Abstract:
Woven fabrics are formed from high tenacity fibers or tapes that are loosely interwoven with adhesive coated filaments, to composite articles formed therefrom, and to a continuous process for forming the composite articles.

Claim (Index 18):
A process for forming a closed, thermally fused multilayer article comprising:\n a) providing an open woven fabric comprising high tenacity elongate bodies interwoven and bonded with transversely disposed binding elongate bodies, said high tenacity elongate bodies comprising a thermoplastic polymer, having a tenacity of at least about 14 g/denier and having a tensile modulus of at least about 300 g/denier, wherein adjacent high tenacity elongate bodies are spaced apart from each other by a distance equivalent to at least about 10% of the width of the high tenacity elongate bodies; and wherein said binding elongate bodies at least partially comprise a thermoplastic polymer having a melting temperature below a melting temperature of the high tenacity elongate bodies; b) providing a closed, fused sheet formed from a woven fabric, said open fabric comprising high tenacity elongate bodies interwoven and bonded with transversely disposed binding elongate bodies, said high tenacity elongate bodies comprising a thermoplastic polymer, having a tenacity of at least about 14 g/denier and having a tensile modulus of at least about 300 g/denier, wherein said binding elongate bodies at least partially comprise a thermoplastic polymer having a melting temperature below a melting temperature of the high tenacity elongate bodies, wherein the closed, fused sheet has substantially no gaps between adjacent high tenacity elongate bodies and wherein said adjacent high tenacity elongate bodies do not overlap; c) adjoining the open woven fabric and the closed, fused sheet together wherein the high tenacity elongate bodies of the first fabric are oriented at a non-parallel angle relative to the high tenacity elongate bodies of the second fabric; and d) thermally pressing the adjoined woven fabric and fused sheet together under conditions sufficient to attach the woven fabric to the fused sheet and to flatten the high tenacity elongate bodies in the woven fabric, thereby causing the longitudinal edges of the adjacent high tenacity elongate bodies in the woven fabric to contact each other, whereby there are substantially no gaps between said adjacent high tenacity elongate bodies and wherein said adjacent high tenacity elongate bodies do not overlap.
