Non-halogenated tri-laminate fabric for automotive security shades or covers

摘要

A non-halogenated, tri-laminate fabric for automotive security shades or covers, comprising a layer of reinforcing fabric scrim juxtapositioned between at least two layers of a thermoplastic olefin film comprised of a rubber modified polyolefin compound, said layers being thermally bonded together to form a fire retardant, nontoxic tri-laminate fabric. The rubber modified polyolefin is a rubber modified polypropylene or polyethylene homopolymer and copolymer. The rubber is natural or synthetic. The preferred thermoplastic olefin film has characteristic melt peaks at temperatures ranging between about 61 DEG C. and 100 DEG C. and between about 105 DEG C. and 168 DEG C., with melt peaks forming preferably at about 86 DEG C. and 142 DEG C. Acceptable thermal lamination of the layers occurs at temperatures ranging between about 120 DEG C. and 140 DEG C.
