FABRIC FOR PROTECTIVE GARMENTS

An improved fabric is provided for use in a protective garment. The fabric has two composites (10, 20) seamed together. Each composite is formed from a spunbonded olefin (11, 21) which has been laminated to a three-layered thermoplastic film (13, 14, 15 and 23, 24, 25). Compared to a fabric with onl...

More Information
Summary:An improved fabric is provided for use in a protective garment. The fabric has two composites (10, 20) seamed together. Each composite is formed from a spunbonded olefin (11, 21) which has been laminated to a three-layered thermoplastic film (13, 14, 15 and 23, 24, 25). Compared to a fabric with only one composite layer, various chemicals require more than 2.9 to more than 240 times as much time to penetrate the two-composite fabric of the invention.
