| 20150050460 | ELASTIC ARTIFICIAL LEATHER AND PRODUCTION METHOD THEREFOR - A production method of an elastically stretchable artificial leather which includes a step of making microfiberizable fibers into a web; a step of entangling the obtained web to produce an entangled nonwoven fabric; a step of converting the microfiberizable fibers in the nonwoven fabric to microfine fibers, thereby producing a substrate for artificial leather; a step of producing an artificial leather by using the obtained substrate for artificial leather; and a step wherein the obtained artificial leather is brought into close contact with an elastomer sheet stretched in a machine direction by 5 to 40%; the artificial leather is allowed to shrink in the machine direction simultaneously with allowing the elastomer sheet to shrink in the machine direction by relaxing elongation of the elastomer sheet; the artificial leather is heat-treated in shrunk state; and then the artificial leather is peeled off from the elastomer sheet. | 02-19-2015 |
| 20150140272 | EXTRUDED SURFACE COVERING MATERIAL FOR COVERING A BOAT OR YACHT DECK OR ANOTHER OUTDOOR AREA AND AN EXTRUDED PRODUCT COMPRISING SUCH MATERIAL - The invention relates to an extruded surface covering material for covering a boat or yacht deck or another outdoor area, the surface covering material comprising a synthetic material, where the surface covering material further comprises rigid hollow microballoons with an opaque surface.
