The present invention provides a sheet structure comprising a carrier layer and a foamed cover layer which contains polyvinyl chloride, lignocellulosic based components and hollow microspheres, and a method for producing the sheet structure. The sheet structure can be used as an artificial leather, e.g. for flexible automotive interiors.

A process of making a synthetic leather includes (i) first, contacting a textile with an aqueous solution containing a cationic hydroxyethylcellulose polymer to form a modified textile component; (ii) subsequently, impregnating the modified textile component with an aqueous polyurethane dispersion externally stabilized with an anionic surfactant; and (iii) precipitating the polyurethane in the modified textile component. And a synthetic leather formed by the process.

Disclosed is a method for providing a textile material(s) resistant to the deposition of oil- and grease-based air pollutants by treating the textile material(s) with an oil/grease resistant composition. The oil/grease resistant composition comprises a modified polysaccharide(s), particularly, polysaccharides modified with anionic groups, and one or more adjuvant materials.
