A method of forming a sloped roof can comprise obtaining a base layer comprising at least one of a permeable mesh, woven fabric, non-woven fabric, plastic, foam material or combinations thereof; applying the base layer over a roofing substrate of the sloped roof; and applying a liquid roofing material to the base layer to form a liquid applied roof.

Disclosed embodiments generally relate to a transaction card with a fabric inlay. The transaction card may include a housing component having a first housing surface opposite a second housing surface and an inlay component having a first inlay surface opposite a second inlay surface. The inlay and housing may be joined along the second inlay surface and the first housing surface. In addition, the first inlay surface may include a fabric material and a backer layer configured to support the fabric material of the first inlay surface.

A fibrous material or composite including a plurality of layers joined to one another, for example, by needlepunching, is disclosed. The fibrous composite generally has an asymmetrical stretch profile, such that the fibrous composite is more extensible in the cross-machine direction than in the machine direction. The fibrous composite may find particular use in forming a cure-in-place pipe liner.

Proposed is a composite material with a helical structure and, more particularly, a composite material with a helical structure that has a vibration absorption property. The composite material includes a laminated structure formed by stacking a plurality of sheet layers on top of each other. The structural structure has a helical structure in which two adjacent sheet layers are slid with respect thereto with a predetermined angle being made therebetween in a stacking direction, and the predetermined angle α is less than 45°

Laminated parts are described that include a core, a fiber layer arranged on each side of the core and impregnated with a polyurethane resin, and an outer layer that at least partially coats at least one of the polyurethane impregnated fiber layers, in which the outer layer is the cured reaction product of a reaction mixture that includes: (1) a polyisocyanate, (2) a polyether polyol having a molecular weight of 800 Da to 25,000 Da and a functionality of 2 to 8, and (3) a fatty acid ester having isocyanate-reactive functionality. Methods of producing such laminated parts are also described.

Aspects herein are directed to a composite textile having a substrate layer (e.g., knit, woven, nonwoven, etc.) and a film layer that is secured or bonded to the substrate layer. A plurality of slits extend through both the substrate layer and the film layer. The film layer is formed of a material that dimensionally transforms when exposed to an external stimulus such as moisture. When exposed to moisture the film layer swells, which causes flaps formed by the plurality of slits to extend in a z-direction away from the film layer. The opening of the flaps creates through-passages that extend through the thickness of the composite structure.

The present invention relates to a resin composition including an acrylic polymer (A) and a thermosetting resin (B), wherein a phase separation structure of a first phase containing the acrylic polymer (A) and a second phase containing the thermosetting resin (B) is formed, and an average domain size of the second phase is 20 μm or less.

A multi-layered sheet material (1) including a reinforcing support (2) having a polymer coating (3) on at least one side, alternatively on both sides, wherein the reinforcing support (2) includes at least one textile fabric (6), such as a supporting woven fabric (6a), wherein the fabric (6), has at least two surface regions (13a; 13b; 34a; 34b) that differ from each other in at least one mechanical property, as well as a crossway element, such as a crossway bellows, for components, vehicles, building connections, or for flight passenger bridges or staircase bridges, including at least one such multi-layered sheet material, and a vehicle, a building connection, and a flight passenger or staircase bridge including such a crossway element.

Multilayer thermoplastic films, and laminates and articles comprising the films, wherein the film comprises at least one inner layer and at least two outer layers, wherein the inner layer comprises a polymeric composition comprising from about 55% to about 95% of one or more non-hydrogenated styrenic block copolymers, olefinic block copolymers, or combinations thereof; and each outer layer comprises at least 20% polypropylene and has a thickness of from about 5% to about 15% of the total film thickness, and further wherein the film has a constant force tear propagation of about 20% or less.

Floor coverings having a greige good, an adhesive layer, and a secondary backing material. The greige good has a primary backing component having adjoined first and second portions, and a plurality of fibers. The secondary backing material has an attached portion and a first exposable portion, with the attached portion adhered to the first portion of the primary backing component by contact with the adhesive layer. The second portion of the primary backing component is unattached to the first exposable portion of the secondary backing material, and the first exposable portion defines a portion of the first end edge of the floor covering. The second portion of the primary backing component is selectively moveable relative to the first portion to a position in which at least a portion of the second portion of the primary backing component does not overlie the first exposable portion of the secondary backing material.
