Abstract:
A hydrophobic needle-felted insulation blanket having a textile-grade needle felted fiberglass blanket having a density in the range of 4 to 15 lb/ft3 (65 to 250 g/L) contains a uniform hydrophobic fluoropolymer disposed homogeneously throughout the textile grade needle felted fiberglass blanket without creating a higher density of hydrophobic fluoropolymer near edges of the textile-grade needle felted fiberglass blanket. The fluoropolymer has a melting point over 5500 Fahrenheit and decomposed residual hydrophilic compounds uniformly disposed through the textile grade needle felted fiberglass blanket. The finished hydrophobic needle-felted insulation blanket is (i) temperature stable up to 5500 Fahrenheit, (ii) moldable, (iii) silica dust free, and thereafter retains a selected shape and the finished blanket will not decompose, disintegrate, or lose structural integrity when submerged in water. The finished blanket comprises by weight: 60%-95% glass fiber 2%-30% hydrophobic flouropolymer, and non-decomposed hydrophilic opacifier.

Claim (Index 5):
The hydrophobic needle-felted insulation blanket of  claim 1 , wherein the non-decomposed hydrophilic opacifier comprises particles selected from the group consisting of: carbon black, graphite, graphene, titanium dioxide, iron oxides, silicon carbide, zirconium dioxide, and mixtures thereof; and wherein the opacifier comprises 0.1% to 10% of the finished blanket by weight.
