Abstract: A flame resistant composite fabric includes a first flame resistant fabric layer, a second flame resistant fabric layer, and a barrier layer that bonds the first flame resistant fabric layer to the second flame resistant fabric layer. The barrier layer is capable of withstanding temperature of 500° F. for at least 5 minutes without substantial change in the integrity of the flame resistant composite fabric.

Abstract: Airlaid paper wiping products are disclosed having improved wipe dry characteristics in conjunction with softness properties. The wiping products are formed from an airlaid nonwoven web containing pulp fibers. The pulp fibers, in one embodiment, may include low coarseness softwood fibers, such as low coarseness softwood fibers. A bonding material may be applied to one or both sides of the nonwoven web. The wiping product can be used as a paper towel, industrial wiper, and the like.

Abstract: Thermoformable multi-layer sheet products are manufactured by pressure laminating one or more molten polymeric films and superposed layers of glass cloth material such that the molten polymer impregnates the glass cloth layers.

Abstract: The present invention provides a multilayer laminated acaricidal fabric comprising:a) a bottom layer of metallized textile comprising:(i) a textile including fibers selected from the group consisting of natural fibers, synthetic cellulosic fibers, regenerated protein fibers, acrylic fibers, polyolefin fibers, polyurethane fibers, vinyl fibers, and blends thereof, and(ii) a plating including an acaricidally effective amount of ionic copper, the metallized textile characterized in that the plating is directly bonded to said fibers;b) an intermediate air and vapor permeable thermoplastic membrane having pores of up to 10 angstrom; andc) an outer fabric layer,the thermoplastic membrane serving as a bonding layer effecting the lamination between the bottom and the outer fabric layers, as well as a barrier preventing the passage therethrough of allergens from mites killed by the acaricidal fabric.
