A fireproof, translucent, flexible coated fabric composite materials for use in fire curtains. The composite material meets or exceeds regulatory requirements in terms of fire endurance and allows transmissivity of necessary amounts of light. The process of the present disclosure combines a silica fabric with a special refractory index controlled resin. This unique combination of materials can transform an opaque high temperature fabric into a translucent, and even transparent, composite which as the ability to resist high temperature, flame and smoke penetration that fills a needed gap in technology between visibility and fire resistance in the field of fire and smoke curtains used in civil construction.

The present invention relates to a fastening structure of a composite material structure, and more particularly, to a composite material stitching structure reinforced with z-direction fiber which improves strength in a lamination direction of a relatively weak composite material structure, for a composite material structure, in which composite materials are laminated and bonded.

A decorative material includes a base material, a first cover layer, and a second cover layer. The first cover layer is laminated on the base material and covers the base material. The first cover layer is made of opaque synthesis resin. The second cover layer is laminated on the first cover layer and covers the first cover layer. The second cover layer is made of chromatic and transparent synthesis resin. The first cover layer contains first coloring pigment and bright pigment. The first coloring pigment has no luster. The bright pigment has luster. The second cover layer contains second coloring pigment. The second coloring pigment has no luster.

A fiber structure, used as a reinforcement base material of a fiber-reinforced composite and including a multi-layered fabric including a warp layer and a weft layer, includes a first portion, and a second portion continuous with the first portion along one direction where the one direction refers to a direction in which warp yarns or weft yarns are adjacent to each other in the warp layer or the weft layer respectively. The warp yarns forming the second portion are thicker than those forming the first portion, and/or the weft yarns forming the second portion are thicker than those forming the first portion. When a pitch between the yarns refers to a distance between main axes of the yarns adjacent to each other in the one direction, the pitch between the yarns in the second portion is smaller than that in the first portion.

Textured fabrics have raised projections separated by depressed areas. The raised projections have heights of 0.3 to 8 mm above the level of the surrounding depressed areas. The raised projections have a pitch of 0.25 to 10 mm. The raised projections are locked into the fabric by the presence of a flexible, crosslinked polymer. The fabrics are water-resistant and breathable. The raised projections and the depressed areas create channels through which water can flow, maintaining the air permeability of the textured fabric during rainstorms. The textured fabric may be part of an outerwear rain jacket.

The fabric structure of the present invention includes a bottom layer, a middle layer disposed on the bottom layer, and a top layer disposed on the middle layer. A fabric layer is knitted by a plurality of yarns, wherein the outer surface of each yarn is at least covered by a first fusion part. A plurality of structure bodies disposed on the fabric layer, wherein the projection of any of the plurality of structure bodies on the fabric layer at least partially eclipses any of the grid cells of the fabric layer. Each of the plurality of the structure bodies includes a body and a second fusion part encapsulating the body. The first fusion part and the second fusion part fuse with each other to make the relative positions of the plurality of structure bodies and the plurality of yarns fixed.

Fabrication of ballistic resistant fibrous composites having improved ballistic resistance properties. More particularly, ballistic resistant fibrous composites having high interlaminar lap shear strength between component fiber plies or fiber layers, which correlates to low composite backface signature. The high lap shear strength, low backface signature composites are useful for the production of hard armor articles, including helmet armor.

A fiber structure including a multi-layered fabric includes a first fabric layer and a second fabric layer. The first fabric layer and the second fabric layer are stacked one over another in the thickness direction of the multi-layered fabric. A warp yarn in the first fabric layer is thicker than a warp yarn in the second fabric layer, and/or a weft yarn in the first fabric layer is thicker than a weft yarn in the second fabric layer, and a pitch in the first fabric layer is smaller than a pitch in the second fabric layer, where each of the pitches refers to a distance between any two main axes of yarns adjacent to each other in each of the warp layer and the weft layer.
