Articles, for example multi-ply fibrous structure-containing articles such as multi-ply sanitary tissue products, containing two or more fibrous structure plies, and more particularly to multi-ply articles containing two or more fibrous structure plies having a plurality of fibrous elements wherein the articles exhibit improved bulk and absorbent properties compared to known articles and methods for making same, are provided.

Web material structuring belts that impart structure to a web material during a web material structuring operation and/or structured web material forming operation, method for making same and methods for using same to make structured web materials, for example structured fibrous structures, such as structured sanitary tissue products such as structured toilet tissue, structured paper towels and structured facial tissue are provided.

An engineered wood based siding, cladding or panel with a microstrand interface layer (MIL) applied to the top of the main strand matrix layers to minimize telegraphing, add rigidity and strength, and provide an improved surface appearance. The MIL comprises microstrands applied to the surface of the strand matrix or mat during production, prior to deposition of a fines layer. The MIL prevents the loss of fines into the strand matrix, and helps prevent or eliminate strand telegraphing.

A high-adsorption-performance nanofiber filter medium includes a support material and a composite nanofiber filtration layer that includes multiple nanometer composite nanofiber layers deposited and stacked on the support material. The nanometer composite nanofiber layer includes first, second, and third nano-powder composite nanofibers, which are uniformly mixed by means of an airflow or are sequentially laminated to form the nanometer composite nanofiber layer. The nanometer composite nanofiber layer formed through sequential lamination includes first, second, and third nanofiber layers. The first nanofiber layer includes multiple first nano-powder composite nanofibers. The second nanofiber layer is stacked on the first nanofiber layer and includes multiple second nano-powder composite nanofibers. The third nanofiber layer is stacked on the second nanofiber layer and includes multiple third nano-powder composite nanofibers. The composite nanofiber filtration layer is formed of multiple nanometer composite nanofiber layers, so that the high-adsorption-performance nanofiber air filter medium shows improved performance.

A total heat exchange element includes partitions disposed in a state of being opposed to each other, and a spacer portion keeping a space between the partitions and forming a passage between the partitions. The spacer portion has a laminate structure in which nonwoven fabric base layers including a nonwoven fabric base material are laminated on both sides of a paper layer. A first nonwoven fabric base layer that is the nonwoven fabric base layer of the spacer portion laminated on one side of the paper layer is joined to the partition opposed to the first nonwoven fabric base layer, and a second nonwoven fabric base layer that is the nonwoven fabric base layer of the spacer portion laminated on another side thereof is joined to the partition opposed to the second nonwoven fabric base layer. The element has the above-mentioned configuration and so can improve the humidity exchange efficiency.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a laminate being excellent in chemical resistance, wear resistance, vibration absorption properties and flame resistance, and having high mechanical strength; and a method for its production. A laminate 1 comprises a fiber-reinforced resin layer 20 which comprises a reinforcing fiber base material and a resin component containing at least 50 vol % of a specific fluororesin, wherein the ratio of the reinforcing fiber base material to the total volume of the reinforcing fiber base material and the resin component is from 0.30 to 0.70, and a specific substrate 10, wherein at least one outermost layer is the fiber-reinforced resin layer 20, and the ratio of the total thickness of the fiber-reinforced resin layer 20 to the total thickness of the substrate 10 is from 1/99 to 30/70.

An insulation product includes a first layer of a fibrous insulating material, a second layer of a facing material attached to a first surface of the first layer, and a third layer of a slip sheet material and/or a lubricant attached to a second surface of the first layer. The first surface and the second surface are on opposite sides of the first layer and are parallel to one another. For certain applications, the insulation product may include a layer of a slip sheet material and/or lubricant attached to the first surface of the first layer instead of the second layer of a facing material.
