Provided herein are methods for preparing metal coated textile substrate by ultrasonic irradiation deposition processes and products thereof.

A textile sleeve for routing and protecting an elongate member has a wrappable wall including a textile layer having an inner surface and an opposite outer surface extending lengthwise between opposite ends and widthwise between opposite edges. The opposite edges are configured to be wrapped about a central longitudinal axis to bound a central cavity extending lengthwise along the central longitudinal axis between the opposite ends. The textile layer is formed of yarns interlaced with one another, wherein a least some of the yarns include metal wire(s). A silicone-based layer is disposed about the outer surface of the textile layer to provide enhanced heat-resistance, dielectric protection and impact resistance.

A fabric suitable as an alcohol repellent fabric is provided. The fabric includes a fibrous substrate including a first outermost surface and a second outermost surface, in which a digitally printed or sprayed alcohol repellent composition is located on at least a portion the first outermost surface, at least a portion of the second outermost surface, or both. The fabric also includes an antistatic composition located on at least a portion the first outermost surface, at least a portion of the second outermost surface, or both.

The method relates to the technical field of organic silicone copolymers, it is suitable for the field of fiber substrate treatment and is more suitable for the field of textile treatment.

Provided is a water- and oil-repellent agent composition that is capable of producing an article having a high water pressure resistance and a low water absorption rate. The water- and oil-repellent agent composition contains a fluorine-containing polymer having a unit based on a monomer (a), a unit based on a monomer (b1), a unit based on a monomer (b2), a unit based on a monomer (b3), and a unit based on a monomer (c), wherein relative to all the units that constitute the fluorine-containing polymer, the proportion of the unit based on the monomer (a) is from 70 to 80% by mass, the proportion of the combination of the unit based on the monomer (b1), the unit based on the monomer (b2) and the unit based on the monomer (b3) is from 12 to 28% by mass, and the proportion of the unit based on the monomer (c) is from 2 to 8% by mass. Monomer (a): a compound represented by (Z-Q).sub.nX. Monomer (b1): a monomer not having a polyfluoroalkyl group (R.sup.f group), but having an alkyl group of 22 carbon atoms. Monomer (b2): a monomer not having an R.sup.f group, but having an alkyl group of 20 carbon atoms. Monomer (b3): a monomer not having an R.sup.f group, but having an alkyl group of 18 carbon atoms. Monomer (c): a halogenated olefin.

Provided herein is a metal coated textile substrate prepared by an ultrasonic irradiation deposition process involving depositing a first plurality of metal nanoparticles on a textile substrate by a first ultrasonic irradiation deposition process thereby forming a metal seeded textile substrate; and depositing a second plurality of metal nanoparticles on the metal seeded textile substrate by a second ultrasonic irradiation deposition process thereby forming the metal coated textile substrate.

The invention relates to a method for the coating of a textile material, said method comprising the following steps: d) providing a coating composition comprising an aqueous solvent and an organosilicon precursor; e) impregnating the textile material with the coating composition by means of pad finishing; f) drying the impregnated textile material; characterized in that the coating composition contains no polycarboxylic acid or catalyst.

A nonwoven fabric has active antimicrobial and anti-viral agents coated onto it. Alternatively, an active antimicrobial/antiviral agent may be mixed into the barrier coating or fiber polymers themselves that make up the nonwoven material. A primary example is the treatment of an existing fabric having known permeability appropriate for an intended use. Intended uses for this nonwoven fabric include, but are not limited to, as a wearable garment, hair coverings, “booties,” temporary curtains, instrument wraps, surgical drapes, and blankets, each of which has active antimicrobial protection, thereby allowing the possibility of multiple uses of the fabric product.

In one aspect, a composition for treating fibers comprises an acidic aqueous or aqueous-based continuous phase and a liquid repellent phase comprising a dendrimer component and/or non-dendrimer alkyl urethane. The treatment composition, for example, can have pH of 2.5 to 6.5. In some embodiments, carboxylic acid is employed in the treatment composition for providing the acidic character of the aqueous or aqueous-based continuous phase. Moreover, the treatment composition can further comprise at least one of an acid stain resist component and soil release component. In some embodiments, fibers treated with compositions described herein exhibit ionic character.
