T
HE padding in that new car door panel? Chances are g o o d that it's acetate staple b o n d e d permanently together and made springy by Hycar latex. In this impregnated textile appli cation, Hycar 1577 and Hycar 1561 p r o v i d e strength, soft give and secure heat-sealed laminations of vinyl upholstery, staple and panel b o a r d . M o r e g o o d r e a s o n s for Hycar's use here —it withstands m o i s t u r e ; resists mold, m i l d e w , fungi, insects; and does not discolor the vinyl.
Versatile Hycar latices are out standing bonding media for other textile fibers, too: nylon, rayon, cot t o n wool and many fiber combina tions. They produce non-woven fabrics having good hand, rumple and mat-resistance, g o o d crease recovery, washability and excep tional resistance to solvents and dry cleaning fluids. New uses for non-woven fibers bonded by Hycar are born almost every day. Examples include garment inner linings, simulated chamois and washcloths. For information on
