Abstract
Abstract A padded sheet material for packaging a moisture-sensitive material has a layer of paper which is adhered on one side of a layer of a sealed cell microporous foam polymer, such as microfoam. It is coated on the other side with a layer of a polymer, which excludes the passage of drops of water, but transmits moisture vapor through it whereby any condensate within the package evaporates out through the material. The paper may be reinforced with strands of fiberglass to strengthen it.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
83 words
A laminated sheet material for packaging a moisture-sensitive material comprising a layer of paper material, a layer of a sealed cell microporous foam polymer, a strong adhesive material securely binding the microporous foam polymer and paper layers together, and a layer of a polymer which excludes the passage of drops of water but transmits moisture vapor through it on the side of the paper material opposite the microporous foam layer whereby condensate within the package may evaporate out through the laminated sheet material.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
83 words
A laminated sheet material for packaging a moisture-sensitive material comprising a layer of paper material, a layer of a sealed cell microporous foam polymer, a strong adhesive material securely binding the microporous foam polymer and paper layers together, and a layer of a polymer which excludes the passage of drops of water but transmits moisture vapor through it on the side of the paper material opposite the microporous foam layer whereby condensate within the package may evaporate out through the laminated sheet material.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
18 words
A laminated sheet material as set forth in claim 1, wherein the layer of paper material is reinforced.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
21 words
A laminated sheet material as set forth in claim 2, wherein the layer of paper material is reinforced by fiberglass strands.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
28 words
A laminated sheet material as set forth in claim 3, wherein the layer of paper material comprises two plies of paper between which are interspersed strands of fiberglass.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
24 words
A laminated sheet material as set forth in any one of claims 1, 2, 3, or 4, wherein the layer of polymer comprises polyethylene.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
21 words
A laminated sheet material as set forth in claim 5, wherein the microporous foam polymer comprises a polypropylene microporous foam polymer.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
23 words
A laminated sheet material as set forth in claim 5, wherein the paper material comprises two plies of fifty pound kraft paper each.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
24 words
A laminated sheet material as set forth in claim 7, wherein the microporous foam layer ranges approximately from 1/16 inch to 1/8 inch thick.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
22 words
A laminated sheet material as set forth in claim 1, wherein the polymer layer is adhered to the layer of paper material.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
19 words
A laminated sheet material as set forth in claim 9, wherein it is adhered by a hot melt adhesive.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
55 words
A laminated sheet material as set forth in claim 1, wherein the microporous foam layer has an exposed surface, a cohesive nonadhesive coating is applied to the exposed surface of the mircoporous foam polymer whereby uniquely high coefficient of friction is imparted to the exposed surface, and securing of the laminate to itself is facilitated.
