The disclosure provides a textile having a photothermal absorber layer, which comprises a conjugated polymer; and a transmissive layer, which comprises fibers that forward scatter incident visible light with a transmission of 60% or greater. The photothermal absorber layer can be nylon coated with a conjugated polymer, such as PEDOT. The transmissive layer can be a non-woven polypropylene material. The disclosure also provides wearables, such as a clothing, comprising such textile, and methods for making the same.

Laminated light-blocking decorative articles are prepared by applying an aqueous foamed opacifying composition to a non-woven fabric, drying, laminating a decorative fabric to the resulting dry foamed opacifying layer, and densifying that layer to have a thickness that is at least 20% less than before densifying. This operation can be carried out so that non-woven fabric, decorative fabric, and aqueous foamed opacifying composition are supplied in a single-pass, in-line operation to make any desired quantity of a laminated light-blocking decorative article. The applied aqueous foamed opacifying composition has 35%-70% solids and a foam density of 0.1-0.5 g/cm.sup.3. It is composed of (a) porous particles, (b) a binder material, (c) two or more additives comprising at least one foaming surfactant and at least one foam stabilizer, (d) an aqueous medium, and (e) at least 0.0001 weight % of an opacifying colorant that absorbs electromagnetic radiation having a wavelength of 380-800 nm.

A method of creating an engineered textile includes placing a yarn-wound jig on an upper surface of a substrate, selectively printing or extruding a bonding material across the plurality of arranged yarn strands, solidifying the bonding material to bond adjacent ones of the plurality of arranged yarn strands together and form a bound plurality of arranged yarn strands, and removing the bound plurality of arranged yarn strands from the substrate and the frame.

A cloth mask includes a body, where the body has a piece of copper ion cloth and a piece of zinc oxide antibacterial cloth, the copper ion cloth is woven by a mixture of a first yarn, a second yarn and a copper yarn, the first yarn has a hydrophobicity and a moisture permeability and can form a water-resistant surface, and has a water-repellent effect and is exposed at an inner layer of the copper ion cloth, and the second yarn has a moisture-removing property and can form an antibacterial and moisture-removing surface to be exposed together with the copper yarn on a surface of the copper ion cloth.

Disclosed is a two layered belt useful in the manufacture of tissue products comprising a first woven layer and a second nonwoven layer joined together in a laminated arrangement. The woven layer typically forms the machine contacting layer of the belt and is woven from a highly abrasion resistant material, while the nonwoven layer contacts the nascent tissue web. The woven layer may be provided with valleys and ridges that the nascent web is molded into, while the nonwoven layer may be provided with elements that impart a visually aesthetic pattern to the web. In this manner the belt may be useful in the production of products having desirable physical properties resulting from molding into the woven fabric while also being visually pleasing to the user.

A fiber-reinforced resin component comprises a first part having a plurality of first fiber layers impregnated in a matrix resin and a second part having a plurality of second fiber layers impregnated in the matrix resin. The second part is bonded to the first part via an adhesive layer. The fiber-reinforced resin component further comprises a plurality of connecting fibers that connect the first part and the second part. One end portion of the connecting fibers is sandwiched between the first fiber layers, and the other end portion of the connecting fibers is sandwiched between the second fiber layers.

An antitheft device includes, a lock bag with a bag portion made from a cut-resistant material and a cable guide; and a cable lock, including a lock body, a lock cable, and a key; such that the lock cable protrudes through the cable guide to attach the cable lock to the lock bag; such that the lock body is positionable over a side mirror of a vehicle, with the side mirror inside an interior of the bag portion, such that the side mirror antitheft device can be secured and locked in position on the side mirror, thereby preventing theft of a mirror portion of the side mirror. Additionally, the antitheft device can be secured in position with the lock cable attached to a mounting structure with the lock bag closed and a personal object locked in the interior of the lock bag, thereby preventing theft of the personal object.

The present disclosure provides a laminated fabric structure comprising: a fabric layer; a nanofibrous membrane comprising a matrix of nanofibers; and a permeable adhesive layer sandwiched between the fabric layer and the nanofibrous membrane and comprising a filled portion and an unfilled portion. The permeable adhesive layer is able to combine the nanofibrous membrane and fabric layers together to provide significant protection on the nanofibrous membrane without sacrificing on the air permeability of the laminated fabric structure.
