The vehicle floor carpet of the present invention includes a skin layer, a thermoplastic resin layer, and a base layer in this order, the thermoplastic resin layer has a plurality of open hole parts penetrating through the thermoplastic resin layer in the thickness direction, and the open hole parts are arranged on recesses in a surface of the skin layer or recesses in a surface of the base layer at the side of the thermoplastic resin layer.

A warp-knit structure that is particularly suited to provide an acceptable coefficient of friction (COF) for a vehicle accessory mat or vehicle cargo management system when used with non-woven or tufted type flooring. The floor mat or cargo management system is therefore one that is adapted for repeated engagement and disengagement with both non-woven and tufted flooring present in a vehicle.

Provided is a flame-retardant coating agent for vehicle seats that contains (A) a nitrogen-containing compound, and (C) an aqueous thermoplastic resin. Also provided is a flame-retardant vehicle seat material that does not use a halogen compound or an antimony compound, that exhibits sufficient flame retardancy, and that suppresses the occurrence of marks from hot water.

A monofilament of a polyethylene terephthalate bulked continuous filament (BCF) has elongation of 5% or more at an initial stress of 1.0 g/d, elongation of 25 to 35% at a medium-term stress of 3.0 g/d, tensile strength of .0 to 6.0g/d, and elongation of 40 to 60%.

Provided is a flame-retardant coating agent for vehicle seats that contains (A) a nitrogen-containing compound, and (C) an aqueous thermoplastic resin. Also provided is a flame-retardant vehicle seat material that does not use a halogen compound or an antimony compound, that exhibits sufficient flame retardancy, and that suppresses the occurrence of marks from hot water.

The present invention relates to artificial leather having a water-based polyurethane foam layer including a fabric layer 110; a binder layer 111 laminated on the upper portion of the fabric layer 110; a water-based polyurethane foam layer 120 laminated on the upper portion of the fabric layer 110; a skin layer 130 laminated on the upper portion of the water-based polyurethane foam layer 120; and a surface treatment layer 140 laminated on the upper portion of the skin layer 130, wherein open cells are formed in the water-based polyurethane foam layer 120 through mechanical foaming. According to the present invention, a water-based polyurethane foam layer having open cells formed through mechanical foaming is applied to artificial leather for automobile seats.

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.

Disclosed is a floor covering insulation for a motor vehicle with a multi-layer, preferably flocked, fibre insulation which, by a soft/smooth coupling layer to the wear surface, realises a sound insulation floor covering with improved acoustic and mechanical-physical properties, with a simultaneous reduction in weight if possible. Also disclosed is a process for manufacturing the sound insulation.

An automobile instrument panel surface material includes a microfiber having an average single fiber diameter of 0.3 to 7 m; and polyurethane, the automobile instrument panel surface material having nap formed of the microfiber, the automobile instrument panel surface material having, of light fastnesses measured according to a light fastness measurement method of JIS L 0843:2006 under conditions of a xenon arc intensity of 110 MJ/m2, a fading by gray scale evaluation of grade 3.5 or higher, the automobile instrument panel surface material having a glass haze of 10.0% or less as measured according to a glass haze evaluation method of ISO 6452:2007 under conditions of a heating temperature of 100 C. and a heating time of 20 hours.

A molded lightweight layered floor liner construction includes a top layer with an exposed carpeted hobnail surface, a middle layer including a moldable thermoplastic coating on the back of the top layer, and a bottom layer having a downwardly exposed surface characterized by singed non-woven fabric. The floor liner is lightweight, molded by known molding techniques, impervious to water, liquids, mud, and debris, and resistant to sliding and bunching up on the factory carpeted surfaces of a vehicle. The exposed hobnail surface interacts very well with mechanical fastening systems such as the hooks of a hook-and-loop fastener system. Thus, accessories such as cargo organizers can be placed on the exposed surface of the floor liner, where they stick firmly until pulled away, removed, and repositioned.
