Definitions
- This invention is in the field of protective garments. It relates particularly to disposable gar- ments fabricated of synthetic, thermoplastic materials.
- laminated materials comprising a film and a substrate are also known in protective garments.
- materials such as "Tyvek” are conventionally laminated to a film of polyethylene, for example, and made into protective garments.
- Another object is to provide an improved laminated material for disposable protective garments.
- Still another object is to provide an improved protective garment material which is stronger, more durable, and affords greater hazardous environment protection than materials presently available.
- Yet another object is to provide a new and im ⁇ proved protective garment construction.
- FIG. 1 is a front elevational view of a protective garment embodying features of the present invention
- FIG. 2 is an enlarged, sectional view through a portion of the garment shown in FIG. 1, illustrating the material composition and the garment construction at a seam;
- FIG. 3 is a further enlarged sectional view of the circled portion of the material illustrated in FIG. 2;
- FIG. 4 is a view similar to Fig. 2 showing another form of seam in a garment construction embodying features of the invention. DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
- the garment 10 is of the type which might be worn by a worker in a hazardous chemical environment, for example.
- the garment 10 is fabricated of a synthetic, cloth-like material 11 also embodying features of the present invention.
- the material 11 is made up of pattern segments preferably bonded along seams 12 by a thermal-bonding process described in French U.S. Patent No. 4,555,293. For reasons which will hereinafter be discussed, the material 11 is particularly well suited for this bonding process.
- the garment includes a conventional zipper strip 15.
- the strip 15 may also be bonded to the material 11.
- the zipper strip 15 opens and closes in a conventional man ⁇ ner to permit the wearer to get in and out of the garment 10.
- the garment material 11 comprises an outer film 20 of a syn ⁇ thetic material manufactured and sold by the British Petroleu Corporation .
- the film 20 is laminated to an inner substrate 21 of spun-bonded polyester material.
- a layer 22 of adhesive is provided between the film 20 and the substrate 21 to enhance the bond between them.
- Fig. 2 also shows two adjoining edges 30 and 31 of the material 11 bonded together at a seam 12.
- the seam bond which is here identified gener- ally at 35, is a thermal bond created by the application of pressure and heat in the manner described in the French paten
- the film 20 is a five-layered product. As seen in Fig. 3, which is a greatly enlarged cross-section of a segment of the garment material 11 encircled in Fig. 2, the film comprises five discrete layers 41, 42, 43, 44, and
- the first or inner layer 41 of the film 20 is a poly- ethylene layer.
- the second layer 42 is a "tie layer” of water resistant adhesive resin.
- the third or center layer is ethylene vinyl alcohol, (EVOH), chemically written as:
- the fourth layer 44 is another layer of water resistant ad ⁇ hesive resin.
- the fifth, or outer, layer 45 is another layer of polyethylene.
- the film 20 has been described in terms of its inner layer 41 and its outer layer 45 being polyethylene. Either or both may also be a polyester according to the present invention, however. In either case the film 20 is a five layer (at least) high barrier film which contains a center layer of EVOH.
- the film 20 is "Corona” treated before being combined with the substrate
- the substrate 21 is a spun-bonded polyester material incorporating low temperature binders.
- the binders may be ethyl vinyl acetate (EVA) , or polyvinyl acetate (PVA) , for example.
- the substrate 21 is formed, by HDK Indus- tries, Inc., Rogersville, Tenn., using conventional methods, it is calendered on both sides 55 and 56.
- the side 56 which will be exposed in the garment material 11 is extensively calendered by rolling to press all loose fiber ends into the surface 56 and avoid subsequent "linting".
- the side 55 which is to adhere to the film 20, is calendered only approximately 70% of the amount of calendering used on side 56, an amount sufficient to provide cross-machine strength to the substrate.
- the film 20 and the substrate 21 are laminated with the adhesive layer 22 between them.
- EVA ethyl vinyl acetate
- a film 20 of two and one-half mils thickness is employed with a two ounce spun bound polyester material substrate 21.
- the lamination process completes the fabrication of a material 11 having very high barrier characteristics, excellent strength, and structure extremely well suited for thermal bonding to form the seams 12.
- the thermal bond 35 is formed at edges 31 and 32 of material 11 pattern segments.
- the thermal pressure bonding process described in the French patent is made particularly effective by the low temperature binder resins in the substrate 21.
- FIG. 4 a portion of a garment embodying another feature of the invention is illustrated at 110.
- the garment 110 is made up of material 111 identical to the material 11 hereinbefore discussed. However, the seam 112 is created in a different manner.
- the seam 112 is made by placing the two edges 131 and 132 into abutting relationship.
- the film 120 which is identical to the film 20 hereinbefore discussed, is on the outside of the garment material 111.
- a narrow strip 135 of the same material as the garment material 111 is placed over the abutting material edges 131 and 132 with its film side down.
- the film strip 135 is then thermal bonded to the film 120 over the abutting edges 131 and 132.
- the thermal bonding of the strip 135 is carried out in the following manner.
- the strip 135 is heated by passing it over a Teflon roller heated to approximately 200°F. It is pressed against the Teflon roller by a urethane roller under a pressure of four psi. Air is heated to ⁇ approximately 440°F and blown in a fine jet 'point where the strip 135 and the abutting edges 131 and 132 come together, between the strip and the material 111, before it passes between the rollers.
- a bond is formed between the strip 135 and the abutting film 120 segments.
- the seam bond at the strip 135 is of high strength and durability. It is impervious to the hazardous environment. It requires no other thermal bonding (or sewing) of the edges 131 and 132 directly to each other.
