Abstract
A composite structure comprising a textile layer and a cover layer, wherein the composite structure is elastic and shows an elongation of at least 20% at an elongation force of 50 N; a method of preparing the composite structure; and the use of the composite structure as a surface material in the interior of a vehicle.
Claims15
A composite structure comprising a textile layer and a cover layer, wherein the composite structure is elastic and shows an elongation of at least 20% at an elongation force of 50 N in a test according to DIN 53 354.
The composite structure according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the textile layer is elastic and shows an elongation of at least 100% at an elongation force of 50 N in a test according to DIN 53 354.
The composite structure according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the textile layer contains elastic fibers showing an elastic behaviour at an elongation of at least 100%.
The composite structure according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the cover layer is directly bonded to the textile layer.
The composite structure according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the cover layer contains an elastomer.
The composite structure according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the cover layer contains a thermoplastic or thermoset polymer selected from the group consisting of a polyolefin, a polyurethane, polyvinylchloride, or a combination thereof.
The composite structure according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the composite structure contains a compound structure consisting of a part of the textile layer and a part of the cover layer interpenetrating each other.
The composite structure according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the composite structure contains a foam layer, the textile layer, and the cover layer in this order, and/or wherein the cover layer contains a foam layer.
The composite structure according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the textile layer has a thickness of 0.1 to 2.5 mm, and the cover layer has a thickness of 0.05 mm to 1.5 mm.
