A buffer material is a material including a buffer sheet that contains cellulose fibers and a binding material binding the cellulose fibers and has a sheet shape, and a nonwoven fabric sheet that is provided on at least one surface side of the buffer sheet and is formed of nonwoven fabric, in which the cellulose fibers are aligned in a direction intersecting a thickness direction of the buffer sheet, and the alignment direction of the cellulose fibers is along a direction in which an external force is received.

A biodegradable cellulose fiber-based substrate, at least one side of which is coated with a release coating including: a) at least one water-soluble polymer (WSP) containing hydroxyl groups, and b) at least one lactone substituted with at least one linear or branched and/or cyclic C.sub.8-C.sub.30 hydrocarbon chain which may contain heteroatoms. The biodegradable substrate is certified biodegradable in accordance with EN 13432. A method of production thereof is also disclosed.

A cover for a cushion includes a first panel, a second panel, and a primary receptacle defined between the first panel and the second panel. The primary receptacle may receive a primary cushioning element, such as a pillow, a pillow insert, or a fill material. At least one of the first panel and the second panel includes a secondary cushioning element. The secondary cushioning element may be defined from a compressible, resilient elastomeric material that defines a plurality of thin interconnected walls that in turn define an array of open cells or columns. Each cell or column may have a hexagonal shape, imparting the array of open cells or columns with a honeycomb appearance. Methods for assembling a primary cushioning element with such a cover are also disclosed.

A buffer material is a material including a buffer sheet that contains cellulose fibers and a binding material binding the cellulose fibers and has a sheet shape, and a nonwoven fabric sheet that is provided on at least one surface side of the buffer sheet and is formed of nonwoven fabric. Further, a thickness T2 of the nonwoven fabric sheet is 5% or greater and 90% or less of a thickness Tl of the buffer sheet. Further, a basis weight of fibers in the nonwoven fabric sheet is less than a basis weight of the cellulose fibers in the buffer sheet.

A laminate includes a core structure having a first surface and a second surface, the core structure including an elastic core layer and a plastic core layer, wherein the elastic core layer is one of a film, a plurality of strands, and a plurality of strips, and wherein the plastic core layer is one of a film layer, a plurality of strands, and a plurality of strips, the plastic core structure reinforcing the core layer in the machine direction, and a nonwoven first facing layer affixed to the first surface.

Hoses include a tube, a reinforcement layer disposed outwardly from the tube, and a cover layer disposed outwardly from the reinforcement layer. The cover layer may be based on a first elastomeric blend of a first chlorinated polyethylene and chlorosulphonated polyethylene, a first flame-resistant composition, and a peroxide/sulfur curing system. The tube may be based upon a second elastomeric blend of a second chlorinated polyethylene and ethylene vinyl acetate rubber, a second flame-resistant composition, and a peroxide curing system. The first flame-resistant package and the second flame-resistant package includes one or more ingredients selected from the group consisting of antimony oxide, zinc molybdate/magnesium silicate complex, magnesium aluminum hydroxy carbonate, and aluminum trihydroxide. In some aspects, the hoses meet the testing performance requirements of EN 45545-2, HL2/R22 category standard, and EN854 type 2TE standard.

A biaxially stretchable laminated fabric composite material includes a four-way stretchable fabric and a barrier film. The barrier film and the fabric are selectively attached at a plurality of individual bond points. When the fabric is in an unstretched state, random folds are formed in the unbonded regions of the barrier film. When the fabric is in a stretched state, the random folds are partially or fully flattened to allow the biaxially stretchable laminated fabric composite material to biaxially stretch.

Provided are certain cellulose ester compositions which serve as improved anti-tack additives for various thermoplastic polymers, in applications such as woven and non-woven fibers, laminates including the composition, fabrics including the composition, apparel and garments, textiles including the composition, etc.

The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a multilayer film comprising highly refined cellulose fibers, the method comprising the steps of: a) forming a first wet web by applying a first pulp suspension comprising highly refined cellulose fibers on a first wire; b) partially dewatering the first wet web to obtain a first partially dewatered web; c) forming a second wet web y applying a foamed second pulp suspension comprising highly refined cellulose fibers and a foaming agent on a second wire; d) partially dewatering the foamed second wet web to obtain a second partially dewatered web; e) joining the first and second partially dewatered web to obtain a multilayer web; and f) further dewatering, and optionally drying, the multilayer web to obtain a multilayer film comprising highly refined cellulose fibers.

A multilayered roofing underlayment including: a) a first layer of nonwoven material; b) a second layer of lamination coating adjacent to said first layer; c) a third layer of aluminum foil adjacent to said second layer; d) a fourth layer of lamination coating adjacent to said third layer; e) a fifth layer of nonwoven material adjacent to said fourth layer; f) a sixth layer of backside coating adjacent to said fifth layer; and g) where a product weight of said roofing underlayment is from 90 to 270 grams per square meter.
