Abstract

The invention relates to a curtain providing a barrier against light, noise, heat, fire and electromagnetic radiations. The curtain comprises two textile layers, each having a combination of non-woven textile material and woven textile material, subjected to a fire-proofing treatment; an inner layer sandwiched between the textile layers and formed by sound insulation wool; and a cover layer adjacent to the outer side of one of the textile layers, formed by a metal selected from the group consisting of aluminum and copper. The curtain as a whole has a total thickness between 0.5 cm and 3 cm.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A curtain providing a barrier against light, noise, heat, fire and electromagnetic radiations, comprising:
two textile layers each having a combination of non-woven textile material and woven textile material, subjected to a fire-proofing treatment;
an inner layer sandwiched between the textile layers, formed by sound insulation wool; and
a cover layer adjacent to the outer side of one of the textile layers, formed by a metal selected from the group consisting of aluminum and copper; where the curtain has a total thickness between 0.5 cm and 3 cm.

2. The curtain according to claim 1 , characterized in that the curtain has a total thickness of 1 cm.

3. The curtain according to claim 1 , characterized in that the curtain has a total weight of 1 kg/m 2 .

4. The curtain according to claim 1 , characterized in that the non-woven textile material is felt.

5. The curtain according to claim 4 , characterized in that the thickness of the felt is from 3 mm to 20 mm.

6. The curtain according to claim 4 , characterized in that the felt has a density of 15 kg/m 3 to 40 kg/m 3 .

7. The curtain according to claim 1 , characterized in that the woven textile material has a density of 100 g/m 2 to 300 g/m2.

8. The curtain according to claim 1 , characterized in that the fire-proofing treatment is performed by means of covering the textile layer with a material selected from polyvinyl chloride, tetrakis(hydroxymethyl)phosphonium salt, diammonium phosphate/ammonium sulfate/boron compound, hexapropoxyphosphazene, oligomeric phosphate and thiourea/titanium and zirconium compound/dibromoterephthalic acid.

9. The curtain according to claim 1 , characterized in that the textile layer furthermore is subjected to at least one treatment selected from a water-proofing treatment and an oil-proofing treatment.

10. The curtain according to claim 1 , characterized in that the textile layer is made of fibers selected from the group consisting of cotton, linen, polypropylene, polyester, jute, polyamide, rayon, nylon, PVC and combinations thereof.

11. The curtain according to claim 1 , characterized in that the inner layer ( 12 ) is formed by polyester wool.

12. The curtain according to claim 1 , characterized in that the inner layer ( 12 ) is formed by wool comprising at least 80% of a compound selected from the group comprising PP, PES and PET.

13. The curtain according to claim 1 , characterized in that the inner layer has a thickness between 3 mm and 1 cm.

14. The curtain according to claim 1 , characterized in that the inner layer has a density between 10 kg/m 3 and 50 kg/m 3 .

15. The curtain according to claim 1 , characterized in that the cover layer has a thickness between 0.5 mm and 5 mm.

16. The curtain according to claim 1 characterized in that the inner cover layer furthermore has a glass fiber mesh reinforcement.

17. The curtain according to claim 1 , characterized in that it comprises a second inner layer, identical to the inner layer, sandwiched between the textile layer and the cover layer adjacent thereto.
