Abstract
Fabrics are disclosed having a coating comprising a reaction product of a silicone component derived from an aqueous silicone emulsion and a polyurethane component derived from an aqueous silicone dispersion. The fabrics are particularly useful in the preparation of airbags having improved air or gas retention properties.
Claims16
A coated fabric comprising a fabric having a coating composition on at least a portion of the surface of the fabric, wherein the coating composition comprises a reaction product of;
- A) 5 to 60 weight parts of a silicone component wherein the silicone component is derived from an aqueous silicone emulsion, and
- B) 40 to 95 weight parts of a polyurethane component wherein the polyurethane component is derived from an aqueous polyurethane dispersion.
A method of coating a fabric comprising;
- (I) applying a composition on one surface of the fabric, the composition comprising;
- A) 5 to 60 weight parts of a silicone component wherein the silicone component is derived from an aqueous silicone emulsion, and
- B) 40 to 95 weight parts of a polyurethane component wherein the polyurethane component is derived from an aqueous polyurethane dispersion, and
- (II) exposing the layer to air for sufficient time to form a cured coating.
