Development of Low Permeability Fabrics.
Abstract
The development of fabric having suitable characteristics for use in gliding decelerators is described. Very low permeabilities were obtained by applying a coating having a weight of at least 0.5 oz/yd square. Coating procedure consisted of two base coats of a soft polyurethane covered with a coat of nylon. When applied to appropriately designed basket weaves, fabrics were produced which were acceptable with respect to tearing strength and ability to be pressure packed without adhesion. (Author)
