The invention relates to a multilayer structure comprising at least one layer of supramolecular material and one layer of rigid material, to a method for producing such a structure by casting a composition comprising a precursor of the supramolecular material, and to the uses of the structures produced, especially for applications where a dampening of impacts, vibrations and/or sound waves is desired, for example for producing locomotion vehicles such as automotive, rail, nautical, aeronautical or aerospace vehicles, or for the construction industry.

Materials and methods for preparing payload-containing microcapsules with walls that have orthogonal functionality are described. In some embodiments, the microcapsule comprises a material having a polymer matrix filled with a self-healing agent, and the microcapsule is modified with a catalyst and an orthogonally-bound silica support.

A multilayer self-healing polyester composite material and a method for its manufacture for lightweight application structures. The multi-layered self-healing polyester composite comprises a backing layer which is a textured polyester layer; a middle layer, a tufted pile of polyester fibers tufted on the backing layer; and an outer layer comprising a solid dense polyester layer that bonded to the middle layer. The solid dense polyester outer layer has self-healing properties. The outer surface layer of the self-healing polyester composite is created by a heating process of the tufted pile of polyester fibers. This process results in the formation of the solid dense polyester outer layer.

A ballistic resistant curtain system is provided formed of a plurality of aligned ballistic material panels. Panels protect vertical surfaces, and can be reconfigured for horizontal surfaces or other oriented areas. Adjacent panels may be are aligned end to end in a butt or overlap manner, or configured to be angularly disposed toward the direction of fire such as to form a line of sight overlap. Each panel is formed of high strength fibers made from materials such as extended chain ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. An exterior coating formed of fabric, polyurethane, or other material provides both an acoustic attenuation or sound absorbing surface as well as an aesthetic facing for providing an improved visual appearance to the area. The instant abstract is neither intended to define the invention disclosed in this specification nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.
