A composite structure for a protective garment, such as a pair of bunker
pants for a firefighter, a bunker coat for a firefighter, or a glove for a
firefighter,
has a moisture absorber, a moisture barrier disposed outwardly in relation to
the
moisture absorber, and an outer shell disposed outwardly in relation to the
moisture barrier. The moisture absorber has a fibrous matrix incorporating a
superabsorbent polymer, as particles or as fibers, and is disposed between an
inner
cover pervious to moisture and an outer cover. The inner and outer covers may
be
quilted so as to segregate discrete regions of the fibrous matrix. In one
contemplated embodiment, the moisture barrier is affixed to the outer. In
another
contemplated embodiment, the the moisture barrier is affixed to the outer
cover of
the moisture absorber. In other contemplated embodiments, a thermally
insulative
layer comprising an inner cover, an outer cover, and a filler disposed between
the
inner and outer covers, which may be quilted, is interposed between the
moisture
absorber and the moisture barrier.
Une structure composite destinée à la fabrication de vêtements protecteurs, par exemple des pantalons de feu pour les pompiers, des imperméables de feu pour les pompiers, ou des gants pour les pompiers, possède un absorbeur d'humidité, une barrière contre l'humidité par-dessus l'absorbeur, et une coquille externe par-dessus la barrière contre l'humidité. L'absorbeur d'humidité possède une matrice fibreuse renfermant un polymère superabsorbant, sous forme de particules ou de fibres, et il est placé entre une couche interne perméable à l'humidité et une couche externe. Les couches interne et externe peuvent être piquées de manière à ce que certaines zones de la matrice fibreuse soient isolées. Dans l'une des applications envisagées, la barrière contre l'humidité est fixée sur la couche externe. Dans une autre application envisagée, la barrière contre l'humidité est fixée sur la face externe de l'absorbeur d'humidité. Dans d'autres applications envisagées, une couche thermo-isolante comportant un revêtement interne, un revêtement externe, et une garniture entre les deux, laquelle peut être piquée, s'interpose entre l'absorbeur d'humidité et la barrière contre l'humidité.
