Provided is a double-faced PSA sheet having excellent detergent resistance. The PSA sheet according to this invention comprises a PSA layer and is adhesive on both faces. The PSA sheet shows a push-peel strength of 30 N/cm.sup.2 or greater after a detergent immersion test involving immersion in a standard detergent at 40° C. for 24 hours. It also has an adhesive strength retention rate of 50% or higher, determined as the ratio of push-peel strength P2 after the detergent immersion test to push-peel strength P1 before the detergent immersion test.

A concrete curing system and method for maintaining an appropriate amount of moisture along and within fresh concrete for a desired amount of time necessary to ensure the cured concrete obtains its desired properties, that can be used for various environmental conditions and for a variety of structures, that is relatively inexpensive, and provides product and performance consistency and is non-staining.

A smokeless tobacco product includes smokeless tobacco and structural fibers. The structural fibers forming a network in which the smokeless tobacco is entangled. The structural fibers have a composition different from the smokeless tobacco. The tobacco-entangled fabric can have an overall oven volatiles content of at least 10 weight percent. In some embodiments, the structural fibers form a nonwoven network. In some embodiments, fibrous structures of the smokeless tobacco are entangled with the structural fibers.

Provided is a breathable waterproof fabric including: a fabric substrate; a surface modified layer formed on a bonding surface of the fabric substrate; a dot adhesive member transferred to the surface modified layer; and a membrane bonded to the fabric substrate by the dot adhesive member.

A heat insulation material includes a laminate obtained by stacking fiber layers that include heat-resistant fibers, the fiber layers being bound with a thermosetting resin, wherein the laminate does not include a thermoplastic resin that has a heat-resistant temperature lower than that of the thermosetting resin, or includes only a small amount of a thermoplastic resin that has a heat-resistant temperature lower than that of the thermosetting resin.

Disclosed herein are textured nonwoven webs suitable for use in disposable absorbent articles. The textured nonwoven webs have a generally planar first region and a plurality of integrally formed discrete second regions. The textured nonwoven webs also have at least one composition disposed on at least one of the first region or the plurality of discrete second regions.

A three-dimensional substrate has a first surface, a second surface, land areas and comprises three-dimensional protrusions extending outward from the second surface of the three-dimensional substrate. The three-dimensional protrusions are surrounded by the land areas. The three-dimensional substrate is a laminate comprising at least two layers in a face to face relationship. The second layer comprise a tissue layer facing outward from the second surface of the three-dimensional substrate. The tissue layer comprises at least 80% pulp fibers by weight of the tissue layer.

A cation-exchange membrane including: layer (I) containing repeating units (A) each represented by formula (1) and repeating units (S) each containing a sulfonic acid-type ion-exchange group, wherein the mass proportion of repeating units (A) based on the total mass proportion of repeating units (A) and repeating units (S) being 100% by mass is 53% by mass or more and 70% by mass or less; and layer (II) containing a fluorine-containing polymer containing a carboxylic acid-type ion-exchange group and disposed on layer (I), wherein the water content of layer (I) is 26% or more and 35% or less:

CF.sub.2—CF.sub.2  (1)

Provided are a cosmetic sheet including: a cosmetic layer configured in the form of a nanofiber web and melted by moisture by electrospinning a water-soluble polymer material and a functional material together; and a moisture retaining layer separably attached to the cosmetic layer and retaining the moisture of the cosmetic layer when wearing the cosmetic layer on the face and performing outdoor activities, to thus prevent moisture from drying out during the time the cosmetic layer is absorbed into the skin, when wearing the cosmetic sheet on the face and taking outdoor activities.

The soft boot and liner includes moisture transfer system that includes an inner fabric layer carefully selected from technically advanced fabrics. A series of layers are provided outside the inner liner including foam material layers, spacer fabrics and breathable membranes, in various orders. Encapsulation technology and waterproofing are used as well. The outer fabric layer is also capable of working with the other layers to promote the transfer of moisture. Frothed foams and flocking with fibers are further characteristics of the present invention. The moisture transfer system is incorporated into a soft boot or skate or as a removable liner for a shell boot. Numerous other modifications and applications are disclosed.
