摘要:
A porous membrane assembly includes, in an exemplary embodiment, a porous membrane substrate having hydrophobic properties. The membrane substrate includes a first side, an opposing second side and a plurality of pores extending therethrough. The membrane substrate also includes a discontinuous layer of an oleophobic coating applied to the first side so that the plurality of pores in the first side are substantially free of the oleophobic coating, and a continuous layer of an amine containing hydrophilic polymer coating applied to the second side of the membrane substrate.

A venting system for a temporary shelter that includes one or more vents that are positioned in the exterior shell of the temporary shelter. Each of the one or more vents may include a membrane that is moisture vapor transmissive and resistant to liquid penetration. The membrane may have a moisture vapor transmissive rate of at least 4,000 g/m2/day. The membrane may be expanded polytetrafluoroethylene. The one or more vents may have a size such that there is approximately 4 m2 of vent surface area in the exterior shell of the temporary shelter per 20 m3 of interior space within the temporary shelter.

The insert includes a first layer formed from a gas permeable liquid impermeable microporous membrane and a second layer including activated carbon. Optionally the insert includes a third layer formed from a textile.
摘要:
Assemblies of fibers formed by splitting fibers formed from distinct compatible polymeric components, wherein at least one of the compatible polymeric components includes a liquid crystalline polymer and another of the compatible polymeric components includes a thermoplastic isotropic polymer and despite being compatible, the liquid crystalline polymeric component readily separates from the thermoplastic isotropic polymeric component without requiring a separate mechanical or chemical treatment step to achieve splitting.
摘要:
A multiple component spunbond web is provided in which the spunbond fibers are polymeric sheath-core fibers with a sheath made of a blend of polyethylene and an acid copolymer and a polyester or polyamide core. The spunbond webs can be thermally bonded have an improved combination of strength, softness, and heat sealability and can be used to prepare multi-layer composite sheets including spunbond-meltblown-spunbond fabrics suitable for use in medical garments and other end uses.
摘要:
A process for forming multiple component meltblown fibers by extruding a first distinct melt-processable polymer through a row of first extrusion orifices, simultaneously extruding a second distinct melt-processable polymer through a row of second extrusion orifices, fusing the first and second melt-processable polymers into extruded composite filaments after extrusion, and pneumatically attenuating and breaking the extruded composite filaments with jets of high velocity gas so as to form the multiple component meltblown fibers.
