Methods for production of automobile airbags with decreased air leakage and an increased duration of their inflated state, as well as airbags produced in accordance with these methods are provided.

Floor coverings, such as modular panels or tiles, for installation on interior surfaces include an upper wear layer and a backing layer, where the backing layer includes a filler that includes concentrated carbon. The floor coverings can sequester carbon such that the resulting product has a negative carbon footprint when subjected to a Life Cycle Assessment.

The invention relates to a knit fabric. There is a need for knit fabrics made that are comfortable to wear, have good washability and high softness. Good washability implies both dimensional stability of the fabric and maintaining positive surface aspects such as hairiness, pilling and fiber splice even after several washings. This object is solved according to the invention by a knitted fabric made from at least one yarn which consists of or contains lyocell filaments. The resulting fabric has a high wearing comfort and superior mechanical qualities.

A thermally fixable textile fabric, particularly useful as a fixable interlining, lining, and/or outer fabric in a textile industry, includes: a carrier material comprising a melt-blown non-woven fabric. The carrier material has flock fibers on one side and a hot-melt adhesive on a side facing away from the flock fibers.

The disclosure discloses a canvas flocking diamond picture, and relates to the technical field of canvas flocking diamond picture devices and making methods, solving the problem that the gray cloth of diamond canvas is shrunk after encountering water so that the diamond picture becomes uneven. The picture frame is internally provided with a protective film and a canvas; the upper end surface of the canvas is provided with a flash layer; an ink-receiving layer is arranged under the flash layer; an upper back cover layer is arranged under the ink-receiving layer; a cingico layer is arranged under the upper back cover layer; a lower back cover layer is arranged under the cingico layer; a flocking layer is arranged under the lower back cover layer; an adhesive layer is arranged between the lower back cover layer and the flocking layer.

Floor coverings, such as modular panels or tiles, for installation on interior surfaces include an upper wear layer and a backing layer, where the backing layer includes a filler that includes concentrated carbon. The floor coverings can sequester carbon such that the resulting product has a negative carbon footprint when subjected to a Life Cycle Assessment.

Disclosed is a nubuck-finished leather-like sheet including a non-woven fabric that is an entangled body of ultrafine filaments, wherein the non-woven fabric includes a napped surface having napped fibers formed thereon, and the napped fibers are fixed to an acrylic resin on the napped surface while being laid down. Preferably, the acrylic resin is present so as to retain voids in the napped surface, while being made malleable.

A napped artificial leather including a non-woven fabric including ultrafine fibers and a polyurethane, the napped artificial leather including a napped surface formed by napping the ultrafine fibers on a surface thereof, wherein the napped surface has, after a Martindale abrasion test in accordance with JIS L 1096 (6.17.5E method, Martindale method) under a pressing load of 12 kPa and 50000 times of abrasions, a ratio of the polyurethane observed by a surface observation using an electron microscope in a portion that has been subjected to the Martindale abrasion test, of 4.0% or less.

A surface treatment agent which is an aqueous emulsion containing: (a) a fluorine-free polymer including: (i) repeating units derived from a long-chain (meth)acrylate ester monomer represented by the formula: CH.sub.2CA.sup.11-C(O)O-A.sup.12, wherein A.sup.11 is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, and A.sup.12 is a linear or branched aliphatic hydrocarbon group having 10-30 carbon atoms; (b) a surface active agent including both of a nonionic surface active agent and an anionic surface active agent, wherein the amount of the anionic surface active agent is at least 22% by weight, based on the total of the nonionic surface active agent and the anionic surface active agent; and (c) a liquid medium comprising water.

Embodiments of fiber surface finish enhanced flocked surface impact force absorbing structure include a plurality of flock fibers disposed on a substrate, a surface coating applied to the plurality of flock fibers, and in another embodiment, a divider fabric bonded to the tops of flock fibers.
