A method to manufacture a (recyclable) polyester textile product is disclosed which includes providing a first polyester sheet, stitching polyester yarns through the first sheet to form a pile on a first surface of the first sheet, the pile extending from this first surface, and to form loops of the yarns at an opposing second surface of the first sheet, applying a first quantity of a dispersion including an aqueous dispersion medium and polyester particles dispersed in the medium, to the second surface of the first sheet, thereafter removing the aqueous dispersion medium from the said quantity of the aqueous dispersion, heating the polyester particles to above a temperature at which the polyester of these particles softens, and subsequently cooling the polyester of the particles to below a temperature at which this polyester solidifies to therewith interconnect the loops and the first sheet with the solidified polyester.

Disclosed is a leather-dike sheet including a fiber base material and a colored resin layer laminated on the fiber base material, wherein the colored resin layer includes an intermediate layer and a skin layer laminated on the intermediate layer, wherein the skin layer is a layer containing polyurethane and a black pigment of 3 g/m.sup.2 or more, and the intermediate layer is a layer containing polyurethane and a black pigment, and in the L*a*b* color system, a leather-like sheet having a lightness value of L*30 is used.

An object of this invention is to provide a coated fabric for airbags that achieves sufficient heat resistance without relying on the amount or type of resin in a coating layer.

Provided is a coated fabric for airbags, comprising a coating layer disposed on at least one surface of a woven fabric directly or with one or more other layers interposed therebetween, the coating layer containing a thermally responsive foaming agent.

A glove according to the present invention includes a glove body configured to cover a hand of a wearer. The glove body has an outermost layer including a matrix resin and cellulose particles and constituting an outer surface of the glove. The outermost layer includes the cellulose particles in the range of more than 1 part to 9 parts or less by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the matrix resin. At least some of the cellulose particles are at least partially exposed from the outer surface.

Mass production of carpet tiles can be enabled by a method for manufacturing a carpet tile by applying an adhesive layer to a carpet tile base material containing pile, the method including: a first process of mixing 15 to 25 wt. % of urethane resin glue to an acrylic foamed resin to produce 100 wt. % of a mixture, thereby obtaining an adhesive; a second process of subjecting the adhesive to viscosity adjustment to adjust viscosity thereof to 3000 to 6000 cps; and a third process of applying the adhesive to the carpet tile base material by using a screen mesh having a mesh thickness of 20 m or more and less than 100 m and an opening area ratio of 40% to 60%.

A synthetic leather is lightweight and highly durable to abrasion, and a foamed resin layer can give the synthetic leather. The foamed resin layer includes a poly(vinyl chloride) resin and a thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer. The thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer preferably has a Shore A hardness of 50 to 80. The foamed resin layer preferably has an apparent density of 0.3 to 0.7 g/cm.sup.3. The foamed resin layer preferably has an average cell size of 50 to 250 m.

Provided are an artificial leather and a method of manufacturing the same. The artificial leather includes: a base fabric; a polyvinyl chloride film bonded to a surface of the base fabric; bonding layer formed on a surface of the film; a first foam layer formed on the bonding layer in a patterned shape; a first color layer formed on a surface of the foam layer and having the same pattern as the first foam layer; and a surface treatment layer formed on a surface of the first color layer with the same pattern as the first color layer or formed on a surface of the bonding layer without the first foam layer and the surface of the first color layer. to the artificial leather of the present invention may have a light weight and implement various three-dimensional patterns and colors as compared with a conventional PVC foam artificial leather.

A latex dipped article, particularly a fabric supported glove which is flexible and fatigue resistant, comprising a fabric liner, with a shape of a hand. The fabric liner is coated with a foam polymeric latex material which is then treated with an aqueous silicone or non-silicon based surface active agent to facilitate the formation of percolative surface structure through bursting of bubbles in the foam layer and stripped off the excess polymeric material. Then the stripped material is removed gently by exposing to a flowing fluid which further enhances the texture of the percolative coating that results an excellent grip in dry, wet and oil environments.

Aspects herein relate to apparel items and apparel systems that utilize applied or printed foam nodes to provide, among other things, stand-off between an apparel item and a wearer's skin surface. One or more of the foam nodes, or areas of the textile surrounding the foam nodes, may be perforated to provide a fluid communication path between an inner-facing surface and an outer-facing surface of the apparel item. The communication path may be used to facilitate air exchange between the external environment and the wearer's body and/or to provide an exit path for moisture vapor generated by the wearer.
