Abstract
A 3D hand-shaped glove includes a performance-enhancing layer laminated to a fabric glove shell. A flat, solid laminate preform can be prepared with printed graphics, fabric layers, oriented films, dense and/or concentrated fillers, and other features. The 3D hand-shaped glove shell is placed on a 3D laminating form, and the preform is laminated thereto while preserving the 3D shape. In embodiments, the laminating form includes opposing flat surfaces, and a platen or roller press is used. In other embodiments, a bladder or vacuum bag press is used to laminate the preform to a curved or otherwise shaped surface of the laminating form. In embodiments, edge peel resistance is enhanced by extending the perimeter of a low modulus upper layer beyond underlying layers and bonding it directly to the glove shell. Recovery of the glove shell after deformation by the laminating form can provide a warping deformation of the laminate preform.
