  • Double-sided slip-resistant material and method of making same
    Patent number: 8865038
    Abstract: A double-sided, slip resistant material is produced using a blown film process which produces a film having an interior heat sealable layer, a core layer of flexible polyolefin and an exterior polyolefin elastomer layer in combination with a blowing agent and optionally grit to produce a double-sided slip resistant material. A number of rollers may be provided after nip rollers have fused the film together, and which form part of a machine direction orienter (MDO) that may be used in line in the manufacturing process to heat, and then cool and condition (anneal and relieve any stresses and/or thickness inconsistencies in the film) prior to the film being wound onto a roll for storage.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 9, 2013
    Date of Patent: October 21, 2014
    Assignee: Multi Technologies Industrial L.L.C.
    Inventors: George M. Orlych, Mike C. Sullivan
