Development of Laminated Fabric Materials

Abstract

Laboratory and commercial scale experiments produced a three layer laminated fabric exhibiting 21.5 psi hydrostatic resistance, and permitting 590 grams per square meter per 24 hours moisture vapor transmission. The functional and processing characteristics of six different porous polymer structures, comprising the inner laminate layer, were explored. The mechanical operation even at full scale proceeded without difficulty. Additional equipment design and develop-ment is needed to achieve adequate product quality control and production rate.
