A disposable surgical gown is provided. The gown includes a front panel and sleeves formed from a first spunbond layer, a nonwoven (e.g., SMS) laminate, and a liquid impervious, moisture vapor breathable elastic film disposed therebetween. The gown also includes a first and second rear panels formed from a nonwoven laminate that is air breathable and allows for an air volumetric flow rate ranging from about 20 standard cubic feet per minute (scfm) to about 80 scfm. The gown further includes a collar formed from an air breathable knit material positioned adjacent a proximal end of the gown. The collar defines a neck opening having a v-neck shape adjacent the front panel. The v-neck shape forms an angle of greater than 90° at the neck opening. The combination of features results in a reduced-glare gown that is stretchable and impervious to liquids, yet can still dissipate heat and humidity.

A soundproof member is provided. The soundproof member includes a structural element, and a first composite film which is disposed on the bottom surface of the structural element. The structural member includes at least one through hole and the through hole passes through the structural element. The first composite film includes a polymer material and an inorganic nanoscale material, wherein the inorganic nanoscale material is a one-dimensional inorganic nanoscale material or a two-dimensional inorganic nanoscale material.

An elastomeric composition, including at least one skin layer and a core layer, with non-blocking properties such that the elastomeric composition can be wound is provided. The core layer includes an elastomer, and the skin layer includes an elastomer, which may be the same or different from the core layer, and a non-elastic polyolefin. Further, the skin layer can be present as a small portion of the total elastomeric composition, and may maintain the elastic efficiency of the composition.

A decorative sheet for vacuum forming is difficult to peel off during vacuum forming between a first vinyl chloride-based resin layer and a second vinyl chloride-based resin layer and can give a design of various colors. This decorative sheet for vacuum forming includes: a first vinyl chloride-based resin layer containing a vinyl chloride-based resin and a coloring agent; and a second vinyl chloride-based resin layer which is laminated on the first vinyl chloride-based resin layer, contains a vinyl chloride-based resin, and is transparent, wherein the content of titanium oxide particles of the coloring agent is less than 1 part by mass, the first vinyl chloride-based resin layer contains inorganic particles, and at least some of the inorganic particles are calcium carbonate particles.

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.

Described are improved dental materials and appliances made therefrom that have a range of flexibility and strength and exhibit improved comfort and effectiveness in orthodontic and other treatment.
