Carpet backings and use thereof in tufted carpets with good tuft bind and fuzz resistance and free of inorganic and latex materials are disclosed. Backings suitable as tuftable primary backings or as secondary backings have a nonwoven fabric with thermoplastic filaments and a thermoplastic supporting fabric operatively attached as by needling, thermal calendaring or point bonding.

Carpet construction and carpet backings for same

A barrier fence comprising a leno fabric woven from thermoplastic yarns, and a series of stripes of a thermoplastic resin in a warp direction integrally adhered to the leno fabric, having gaps therebetween, wherein the stripes adhered to the leno fabric have a Tensile Strength in the warp direction at least equal to or greater than that of the gaps.

End fabric woven fence

Self-bonded nonwoven web and woven fabic composites comprising at least one layer of a uniform basis weight self-bonded, fibrous nonwoven web comprising substantially randomly disposed, substantially continuous thermoplastic filaments adhered to at least one layer comprising woven thermoplastic yarns in the form of woven fabrics such as wall covering fabric, softside luggage fabric and leno weave fabric.

Self-bonded nonwoven web and woven fabric composites

A coating which can be easily applied as an aqueous emulsion or dispersion to woven polypropylene and which provides dimensional stability and soft hand, while avoiding excessive tackiness and blocking comprises: about 100 parts by weight of styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), wherein a styrene to butadiene ratio comprises 100 parts by weight of styrene to between about 66-180 parts by weight of butadiene, to between both about 10-100 parts by weight of wood rosin and about 1-18 parts by weight of an alkylaryl polyether alcohol having the formula: ##STR1## where: x is 12-20 and y is 8-10.
