Abstract
Abstract An unfoamed permeable material, which absorbs and desorbs moisture satisfactorily and which is suitable for making thin-walled articles having a maximum thickness of 3 mm, is based on plastic and/or rubber mixtures containing macromolecular hydrophilic fillers. The hydrophilic fillers are synthetic, water insoluble, cross-linked macromolecular materials containing pendent polar groups, which are able to bind water reversibly, e.g. hydroxy, amine, amide, carboxylic and sulfonic groups in H + , Na + , K + , Li + , Ca ++ , or Ba ++ form, or quaternary ammonium groups in OH - , Cl - or HSO 4 - form.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
139 words
An unfoamed, thin-walled article of a maximum thickness of 3 mm. and having a density in the range from 350 to 1500 kg/m 3 comprising a plastic or rubber carrier having uniformally dispersed within said carrier between 10 and 50% by weight of finely divided particles, below 50μ in size, of a polymeric non-ionic organic hydrophilic macromolecular filler, said polymeric filler being crosslinked sufficient to render the same infusible and insoluble in said carrier, said filler being insoluble in water, said filler containing pendent polar groups selected from the group consisting of hydroxy, amine, or amide groups, said polymeric filler being able to bind water vapor reversibly and being selected from the group consisting of poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate), poly(ethylene glycol monomethacrylate), poly(glyceryl monomethacrylate), terpolymer of methacrylic acid, methacrylamide and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate and amides of poly(acrylic acid) and poly(methacrylic acid).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
139 words
An unfoamed, thin-walled article of a maximum thickness of 3 mm. and having a density in the range from 350 to 1500 kg/m 3 comprising a plastic or rubber carrier having uniformally dispersed within said carrier between 10 and 50% by weight of finely divided particles, below 50μ in size, of a polymeric non-ionic organic hydrophilic macromolecular filler, said polymeric filler being crosslinked sufficient to render the same infusible and insoluble in said carrier, said filler being insoluble in water, said filler containing pendent polar groups selected from the group consisting of hydroxy, amine, or amide groups, said polymeric filler being able to bind water vapor reversibly and being selected from the group consisting of poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate), poly(ethylene glycol monomethacrylate), poly(glyceryl monomethacrylate), terpolymer of methacrylic acid, methacrylamide and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate and amides of poly(acrylic acid) and poly(methacrylic acid).
Claim 3
Independent Claim
163 words
The method of forming unfoamed, thin flexible sheets having a density in the range of from 350 to 1500 kb/m 3 comprising the steps of forming a non-aqueous mixture of a plastic or rubber carrier and between 10 to 50% by weight of the total weight of the mixture of finely divided particles, below 50μ in size, of a polymerized non-ionic organic hydrophilic macroreticulated filler, said polymerized filler being crosslinked sufficient to render the same infusible and insoluble in said carrier, and said polymerized filler being insoluble in water and containing a pendent polar group selected from the group consisting of hydroxy, amine or amide group, said polymerized filler being able to bind water vapor reversibly, and being selected from the group consisting of poly(hydroxyethyl methyacrylate), poly(ethylene glycol monomethacrylate), poly(glyceryl monomethacrylate), terpolymer of methacrylic acid, methacrylamide and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate and amides of poly(acrylic acid) and poly(methacrylic acid), and thereafter forming said mixture into a sheet of a maximum thickness of 3 mm.
