A manufactured shearling material comprises a leather layer and a knitted wool layer laminated together. The leather layer may be made by grinding up waste/scrap leather and adhering it to a backing, and giving texture (or texturizing) a surface to give the surface a particular feel (e.g., a suede feel). The scrap leather may be from various animals, including cows, sheep, etc. The knitted wool layer may comprise recycled wool clippings organized together to simulate the fur surface of natural shearling, and the wool clippings may be combined with one or more additional materials (e.g., fur, cotton, polyester, Tencel, silk, etc.) at various blends (e.g., 80/20 blend of wool and Tencel) to control the feel, aesthetics, and/or functionality, etc. of the knitted wool layer. Furs, hair, or other materials other may be utilized instead of the recycled wool clippings. An additional layer may be provided on top of the leather, with such additional layer being a synthetic recycled fabric.

The present disclosure relates to the use of eggshell particles as a polymer thermal stabilizer, preferably as a poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) thermal stabilizer; also to a flexible material comprising a multi-layered PVC-based material, method of obtaining and uses thereof.

An aspect of the present disclosure relates to a material comprising a poly(vinyl chloride), PVC, layer comprising eggshell particles, wherein the eggshell particle size is up to 200 μm, an intermediate layer or a plurality of intermediate layers; a support layer selected from the following list: fabric, knitted fabric, nonwoven, foam, or mixtures thereof; wherein the layers are bounded. Preferably a material solution free of azodicarbonamide, for automotive Interiors—Eco-friendlier, preferably sustainable artificial leather for automotive upholsteries.

A multi-layer packaging film structure is disclosed. This packaging film structure includes a barrier web made up of a barrier web core layer, a barrier web skin layer, and a packaging sealant layer. Each of the aforementioned film layers is biodegradable and/or compostable. At least one of the film layers is made up of at least 1 weight percent of poly(3-hydroxypropionate). The packaging film structure may also include a print web or a paperboard substrate.

A baseball/softball comprises a core and a cover, wherein the core is wrapped with a layer of fiber material, and the layer of fiber material is wrapped and glued with the cover. A method of processing baseball/softball comprises wrapping the core with the layer of fiber material, placing the core and the layer of fiber material into a cover material, placing the core, the layer of fiber material outside the core and the layer of cover material outside the layer of fiber material into a mold; molding the layer of cover material into the cover through a vulcanization process, gluing a vulcanization melting layer formed on inner wall of the cover to the layer of fiber material, and finally taking the finished product out of the mold. From the perspectives of smell, touch and visual sense, the product has good simulation effect of baseball/softball and better service effect.

A barrier laminate suitable for use in the construction of chemically protective garments is provided. The barrier laminate includes a nonwoven layer bonded to a breathable microporous film layer. Methods of forming a barrier laminate are also provided.

The present invention discloses a gradient slow-release active composite film and a preparation method thereof. The active composite film, from inside to outside, is composed of an antioxidative hygroscopic internal layer, at least one gradient anti-microbial antioxidative intermediate layer and at least one waterproof external layer; wherein the antioxidative hygroscopic internal layer is prepared by an alcohol-soluble protein-water-soluble protein substrate and a water-soluble antioxidant; the gradient anti-microbial antioxidative intermediate layer is prepared by an alcohol-soluble protein-water-soluble protein substrate and a lipid-soluble plant essential oil and a water-soluble antioxidant, wherein a mass ratio of the alcohol-soluble protein to the water-soluble protein is (1-2):(1-2); and the waterproof external layer is composed of a hydrophobic alcohol-soluble protein layer.

A base film for dressing and a manufacturing method thereof, and a dressing including the base film are provided. The base film includes a first region, including a composite fiber network of a micron fiber network and a nano fiber network; and a second region, including a micron fiber network. The composite fiber network in the first region and the micron fiber network in the second region are made of polymer materials.

Biodegradable layered composite comprising a first nonwoven biodegradable layer having a first and second major surface, the first nonwoven biodegradable layer comprising biodegradable polymeric melt-blown fibers, and a plurality of particles enmeshed in the biodegradable polymeric melt-blown fibers; and a biodegradable polymer film on at least a portion of the first major surface of the first nonwoven biodegradable layer. Biodegradable layered composite described herein can be used, for example, as biomulch for controlling weed growth and moisture.

An interior trim panel for a vehicle includes a polymer/leather layer having leather particles each having a diameter of less than 5000 micrometers dispersed within a polymer, and a backing layer adhered to the leather layer and providing a support structure for the polymer/leather layer.

The present invention discloses a gradient slow-release active composite film and a preparation method thereof. The active composite film, from inside to outside, is composed of an antioxidative hygroscopic internal layer, at least one gradient anti-microbial antioxidative intermediate layer and at least one waterproof external layer; wherein the antioxidative hygroscopic internal layer is prepared by an alcohol-soluble protein-water-soluble protein substrate and a water-soluble antioxidant; the gradient anti-microbial antioxidative intermediate layer is prepared by an alcohol-soluble protein-water-soluble protein substrate and a lipid-soluble plant essential oil and a water-soluble antioxidant, wherein a mass ratio of the alcohol-soluble protein to the water-soluble protein is (1-2):(1-2); and the waterproof external layer is composed of a hydrophobic alcohol-soluble protein layer.
