A fabric or belt for a papermaking machine including a first layer that defines a web contacting surface and a second layer that supports the first layer. The first layer is made of extruded polymer and includes a plurality of first elements aligned in a first direction, a plurality of second elements aligned in a second direction and extending over the plurality of first elements, and a plurality of open portions defined by the plurality of first and second elements. The second layer is made of woven fabric. The first layer is bonded to the second layer so that the first layer extends only partially through the second layer and an interface formed between the first and second layers includes bonded and unbonded portions and airflow channels that extend in a plane parallel to the first and second layers.

Provided is a fluororesin tube having excellent properties such as heat resistance, weather resistance, chemical resistance, peeling properties, and low dielectric properties that are specific to a fluororesin and also having an inner surface that has high adhesiveness with respect to different materials, particularly, silicone rubber.

A fluororesin tube is provided, in which an inner surface of the tube is subjected to plasma treatment by introducing vinylalkoxysilane into a plasma excitation gas, and an arithmetic average roughness Ra and an average length RSm of a roughness curve element with respect to the inner surface of the tube which is subjected to the plasma treatment satisfy Ra<0.08 μm and RSm<25 μm.

Articles, such as garments, including films comprising dried aqueous polyurethane dispersions are disclosed, whereby the garment has an altered stress which is exhibited during wear of the garment. The film may be bonded to the fabric of the article to provide a fabric or film laminate.

There is provided a method of treating textile fibres including: a) providing a polymeric precursor including a diallyl amide cationic compound and a corresponding counter ion; b) either (i) coating the textile fibres with the polymeric precursor and polymerising the polymeric precursor to form a polymeric coating, or (ii) polymerising the polymeric precursor and contacting the polymerised polymeric precursor with the textile fibres to form a polymeric coating on the textile fibres. There is also provided a composite structure including a polymeric coating formed from the polymeric precursors of the present invention.
