface of the film layer. The backcoat layer includes a non-acrylic binder and a flame retardant material.
