This invention relates to a thermally insulating substrate product comprising: a substrate having at least one layer and comprising metallic particles having an average particle size and density selected to block or reflect infrared radiation and aerogel particles having an average pore size and density selected to control conducted and convected thermal energy. The thermally insulating substrate can made as textile and/or film coatings that are light and thin and adapts to external environment conditions for better camouflage as well as improved heat insulation for energy conservation and thermal regulation.

A fiber composite material includes: a heat resistant layer and a liquid guiding layer that are stacked. A material of the heat resistant layer includes a heat resistant fiber and a hydrophilic fiber. A material of the liquid guiding layer includes a hydrophilic fiber. The heat resistant fiber includes a polyimide fiber. The hydrophilic fiber includes a Tencel fiber.

Sound-absorbing material includes a monolithic main layer which is made of non-woven fiber fabric and has two opposite faces delimiting the thickness of the monolithic main layer. The monolithic main layer has a density gradient in the direction of its thickness. The monolithic main layer has a gradient in the fiber count in the direction of its thickness which decreases, passing from a first face to a second face of the monolithic main layer. The density gradient has an inverse trend with respect to the gradient in fiber count.

The present invention provides a laminated nonwoven fabric achieving both handling properties during manufacturing and use and adherence to a skin surface at a high level particularly when used for a face mask. The laminated nonwoven fabric includes a nonwoven fabric layer (A) and a nonwoven fabric layer (B). The nonwoven fabric layer (A) is formed from a fiber A having a single fiber diameter of 50 nm or more and 800 nm or less, and the nonwoven fabric layer (B) is formed from a fiber B having a single fiber diameter of 3 m or more and 30 m or less. The nonwoven fabric layer (B) includes 15 to 40% by mass of a fiber B1 to all of the fibers constituting the nonwoven fabric layer (B), the fiber having tensile strength of 2.0 cN/dtex or less as measured based on JIS L 1015: 2010 8.7.2. The nonwoven fabric layer (B) Includes a fiber B2 having tensile strength exceeding 2.0 cN/dtex as measured based on JIS L 1015: 2010 8.7.2. The nonwoven fabric layer (A) is disposed as an outermost layer of at least one surface.

Disclosed is a two layered belt useful in the manufacture of tissue products comprising a first woven layer and a second nonwoven layer joined together in a laminated arrangement. The woven layer typically forms the machine contacting layer of the belt and is woven from a highly abrasion resistant material, while the nonwoven layer contacts the nascent tissue web. The woven layer may be provided with valleys and ridges that the nascent web is molded into, while the nonwoven layer may be provided with elements that impart a visually aesthetic pattern to the web. In this manner the belt may be useful in the production of products having desirable physical properties resulting from molding into the woven fabric while also being visually pleasing to the user.

A homogeneous composite substrate includes a woven cloth and at least one fiber membrane. The woven cloth includes a plurality of first fibers. The fiber membrane is disposed on at least one surface of the woven cloth, and the fiber membrane includes a plurality of second fibers, in which a material of the first fibers and a material of the second fibers are the same, a fiber diameter of each first fiber is larger than or equal to 20 ?m and smaller than or equal to 130 ?m, and a fiber diameter of each second fiber is larger than or equal to 3 ?m and smaller than or equal to 10 ?m.

The reinforcing material comprises a unidirectional reinforcing web (2) formed of one or a plurality of carbon yarns (3), associated on at least one of its faces, preferably on each of its faces, with a porous polymeric layer (4, 5), the polymeric portion of the reinforcing material representing from 0.5% to 10% of its total weight and preferably from 2% to 6% of its total weight, characterized in that said carbon yarns (3) are individually twisted having a twist from 3 turns/m to 15 turns/m, preferably from 6 turns/m to 12 turns/m, and comprise at least one S-twist yarn and at least one Z-twist yarn, from a selection according to claim 1.
