An acoustic structure presenting a front surface and a back surface is provided. The acoustic structure includes a support layer comprising the back surface, a honeycomb core comprising a thickness defined between a back and a front, and a plurality of walls that define a plurality of honeycomb cells, wherein the plurality of honeycomb cells extend through the thickness of the honeycomb core opening out toward at least the front, and wherein the back of the honeycomb core is affixed to the support layer, a mesh layer affixed to the front of the honeycomb core, and a knit fabric layer affixed to the mesh layer and conforming to the front surface of the acoustic structure.

A synthetic resin skin material composite, including: a urethane resin skin material including a urethane resin skin layer provided at one surface of a substrate; and a cushion layer that is placed at a surface on an opposite side of the substrate from the surface of the urethane resin skin material at which the urethane resin skin layer is provided; in which the urethane resin skin material has recesses at a side of the urethane resin skin layer, and each of the recesses has a depth in a thickness direction of the synthetic resin skin material composite, such that the recesses extend from the urethane resin skin layer into the cushion layer beyond an interface between the urethane resin skin material and the cushion layer that is present in a region without a recess, as well as a method of producing a synthetic resin skin material composite.

A non-woven protective clothing against blood and viruses, which is composed from: a non-woven fabric layer, which has two surfaces; and a high waterproof moisture-permeable layer, which is a porous film that is laminated to one of the surfaces of the non-woven fabric layer; and an elastic pore filling layer, which is a hydrophilic polyurethane. The elastic pore filling layer is coated or printed onto the surface of the high waterproof moisture-permeable layer, and the thickness of the elastic pore filling layer is thinner than that of the high waterproof moisture-permeable layer. The synthetic blood permeability of the non-woven protective clothing against blood and viruses can resist a pressure of 2.0 psi for one minute, and the Phi-X174 bacteriophage penetrability thereof can resist a pressure of 2.0 psi for one minute.

Provided are a film and a water stopping tape that realize long-lasting water stopping properties. The film includes an outermost layer that contains a water-absorbent polymer and a fiber assembly and a substrate layer in this order, in which a degree of out-of-plane swelling of the outermost layer is higher than a degree of in-plane swelling of the outermost layer, and the water stopping tape includes the film.

The present invention relates to a nonwoven fabric comprising a plurality of polypropylene-containing fibers that form a nonwoven web, which fibers in addition contain a slip agent, the web has a side which is provided with an alternating pattern which consists of individualized bonded areas which bonded areas are in the form of rods which are arranged in the cross direction of the web, the alternating pattern of individualized bonded areas defines a non-bonded area, the web has a basis weight on the range of from 5-25 g/m.sup.2, the surface of the bonded areas is in the range of 5-20% of the total surface of the side, and the surface of the non-bonded area is in the range of 80-95% of the total surface of the side. The present invention further relates to a process for forming the nonwoven fabric.

The presently disclosed subject matter relates to multi-layer nonwoven materials and their use in absorbent articles. More particularly, the presently disclosed subject matter relates to layered structures that have high absorbency performance while having less absorbent mass than other commercially available materials.

The present invention relates to a separator for a secondary battery which is capable of improving a shut-down function of a cellulose-based multilayer separator physically having high strength. The separator for a secondary battery comprises a substrate formed of cellulose-based nanofibers and polyethylene nanoparticles; and a resin layer stacked on one surface or both surfaces of the substrate, the resin being formed from a polyolefin.

Composite panels and methods of preparation are described herein. In some embodiments, the composite panel can include a first fiber reinforcement, a polyurethane composite having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface, wherein the first surface is in contact with the first fiber reinforcement; and a cementitious material adjacent the first fiber reinforcement opposite the polyurethane composite. The polyurethane composite can be formed from (i) one or more isocyanates selected from the group consisting of diisocyanates, polyisocyanates, and mixtures thereof, (ii) one or more polyols, and (iii) a particulate filler. The fiber reinforcement can be formed from a woven or non-woven material, such as glass fibers. The composite panel can further include a material, such as a second fiber reinforcement and a cementitious layer, in contact with the second surface of the polyurethane composite. Articles comprising the composite panels are also disclosed.
