The present disclosure describes a textile article for radio frequency (RF) absorption and attenuation. The textile includes a laminate that is formed via curing a wet laminate at room temperature for a cure time, the wet laminate comprising a resin substrate and a reinforced fiber matrix. The reinforced fiber matrix may include one of a bamboo fiber matrix, a cotton fiber matrix, a polyester fiber matrix, a nylon fiber matrix, or a wool fiber matrix. The resin substrate may include a first portion of iron oxide particles and a second portion of the elastic polymer solution, the first portion of iron oxide particles being based at least in part on an RF signal range that the textile article is configured to absorb and attenuate. For example, the iron oxide particles may include Fe.sub.3O.sub.4Fe, Fe.sub.3O.sub.4Ni, or Fe.sub.3O.sub.4, and/or so forth.

Provided are a multi-layered composite film that may be thermally-bonded to a fabric by using a hot melt adhesive that is dot-coated on the surface thereof, and a method of manufacturing the same. In particular, the present invention relates to: a thermally-bondable multi-layered composite film which can be used in the manufacture of outdoor clothing, has excellent breathability and waterproofing properties, and can simplify the process of manufacturing the outdoor clothing; and to a method for manufacturing same.

The present invention relates to a reactive hot melt adhesive composition and the use thereof. In particular, the present invention provides an adhesive having excellent washing resistance, especially having excellent resistance to antibacterial laundry cleansers. In addition, the adhesive has very short open time and good softness upon curing.

The breathable sheet of the present invention is comprised of a 4-methyl-1-pentene-based polymer or a resin composition containing the 4-methyl-1-pentene-based polymer as a main component. In addition, the breathable sheet of the present invention is preferably selected from the group consisting of a net, a mesh, a non-woven fabric, a woven fabric, and a perforated sheet.

The disclosed garments are designed to address the need for thin, lightweight garments that adequately conceal undergarments and imperfections when in use. Particularly, the garments can conceal the garment’s construction, skin imperfections such as cellulite or tattoos, or the color of undergarments despite having a light-colored outer appearance. Methods of making the garments and the concealing material are also disclosed herein.

Embodiments described herein relate generally to wearable electronic biosensing garments. In some embodiments, an apparatus comprises a biosensing garment and a plurality of electrical connectors that are mechanically fastened to the biosensing garment. A plurality of printed electrodes is disposed on the biosensing garment, each being electrically coupled, via a corresponding conductive pathway, to a corresponding one of the plurality of electrical connectors. The apparatus can further include an elongate member including a conductive member that is coupled to a plurality of elastic members in a curved pattern and that is configured to change from a first configuration to a second configuration as the elongate member stretches. The change from the first configuration to the second configuration can result in a change of inductance of the conductive member.

A fabric structure includes a first layer, which is breathable and adapted to be directed toward the body of the user, a second layer, which has preferential passages for sweat in the vapor phase leading outward from the first layer, a third layer, which is breathable and arranged opposite the first layer, the second layer being between the first layer and the third layer. The first layer includes fibers of heat-conducting material.

Oxidized polyacrylonitrile fiber (OPF) containing fabrics when used in the fire service, either in a NFPA 1971 or NFPA 1951 compliant protective garments, offer exceptional comfort and protection characteristics that ensure firefighters can safely perform their duties in structural fire, overhaul, urban search and rescue, and other various missions. OPF containing fabrics used in turnout gear outer shells and compliant with NFPA 1971, provide the best combination of protection as tested by the thermal protective performance test and comfort as tested by the total heat loss/resistance to evaporative heat transfer test.

Porous, binderless ceramic surface modification materials are described, and applications of use thereof. The ceramic surface material is in the form of an interconnected network of porous ceramic material on a substrate. The ceramic material may include a metal oxide, a metal hydroxide, and/or hydrates thereof, or a metal carbonate or metal phosphate, on a substrate surface. The substrate may be in the form of a metal or polymer particulate, powder, extrudate, or flakes.

The present invention relates to a modified polyvinyl butyral material, comprising a polyvinyl butyral composite material, a filler, an anti-hydrolysis agent, a first plasticizer, zinc stearate, calcium stearate, and a polymeric dispersant; wherein the polyvinyl butyral composite material is obtained by plasticizing a composition comprising polyvinyl butyral and a second plasticizer. The present invention also relates to a preparation method of the modified polyvinyl butyral material, a modified polyvinyl butyral product comprising at least one modified polyvinyl butyral layer prepared from a material comprising the modified polyvinyl butyral material, and the preparation method of the modified polyvinyl butyral product.
