The present invention relates to meltblown non-woven fabric, multi-layered spunbonded non-woven fabric comprising same, and a method for manufacturing same, and to: meltblown non-woven fabric which uses recycled polyester flakes, thus being environmentally friendly, and is a material used in a sound absorbing material for automobiles due to the excellent rigidity, sound absorption capability and compressive modulus thereof, and thus can be used in automobile interior materials that require rigidity, sound absorption capability, and compressive modulus, such as wheel guards and trunk trims of automobiles; multi-layered spunbonded non-woven fabric comprising same; and a method for manufacturing same.

A composite geosynthetic fabric includes a woven fabric and a nonwoven fabric adhered to the woven fabric. The nonwoven fabric includes a plurality of fibers, with each fiber of the plurality of fibers of the nonwoven fabric being about 2 to about 18 denier per filament. A portion of the fibers of the nonwoven fabric extend through the woven fabric and is fused together on a face of the woven fabric that is opposite a nonwoven face side of the woven fabric.

An acoustic and thermal shield for a motor vehicle, including a porous shell based on fibers bound together by a binding agent and a spring layer based on elastically compressible polyurethane foam, the porosity of the shell being such that the foam is able to create a sealed skin on the underside of the shell, which fibers consist of two types: thick reinforcing fibers in an amount of 25 to 40% by weight of the shell and fine fibers in an amount of 15 to 35% by weight of the shell, the bonding agent being formed by fusible bonding fibers in an amount of 35 to 50% by weight of the shell, so that substantially no foam penetrates the thickness of the shell.

A shear band for a tire includes an annular first, radially outer fabric layer extending circumferentially around the tire; and an annular second, radially inner fabric layer extending circumferentially around the tire. The shear band is formed from a single shear band strip helically wound circumferentially and axially with a first edge of the shear band strip. The first edge of the shear band strip has a first extension flap for engaging an opposite second edge of the shear band strip. The first extension flap is continuously secured to the opposite second edge linearly along the opposite second edge of the shear band strip.

A mat/mesh laminate for flexible floor covering slabs is formed by a glass fiber mat, bonded by a first organic polymer, having an air permeability, measured in accordance with standard NF EN ISO 9237 at a pressure of 200 Pa, of between 6000 and 12,000 l/m.sup.2.Math.s, and by a glass yarn mesh having a titer of between 30 and 150 tex that is coated with a second organic polymer.

The present disclosure relates to a process for manufacturing composite articles. and composite articles made thereby. The processes described herein make use of curable compositions containing NCF fabrics having certain types of stitching yarns. The curable compositions and composite articles made according to the present disclosure are particularly suited to the production of composite parts for use in many applications, such as in aviation, automotive, and marine applications.

An embodiment dash isolation pad includes a 3D vertical nonwoven fabric layer having a structure in which wave-type short fibers are vertically arranged, a sound absorption layer on one side or both sides of the 3D vertical nonwoven fabric layer, and an olefin-based powder layer between the 3D vertical nonwoven fabric layer and the sound absorption layer.

A fibrous insulation product exhibits improved resistance to compressive forces and resiliency in quickly recovering from compression.

The present invention relates to a method of draining water comprising the steps of: providing a water drainage device, wherein the water drainage device comprises man-made vitreous fibres (MMVF) bonded with a cured aqueous binder composition free of phenol and formaldehyde; positioning the water drainage device in contact with the ground, wherein the water drainage device absorbs water and releases water to a recipient

wherein the aqueous binder composition prior to curing comprises; a component (i) in form of one or more lignosulfonate lignins having a carboxylic acid group content of 0.03 to 1.4 mmol/g, based on the dry weight of the lignosulfonate lignins, a component (ii) in form of one or more cross-linkers.

The invention relates to a fa?ade system for a building, in particular an External Thermal Insulation Composite System (ETICS), comprising a thermal and/or acoustic insulation, consisting of at least one insulation element being a bonded mineral fibre product made of mineral fibres, preferably stone wool fibres, and a cured aqueous binder composition free of phenol and formaldehyde, wherein the insulation element is fixed to an outer surface of the building by mechanical fastening elements and/or an adhesive, covered with a rendering, and whereby the aqueous binder composition prior to curing comprises a component (i) in form of one or more lignosulfonate lignins having a carboxylic acid group content of 0.03 to 2.0 mmol/g, based on the dry weight of the lignosulfonate lignins and a component (ii) in form of one or more cross-linkers, and wherein the insulation element has a bulk density between 70 kg/m.sup.3 and 150 kg/m.sup.3.
