Abstract:
1. A method of fabricating a textile laminate comprising: providing a hydrophobic membrane with a top surface and a bottom surface, the hydrophobic membrane having a plurality of tangled polymer fibers and a plurality of pores among the polymer fibers, the pores being water vapor permeable and liquid water impermeable; attaching a plurality of adhesive powders to the polymer fibers on the top surface and the bottom surface by utilizing static to spread the adhesive powders, the grain size of each adhesive powders being small enough to remain the pores without obstructing the permeability; adhering an outer fabric layer onto the top surface of the hydrophobic membrane by the adhesive powder dispersed thereon; and adhering an inner fabric layer onto the bottom surface of the hydrophobic membrane by the adhesive powder dispersed thereon; wherein the grain size of the adhesive powder has a diameter of about 50 to 500 nm.
