Aspects herein are directed to a reflective textile, and articles of apparel, uppers for an article of footwear constructed therefrom, comprising a reflective material dispersed between a first and second surface of the textile in a first zone. The first zone reflects a greater amount of light than a second zone of the textile. Other aspects herein are directed to a method of manufacturing a reflective textile or article having a portion comprising a reflective textile.

Provided are fabrics having retroreflectivity, products produced therefrom and methods of their manufacture.

A radiative cooling fabric comprises a flexible substrate layer and a functional layer stacked in order. The first functional layer comprises a first functional resin and a first functional filler dispersed in the first functional resin. A mass fraction of the first functional filler in the first functional layer is in a range of 1% to 20%. An emissivity of the radiative cooling fabrics in the wavelength of 7 μm to 14 μm is not less than 80%. A reflectivity of the radiative cooling fabrics in the wavelength of 300 nm to 2500 nm is not less than 80%. An average value of warp recovery angles of the radiative cooling fabrics is greater than or equal to 95°, and an average value of the weft recovery angles of the radiative cooling fabrics is greater than or equal to 91°.

The present invention may provide a screen used for screen golf, which can improve the brightness and clarity of the image projected on the screen by suppressing the light of the image from passing through the screen and increasing the reflectance of light from the front of the screen when an image is output by a projector on the screen. In addition, despite repeated golf shots of many users, the brightness and clarity of the image projected on the screen may not be damaged.

The present disclosure relates to a breathable layered flexible material comprising at least one polyvinyl chloride (PVC) porous layer or a plurality of PVC porous layers and a support layer. The the pores of the PVC porous layer or plurality of PVC porous layers are obtainable by water evaporation of a water-in-oil PVC emulsion. The pores extend from the PVC layer to the support layer providing the material breathability. The disclosure also relates to a method for preparing the breathable layered flexible material. Upholsteries, in particular car upholsteries, comprising the breathable layered flexible material are also disclosed.

The present invention provides an article, in particular for solar protection, comprising at least one metal-coating layer and a textile layer having an outside face comprising at least one polymer mixed with at least one plasticizer to form a first matrix. Advantageously, the bonding between said first matrix and the metal-coating layer is provided by an intermediate polymer layer comprising at least one coupling polymer, said coupling polymer being bonded by chemical bonds firstly to the first matrix and secondly to the metal-coating layer. The present invention also provides a method of fabricating such an article including a step of metal coating by depositing metal vapor under reduced pressure.
