	What is Tyvek® (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		Tyvek® is formed by a fully integrated process using continuous and very fine fibers of 100 percent high-density polyethylene that are randomly distributed and nondirectional.
		Tyvek® soft structure is designed specifically for those textile applications where drape, hand and soft feel are of prime importance, such as limited-use protective garments.
		One of the most popular and widely known applications of Tyvek® is in the construction industry, where it is used to increase air and water resistance, helping to lower heating and cooling costs in buildings and providing better protection against water and moisture intrusion.

		Tyvek® Soft Structure is part of a family of tough, durable sheet products used in a variety of applications.
		Tyvek® style 1622E is pin perforated with 10-15 mil (0.25mm-.038mm) holes, giving it much higher air and moisture permeability, additional softness, and greater flexibility and drape than the above Type 14 styles, at the expense of lower tear strength and barrier properties.
		Tyvek® is slippery and should not be used in applications where it is walked upon.

	Andy's Tyvek® Page
		Standard Tyvek® HomeWrap® is white in color (the pink you see on my Home Page is from the camera flash) and has DuPont® and Tyvek® advertising on one side of the material, including a web-address, phone number, etc. The other side of the material is white.
		As one side of the Tyvek® is white (blank), it is perfect for use as your personal canvass.
		While you could use Tyvek® for tarps, the problem is that it is an extremely "loud" material, meaning that, when pitched, a strong wind hitting your tarp would make a sound not unlike someone doing a roll on a snare drum.

	(Medical Focus) Are The New Tyvek 2FS and Peelable Resin Films For You? (PMPN archive, Jul 99)
		The first new style of Tyvek for medical packaging in 15 years, along with new companion films designed to seal to its uncoated form, is a windfall for medical device manufacturers, who may reduce the cost of packaging by as much as 40% by converting from traditional packaging.
		Tyvek 2FS, which is half the weight of paper and stronger than the heaviest grades of medical papers, also generates far fewer airborne particulates.
		When a traditional package marrying a formable film to coated Tyvek is peeled, some of the adhesive coating remains on the Tyvek, and some is transferred to the film, where it is visible as a white area of transfer.
