Articles, including fabrics and film layers, are disclosed which can protect against multiple hazards, including radiation, chemical, biological agents, metal projectiles and fire hazards. In some embodiments, the fabrics and films of the present invention are used to produce garments having protection against multiple hazards and superior heat dissipating properties. A radiation protective compound is preferably created by mixing a radiopaque material, such as barium, bismuth, tungsten or their compounds, with powdered polymer, pelletized polymer or a liquid solution, emulsion or suspension of a polymer in solvent or water. This radiation protective mixture can then be laminated or otherwise adhered to other types of protective films or fabric, such as the protective polymer films or fabrics used for chemical protective garments, biological protective garments, bullet proof vests or fire retardant garments. The principles of this invention can also be applied to a broad range of other articles including surgical hoods, hospital gowns, gloves, patient drapes, partitions, coverings, jumpsuits, ponchos, uniforms, fatigues, tents, probes, envelopes, pouches, wallpaper, liners, drywall, house sidings, house foundations, house roofings etc.
本发明所公开的物品,包括织物和薄膜层,可抵御多种危害,包括辐射、
化学、
生物制剂、
金属射弹和火灾危害。在某些实施例中,本发明的织物和薄膜可用于生产具有多种危害防护功能和优异散热性能的服装。辐射防护混合物最好是通过将不透射线材料(如
钡、
铋、
钨或其化合物)与粉末状聚合物、颗粒状聚合物或聚合物在溶剂或
水中的液态溶液、乳液或悬浮液混合制成。这种防辐射混合物可与其他类型的保护膜或织物,如用于
化学防护服、
生物防护服、防弹背心或阻燃服的聚合物保护膜或织物进行层压或粘合。本发明的原理还可广泛应用于其他物品,包括外科头罩、病号服、手套、病人帘布、隔板、覆盖物、连体服、披风、制服、疲劳服、帐篷、探针、信封、小袋、墙纸、衬里、干墙、房屋侧墙、房屋地基、房屋屋顶等。
