Described are articles of wear including with a material with color changing properties. The material includes at least one elastic portion having an unstretched colored appearance and a stretched colored appearance. The material also includes at least one fixed portion having the stretched colored appearance regardless of a magnitude of an external force applied to the at least one fixed portion.

A multilayer fabric for selectively blocking or transmitting particular wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum, such solar radiation, and far infrared (FIR) radiation. The multilayer fabric may include a microporous water vapor permeable layer that selectively filters particular wavelengths depending on the size of its pores. In some embodiments, the multilayer fabric may include a nanostructured layer that selectively filters particular wavelengths.

A garment includes a first material layer including a first surface, a second material layer laminated to the first material layer, where the second material layer includes a second surface, and a laminate material disposed in a non-continuous manner between the first and second surfaces of the first and second material layers. An amount of laminate material disposed between the first and second material layers varies at different zones defined along the first surface of the first material layer. The laminate material can be applied via a dot lamination process so as to form an array of laminate dots that varies by one or more of spacing between laminate dots, dimensions of laminate dots and shapes of laminate dots at the different zones.

A laminate, containing two or more polyolefin resin layers, wherein at least one polyolefin resin layer (A) contains a cellulose fiber including a cellulose fiber having a fiber length of 0.3 mm or more dispersed in the layer; a content of the cellulose fiber in the polyolefin resin layer (A) is 1% by mass or more and less than 60% by mass; and wherein a polyolefin resin layer (B) different from the polyolefin resin layer (A) is laminated in contact with the polyolefin resin layer (A).

The present invention provides stretchable laminates with a flat appearance on the visible surface. The laminates comprise a textile layer, a functional layer, and a plurality of elastic fibers. The plurality of elastic fibers are in a substantially parallel arrangement and the internal distance between adjacent fibers does not exceed the maximum fiber spacing, which depends on laminate thickness in a stretched state. Also provided are garments and footwear comprising the stretchable laminates and methods of producing the stretchable laminates.

The present disclosure may be directed towards a substrate with an array disposed thereon. The substrate comprising a bonding array with a plurality of bonding locations. A low emissivity layer is deposited on at least one side of the substrate and covers at least some of the bonding locations. The low emissivity layer may be a metal layer which functions as a radiant barrier.

Methods and (articles of manufacture therefrom) including forming an elastic film from a polymer composition; tensioning the elastic film to a stretch ratio of between 2 and 6 in the MD; laminating the elastic film to an extensible facing to provide an elastomeric laminate having a CD hysteresis loss of 70% or less and an MD hysteresis loss of 50% or less.

Composite materials are described herein. An example composite material may comprise a shell fiber layer. The example composite material may comprise a membrane disposed adjacent the shell fiber layer.

A combination of nanoparticles applied onto a mask filtration system, exemplarily including 1%-10% graphene; 1%-10% titanium dioxide; 1%-10% zinc oxide; 1%-10% copper oxide; 1%-10% silicon dioxide; and balance solvent is provided.

A moisture-permeable waterproof fabric includes: a cloth (i), an adhesive layer (ii), and a surface skin layer (iii). The adhesive layer (ii) is formed from a moisture-curable polyurethane hot melt resin composition that contains a urethane prepolymer (C) having an isocyanate group, and the urethane prepolymer (C) is a reaction product of a polyisocyanate (B) and a polyol (A) containing a biomass-derived polyester polyol (a1). The surface skin layer (iii) is formed from a urethane resin composition that contains a urethane resin (R) containing a polyol (P) and a polyisocyanate (Q) as essential raw materials thereof, and the polyol (P) contains a polyol (P1) having an oxyethylene group and a specific polyester polyol (P2).
