Abstract
A polymeric sheet having excellent cut-resistance contains: (A) a polymeric material, and (B) a hard filler distributed in the polymeric material, the hard filler having a Mohs hardness value of at least about 3.0, the hard filler being in the form of particles having an average diameter sufficient to provide cut-resistance properties to the polymeric material but which is no more than about 5 microns. The cut-resistant sheet may be in the form of a conventional sheet, a film, a coating, a composite and the like, and may be used to form cut-resistance articles such as, e.g., protective garments and tires. The cut-resistant sheet may also be laminated onto a textile fabric to form a composite from which articles, e.g., garments, can be formed.
