Abstract

Abstract A moisture-permeable waterproof coated fabric having a microporous polyurethane layer is obtained by the so-called wet coagulation method using as a coated solution a polar organic solvent solution containing 8 to 25% by weight of a polyurethane elastomer, 0.1 to 10% by weight of a water repellent agent, 0.2 to 3% by weight of polyisocyanate and 1 to 8% by weight of a nonionic surfactant.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 107 words
A method of making a coated fabric having both water-proofness and moisture permeability characterized in that, in forming a microporous polyurethane layer by applying a polar organic solvent solution of a polyurethane elastomer to a base fabric, then immersing the base fabric in a coagulating bath to allow gelation to take place, followed by water-washing and drying, there is used as the coating solution a polar organic solvent solution containing a polyurethane elastomer and a metal complex represented by the following general formula; ##STR3## where R is a hydrocarbon radical having 8 or more carbon atoms, M is Cr or Al, and A is Cl or OH.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 107 words
A method of making a coated fabric having both water-proofness and moisture permeability characterized in that, in forming a microporous polyurethane layer by applying a polar organic solvent solution of a polyurethane elastomer to a base fabric, then immersing the base fabric in a coagulating bath to allow gelation to take place, followed by water-washing and drying, there is used as the coating solution a polar organic solvent solution containing a polyurethane elastomer and a metal complex represented by the following general formula; ##STR3## where R is a hydrocarbon radical having 8 or more carbon atoms, M is Cr or Al, and A is Cl or OH.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 49 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein the coating solution further contains from about 0.2 to about 3% by weight of a polyisocyanate, from about 0.1 to about 10% by weight of a water repellant agent and from about 1 to about 8% by weight of a nonionic surfactant.
