Abstract: There are disclosed improved liquid impermeable and liquid vapour/gas permeable fabrics (10a - 10g). Such fabrics (10a - 10g) find particular application as construction fabrics, such as in the building industry, e.g. as house-wrap or as roofing underlay or in flooring. Liquid impermeable and liquid vapour permeable materials, including laminates, are known. Known fabrics suffer from a number of problems such as condensation and infrared loading, cost and complexity of manufacture, robustness, unwanted noise and water hold-out. Accordingly, an embodiment of the invention provides a laminated breathable fabric (10d;10e;10h) having as a layer thereof a reflective film or membrane (30d;30e;30h). In one implementation the reflective film (30d;30e;30h) comprises a breathable (moisture vapour permeable and optionally air/gas permeable) metallised microperforated film. The microperforated metallised film comprises microperforations of 0.1mm to 15mm in diameter, having surface coverage of around 2% to 10%. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A water-soluble, flame retardant polyester resin is obtained by a condensation reaction or a polycondensation reaction of a dicarboxylic-acid component, a glycol component, a water-solubility imparting component and a reactive phosphorus-containing compound such that a ratio of the water-solubility imparting component in a total of the dicarboxylic-acid component and the water-solubility imparting component is in a range of 1 to 60 mol%. Since this polyester resin can be dissolved in a solvent by allowing a halogen-free, phosphorus-containing polyester with excellent flame resistance to have water solubility, it is possible to improve applicability and eliminate problems of working environment and environmental destruction resulting from organic solvents. In addition, even when treating substrates such as fibers and PET films with the polyester resin, there is no deterioration of these substrates.
