ABSTRACT:
A flexible, breathable laminate is provided for use in, for example, hospital gowns and the like, or tents. The article prevents liquids such as blood, alcohol and water from penetrating through internally while at the same time permits water vapor such as perspiration to pass out externally. The article comprises an inner layer of hydrophobic material and an outer attached layer of hydrophilic material containing a solid particulate or a liquid additive. For its intended uses, the article is fabricated possessing the following favorable combination of properties when compared to prior art materials: water vapor permeability, non-glare outer surface, bacteria barrier, comfort and/or drape, non-linting, liquid resistance, sterilizability and antistatic characteristics.
