A composite material formed by combining a polyurethane material with an unclickable foam layer and a scrim layer through roll and flat form technology. The composite material is embossed to form pillowlike chambers or cells delineated by a network of emboss pattern lines formed by the bonding between these layers.

A textile heat-, fire- and/or smoke-proof material, comprising a flat, textile substrate which is coated with a polymer composition. The polymer composition containing a cross-linked silicone resin and metal pigments. The invention also relates to a method for producing a textile heat-, fire- and/or smoke-proof material, and to the use of a textile structure as a heat protector in a vehicle(s) and as fire and heat protection in a building(s).

A purpose of the present invention is to provide a sheet-shaped article and a manufacturing method therefor, said sheet-shaped article demonstrating both a supple texture and superior wear resistance. In order to achieve this purpose, a sheet-shaped article according to the present invention is a sheet-shaped article that includes, in a fibrous base material, a polymer elastic body with a hydrophilic group, said fibrous base material comprising extremely fine fibers with an average individual fiber fineness of 0.1 μm to 10 μm, wherein the sheet-shaped article has N-acylurea bonding or isourea bonding within the polymer elastic body, and a monovalent positive ion-including inorganic salt is present at a rate of 0.1 mass % to 5 mass % with regard to the mass of the polymer elastic body.

The present disclosure provides cover systems for covering components of a cabin interior of a vehicle, such as an automobile, a train car, a bus, a boat, or an aircraft, among others. For instance, the cover systems may cover one or more of a seat and a floor, among others, of the cabin interior. The fabric cover systems may absorb or partially absorb one or more of low-frequency sounds, such as low-frequency noise emitted by an engine, and high-frequency sounds, among others. The fabric cover systems may absorb or partially absorb odor molecules. The fabric covering systems may include multiple layers. For instance, one of the layers may include activated carbon fibers. The activated carbon fibers may absorb or partially absorb one or more of sounds, liquids, and odors, among others.

A steering wheel cover including a stretch fabric ring having a c-shaped cross-section forming a three-hundred-sixty angular degree circle, a first frictitious layer lining at least some of the inside of the stretch fabric ring excepting an angular fabric-only portion of the three-hundred-sixty degree circle, and a second frictitious layer covering some of the outside of the stretch fabric ring, but not covering the angular fabric-only portion.

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.

Inverted carpet designs can be provided having new features. Specifically, instead of providing loop side up (like almost all carpet), the reverse side is used as the wear side (with back stitches showing). New features, like providing design elements intermediate or on the primary backing and the back stitches can be provided with various embodiments.

A synthetic leather has excellent flame retardance and an article covered with the synthetic. The synthetic leather includes a fiber base material layer formed of a non-woven fabric sheet, wherein the non-woven fabric sheet includes at least one flameproof layer formed of a web including a non-melting fiber A having a high-temperature shrinkage rate of 3% or less and a thermal conductivity, conforming to ISO22007-3 (2008), of 0.060 W/m.Math.K or less and is formed by bonding the flameproof layer to a scrim layer including a carbonized heat-resistant fiber B having an LOI value, conforming to JIS K 7201-2 (2007), of 25 or more, and a resin layer is laminated on a surface of the scrim layer, and a covered article covered with the synthetic leather.

An artificial leather for a vehicle interior material includes: a fabric layer comprising a fiber layer; a skin layer disposed on the fabric layer and comprising a thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO); and a surface treatment layer disposed on the skin layer.
