Fine-fiber nonwoven-supported coating structure

摘要

This invention relates to a liquid penetration-resistant water-vapor-permeable multi-layer composite material and process for making the same comprising a porous nanofiber web of polymeric fibers, wherein the polymeric fibers of the nanofiber web have a diameter of less than 1000 nanometers and wherein the nanofiber web has a basis weight of 5 to 40 grams per square meter and a surface roughness (DeltaRMS) of 5 to 15 micrometers and where, the porous nanofiber web is coated on a surface with a layer of water-vapor-permeable, hydrophilic, monolithic, water transport material.
