Abstract
Abstract Composite material composed of (a) a plasticized PVC substrate, if appropriate a fabric coated with plasticized PVC, and (b) a top layer composed of (b1) 5 to 100% by weight of a mixture of an acrylic resin and plasticized PVC, and (b2) 0 to 95% by weight of a fluorine-containing copolymer formed from vinylidene fluoride, hexafluoropropylene, tetrafluoroethylene and, if appropriate, a further fluoroolefin or fluoroalkyl vinyl ether, wherein, if the content of (b1) in (b) is 0 to 15% by weight, a sealing layer composed of the fluorine-containing copolymer (b2) is also applied to the top layer. The composite material is particularly suitable for structural units belonging to the field of textile construction.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
200 words
A composite material which comprises (a) a substrate layer composed essentially of plasticized polyvinyl chloride, and (b) a top layer, applied to one or both sides of this substrate layer and composed of: (b 1 ) 5 to 100% by weight of a mixture of acrylic resins composed of 5 to 60% by weight of plasticized polyvinyl chloride or an internally plasticized copolymer of vinyl chloride and--to bring the total up to 100% by weight, --an acrylic resin, and (b 2 ) 0 to 95% by weight of a fluorine-containing copolymer containing 50 to 20% by weight of copolymerized units of vinylidene fluoride, 10 to 30% by weight of copolymerized units of hexafluoropropylene and copolymerized units of tetrafluoroethylene, the proportion of the latter being at least 30% by weight in the copolymer, and copolymerized units of another fluoroolefin or fluoroalky vinyl ether in an amount of 0 to 5% by weight, subject to the proviso that, if the content of the fluorine-containing copolymer (b 2 ) in the top layer is 0 to 15% by weight, there is also provided, on the latter, (c) a sealing layer which is solely composed of the fluorine-containing copolymer defined under (b 2 ).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
