Certain embodiments are described herein that are directed to articles comprising textured coatings that can enhance adhesion of a surface coating. In some examples, the textured coating comprises at least one metal or metallic compound present in a plurality of individual microstructures which can be positioned in different planes in different heights with respect to a reference zero point in the textured coating. In some configurations, a surface coating comprising a repellent material can be disposed onto the textured coating and may infuse into or grip the textured coating to enhance adhesion of the surface coating.

A DPS (dual pressure system) sport ball incorporating a special, environment friendly casing that forms an exterior surface of the ball, which is bonded to a multiple lining layers to form a laminated sheet. The laminated sheet is sized, printed, and cut out into specifically designed panels using highly optimized and automated specifically developed machines. The panel cut outs are stitched together using a special stitching machine and a specific, compatible bladder is incorporated in the ball. The partially machine stitched ball is then finally closed by manual stitching and the seams are protected with a special adhesive. Resultantly, due to unique construction materials, their unique arrangement, innovative technology, and highly automated manufacturing processes, the DPS sport ball has advantageous durability, playability, controllability and excellent flight characteristics. The DPS sport ball qualifies under the international standards of match/professional balls at a very competitive price.

The present invention relates especially to an intermediate material comprising, or even constituted exclusively by, an array of individualised ribbons, each ribbon being composed by a tape of unidirectional reinforcing fibres associated, by adhesion, on each of its faces with a veil of thermoplastic fibres, characterised in that the ribbons are disposed in successive layers, in such a way that the ribbons of two successive layers are superposed with or without crossing but without interlacement, the bond between a ribbon and the ribbon or ribbons with which it is superposed being ensured by adhesion, and in that in each layer the ribbons are disposed substantially parallel to each other over at least the major part of their length, while being independent and spaced from each other and in that the ribbons of at least two layers extend in two different directions.
