The method for producing a skin material is a method for producing a skin material having a concave part formed on the front surface side, comprising heat-pressing a raw material between an embossing die and an elastic sheet to form the concave part and, at the same time, forming a convex part on a bottom surface of the concave part.

A multilayered cushion pad and a method for manufacturing the same are provided. The multilayered cushion pad includes a first woven fabric, a second woven fabric, and a first buffering layer. The first buffering layer is disposed between the first woven fabric and the second woven fabric. A material of the first woven fabric includes a poly-p-phenylene benzobisoxazole fiber, and a material of the second woven fabric is selected from the group consisting of: a poly-p-phenylene benzobisoxazole fiber, a polyphenylene sulfide fiber, a polybenzimidazole fiber, a ceramic fiber, a basalt fiber, an alkaline metal fiber, a silicic acid fiber, and a combination thereof. A material of the first buffering layer is selected from the group consisting of: a silicone rubber resin, a fluororubber resin, a polyvinylidene difluoride resin, a polyetheretherketone resin, a polyimide resin, a polyamide-imide resin, and a combination thereof.

A method of manufacturing a hydrocarbon absorbent structure comprises providing a lower sheet of material and dispensing a hydrocarbon absorbent polymer mixture thereon. The polymer mixture is then preheated so as to at least partially melt the polymer mixture. An upper sheet of material is then provided onto the at least partially melted polymer mixture on the lower sheet of material. The lower sheet of material, polymer mixture and upper sheet of material are then laminated together to form a hydrocarbon absorbent laminate structure.
