Provided among other things is a method of forming a composite glove with a grip texture, comprising: (a) providing a coagulant-coated support layer that is a fabric layer or a polymeric layer; (b) dip applying to the support layer a foamed polymer dispersion comprising about 0.5% to about 2.0% by weight hygroscopic agent; (c) allowing a portion of the applied foamed polymer dispersion to coagulate based the coagulant diffusing from the support layer to form a partially coagulated foam layer; (d) washing the partially coagulated foam layer to remove uncoagulated polymer to form a coagulated foam layer; and (e) vulcanizing the coagulated foam layer to form a vulcanized open foam layer laminated to the support.

Textured fibrous structures, and more particularly textured fibrous structures having a plurality of deformations such that the textures fibrous structures exhibit novel surface height properties compared to known fibrous structures, and methods for making such textured fibrous structures.

A method for forming an antislip material. A flexible thermoplastic carrier is provided. A hot release surface is provided. Provided is a first layer of discrete thermoplastic particles, sifting on the hot release surface. The discrete particles are above their softening temperatures, providing in the first layer a tackiness. The method includes contacting the carrier with the tacky first layer for sticking the first layer to the carrier, and thereafter removing the carrier, and therewith the tacky first layer stuck to the carrier, from the release surface. Thereby the carrier is provided with a hot, preferably discontinuous and/or elastomeric antislip coating. With a heat energy of the hot coating a bond is formed between the carrier and the coating. The removing of the carrier includes pulling the carrier out of the contact with a pulling-out force. The temperature of the hot release surface is above the melting temperature of the carrier. The carrier would be spoiled, if heated completely to the temperature of the release surface and simultaneously pulled with the pulling-out force. Therefore the contacting time is kept shorter than a minimum time required by a heat of the hot release surface for spoiling the carrier. Flat-topped roughening projections can be included in the antislip coating.

A steering wheel cover including a stretch fabric ring having a c-shaped cross-section forming a three-hundred-sixty angular degree circle, a first frictitious layer lining at least some of the inside of the stretch fabric ring excepting an angular fabric-only portion of the three-hundred-sixty degree circle, and a second frictitious layer covering some of the outside of the stretch fabric ring, but not covering the angular fabric-only portion.

A multilayer anti-slip compact structure for individual/joint application on a forehand and/or a backhand side of a hockey stick blade, which contains a backing carrier (A) and an anti-slip layer (B) applied on said backing carrier (A), wherein the backing carrier (A) contains a first layer with thickness max. 0.3 mm and tensile strength min. 400 N and weight max. 130 g/m.sup.2; on the first layer, a second resin or glue layer (3) with thickness max. 0.1 mm containing polyurethane, polyacrylate, organic resin or suitable polymer, or their combination; and the anti-slip layer (B) is formed by a third resin layer (5) with content of epoxide and/or phenol or polymer with thickness max. 0.1 mm and weight max. 250 g/m.sup.2. The first layer of the backing carrier (A) is formed by a plastic film (1) from a polymer or a fibre/net structure (2) from fibres containing cotton, viscose, glass fibres, plastic fibres, polyester fibres, or their combination.

A method for forming an antislip material. A flexible thermoplastic carrier is provided. A hot release surface is provided. Provided is a first layer of discrete thermoplastic particles, sitting on the hot release surface. The discrete particles are above their softening temperatures, providing in the first layer a tackiness.

Organic fine particles and a slip-resistance agent composition which are capable of providing excellent slip-resistance to a base material. The organic fine particles contain a polymer having a repeating unit formed of: (I) a hydrophobic monomer that has a single ethylenically unsaturated double bond and at least one branched or cyclic hydrocarbon group having 3-40 carbon atoms; and, if necessary, (II) a cross-linking monomer having at least two ethylenically unsaturated double bonds. The slip-resistance agent composition contains (A) the organic fine particles and (B) an aqueous medium.
