According to at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, a multilayer elastic film comprises a core layer, a first outer layer, and a second outer layer. The core layer comprises at least 75 wt % polyolefin elastomer such as an ethylene/alpha-olefin block copolymer or a propylene-based plastomer. The first outer layer and the second outer layer each comprise at least 75 wt % of an ethylene-based copolymer, wherein the ethylene-based copolymer is selected from the group consisting of: (I) greater than 50 wt % of ethylene, from 5 to 16 wt % of an α,β-ethylenically unsaturated C3-C8 carboxylic acid, and optionally, from 0.5 to 10 wt % of an alkyl acrylate; (II) from 86 to 95 wt % of ethylene, and from 5 to 14 wt % of an alkyl acrylate; and (III) combinations thereof.

A method of manufacturing a hydrocarbon absorbent structure comprises providing a lower sheet of material and dispensing a hydrocarbon absorbent polymer mixture thereon. The polymer mixture is then preheated so as to at least partially melt the polymer mixture. An upper sheet of material is then provided onto the at least partially melted polymer mixture on the lower sheet of material. The lower sheet of material, polymer mixture and upper sheet of material are then laminated together to form a hydrocarbon absorbent laminate structure.

The present invention relates to a dehumidification bag and a preparation method thereof. The dehumidification bag comprises a bag body including a first side sheet and a second side sheet, the side sheet comprises an air-permeability and/or a composite film, wherein at least all or part of at least one side sheet is an air-permeability film; a moisture-proof layer covers the outside of the air-permeability. The dehumidification bag provided by the present invention provides an air-permeability on the bag body, and adopts heat sealing between the outer surface of the air-permeability layer and the moisture-proof layer, so that the air-permeability and the moisture-proof layer are in close contact without moisture absorption, which effectively prevents damage during transportation and storage. In the process, the air-permeability is in contact with the air in the outer bag and the effect of the dehumidifier becomes poor or invalid; by setting the moisture-proof layer to be tearable, when the buyer uses the dehumidification bag, the moisture-proof layer can be torn off, which is convenient and fast.

The present invention is directed toward a method of making a composite structure including receiving a substantially planar nonwoven spunbond layer including a plurality of multicomponent fibers, thermally bonding the nonwoven spunbond layer at a first bond temperature, laying down a meltblown layer on top of the thermally bonded nonwoven spunbond layer to form an intermediate structure, and thermally bonding the intermediate structure at a second bond temperature to form a final composite structure. Composite structures including a spunbond layer and a meltblown layer, wherein the composite structure has a tensile strength of at least about 130 N/2.54 cm in both machine and cross directions, a tear strength of at least 3.0 N/2.54 cm, and an LRV of about 2.0 or higher are also provided herein.

An antimicrobial sheet may have a copper film formed on at least one side of a resin or polymer film. The copper film contains one or more copper oxides and a non-oxide copper. The content of the non-oxide copper in the copper film is less than the content of the copper that forms the copper oxide(s) and is 0.04 g/m.sup.2 or less.

Disclosed are flexible fluid reservoirs including a front sheet and a back sheet, each comprising a four-layer insulated wall. The four-layer insulated wall includes an interior layer and an exterior layer, and a metallic film layer and an insulation layer disposed between the interior layer and the exterior layer where the metallic film layer is oriented toward the exterior layer and the insulation layer is oriented toward the interior layer. One or more of the interior or exterior layers can be a metallocene modified polyethylene film. The metallic film layer can be aluminum coated polyethylene terephthalate resin. The insulation layer can be a foam layer comprising closed cell polyethylene resin. The four-layer insulated wall can resist or limit temperature changes of a fluid disposed within the reservoir for a period of time. The insulated fluid reservoirs can include closure mechanisms for sealing an upper opening of the reservoir.

A floor panel has a rectangular and oblong shape, and includes a substrate and a top layer provided on the substrate and forming a decorative side of the floor panel. The top layer is composed of a print provided on a carrier sheet and a transparent thermoplastic layer situated above the print. The substrate has a thickness from 2 to 10 millimeter and forms at least half of the thickness of the floor panel. The substrate is a polyurethane-based substrate and the transparent thermoplastic layer is polyurethane-based. The floor panel has a length of more than 1.1 meters and has a plurality of reinforcing layers situated outside the center line of the substrate. A reinforcing layer may be provided in combination with the substrate and the top layer.

There is provided a skin foam-in-place foamed article comprising a pad (15) and a bag-like outer material (20) covering the pad (15). The outer material (20) has a top layer (21) and a liner layer (22) made of a foamed resin. The liner layer (22) has a closed cell structure. A pad-side skin layer (27a) having a density higher than that of a bulk layer (26) is provided on the liner layer (22), on a side of the pad (15). A corona treatment is applied to the pad-side skin layer (27a).

A filter medium according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises: a first support having a plurality of pores; a nanofiber web comprising nanofibers disposed on upper and lower portions of the first support and forming a three-dimensional network structure, and a hydrophilic coating layer formed on at least a part of an outer surface of the nanofibers, wherein the hydrophilic coating layer is formed of a hydrophilic coating composition comprising a hydrophilic polymer compound having at least one functional group selected from a hydroxyl group and a carboxyl group and a crosslinking agent comprising at least one sulfone group; and a second support having a plurality of pores interposed between the first support and the nanofiber web.
