A stitched double layer composite hose is provided. The stitched double layer composite hose includes a middle fabric pipe layer, an inner surface composite colloid material layer and an outer surface composite colloid material layer. The structure of the fabric pipe layer is weft-stitched double-layer unit structure. The double-layer unit structure includes an outer layer, an inner layer and stitched wefts. The inner layer includes inner layer warps and inner layer wefts; the outer layer includes outer layer warps and outer layer wefts. The stitched wefts interweave with the outer layer warps and the inner layer warps for conjoining the inner layer and the outer layer together. The fabric pipe layer weaved solves problems of the stitched double layer composite hose in the fabric pipe layer of traditional casing, with such advantages as high flexibility, less weaving point, less loss of yarn strength and less degree of torsion.

Described herein is a multilayer microporous film or membrane that may exhibit improved properties, including improved dielectric break down and strength, compared to prior monolayer or tri-layer microporous membranes of the same thickness. The preferred multilayer microporous membrane comprises microlayers and one or more lamination barriers. Also disclosed is a battery separator or battery comprising one or more of the multilayer microporous films or membranes. The inventive battery and battery separator is preferably safer and more robust than batteries and battery separators using prior monolayer and tri-layer microporous membranes. Also, described herein is a method for making the multilayer microporous separators, membranes or films described herein.

A method for the development of a thermally insulating sandwich-structured laminate, such as a sandwich-structured laminate of a housing of a climate chamber for the high temperature range, with an internal wall and an external wall, can include the method steps: providing the internal wall, adhering at least one high temperature stable insulation panel onto the internal wall, positioning the external wall with respect to the internal wall such that between the internal wall and the external wall the at least one high temperature stable insulation panel and a hollow volume are developed. The method can further include filling the hollow volume with a PUR foam for the formation of a second rigid foam layer connecting the at least one high temperature stable insulation panel and the external wall.

A building wall includes an exterior surface and an interior surface. The exterior surface faces the exterior of the building and the interior surface faces an interior room of the building. The wall has a total wall thermal resistance between the exterior surface and the interior surface. The wall includes a structural member positioned between the exterior surface and the interior surface, and the structural member is configured to bear at least a portion of a vertical load of the wall. An insulated composite wall panel is positioned between the structural member and the interior surface. The insulated composite wall panel includes a skin layer including glass fibers and a cellulose fiber insulation board attached with a resin to a first surface of the skin layer. The thermal resistance of the cellulose fiber insulation board comprises the greatest component of the total wall thermal resistance.

In accordance with at least one aspect of this disclosure, a composite structure can be formed of or including a plurality of composite strips. The plurality of composite strips include one or more filler strips which can have at least one filler edge having a filler edge geometry between a first surface and second surface, the second surface being opposite the first surface. The filler edge geometry can be configured to prevent formation of one or more gaps between one or more adjacent composite strips.

A composite which comprises a first layer of a fibre reinforced polymer and a second layer of a fibre reinforced polymer, between which is an intervening layer comprising an array of thermoplastic islands.

Porous, binderless ceramic surface modification materials are described, and applications of use thereof. The ceramic surface material is in the form of an interconnected network of porous ceramic material on a substrate. The ceramic material may include a metal oxide, a metal hydroxide, and/or hydrates thereof, or a metal carbonate or metal phosphate, on a substrate surface. The substrate may be in the form of a metal or polymer particulate, powder, extrudate, or flakes.

Stretch-release adhesive articles with tunable mechanical properties are provided. The articles include a stretchable carrier extending along a first direction and including a first major surface and a second major surface opposite the first major surface. At least one of the first and second major surfaces of the stretchable carrier is a stretch-releasable adhesive surface, and the stretchable carrier includes a pattern of slits distributed thereon and configured to deform upon a stretch on the stretchable carrier to elongate the stretchable carrier.

Sterilizable multilayer material (1), in particular for packaging at least one device for medical use, comprising a non-thermofusible sheet (2) sandwiched between two lower and upper thicknesses (3, 4) of thermofusible material of at least one thermofusible sheet (F), these thicknesses of thermofusible material being welded together across the non-thermofusible sheet.

This invention relates to a nonwoven material consisting of one or more layers of nonwoven webs of essentially continuous cellulosic filaments, characterized in that within each layer each of the three bonding mechanisms: a) hydrogen bonding, b) filament intermingling and c) merged filament bonding occur for bonding the essentially continuous cellulosic filaments. Further it relates to a process for the manufacture and to various uses of this material.
