Gas impermeable, elastically deformable laminate and inflatable articles formed therefrom

摘要: An inventive laminate is provided useful in forming inflatable articles, such as rafts and kayaks, automobile safety bags, air craft life saving jackets/vests, diving buoyancy compensator vests, medical therapeutic containers, waders, packaging material, boots soles, shoes the like. The includes an elastomer layer capable of repeated two-dimensional stretch retraction. Opposed to a first substantially gas impermeable layer. two layers are continuously adhered one another maintained laminated form. Products formed from can be repeatedly stretched retract accommodate substantial volume increases due elastic deformations response elevated pressures. Because elastically deformable, lower inflation pressures used clothing compensators, which results more comfortable garment.
