Abstract: The present invention relates to an article having an elastic main body based on at least one thermoplastic elastomer or based on a vulcanizate and having an article surface that is provided with a textile overlay in the form of a plated knitted fabric, wherein the textile overlay is composed of at least two types of yarn that alternate in the individual knitted courses at regular intervals.

Abstract: A power transmission belt (20) having an elastic main body (17) includes a top layer as the belt backing and a bottom section having a power transmission zone. The power transmission zone and/or the top layer has/have a coating (15, 16), characterized in that the coating (15, 16) of the power transmission zone and/or the top layer includes at least the following layer construction: a base coating (18) made of a textile material, wherein the base coating (18) forms a bond with the elastic main body (17) and has a surface coating (19) including at least a mixture A, which contains at least one reactive diluent as per DIN 55945:2007-03. The invention further relates to a method for producing such a power transmission belt. The novel coating concept is applicable in particular in a toothed belt.
