Zusammenfassung:The present invention provides a composite material ( 26 ) including a substrate layer ( 27 ), a porous layer ( 28 ) intermixed within the substrate material ( 27 ), and a thermoplastic layer ( 29 ) disposed upon the porous layer. The porous layer ( 28 ) is at least partially disposed within the thermoplastic layer ( 29 ). The present invention also provides a method for forming the composite material including the steps of: providing a substrate layer, providing a porous layer disposed on the substrate layer, providing a thermoplastic layer disposed on the porous layer, applying pressure and vacuum to mechanically interlock the thermoplastic layer with the porous layer; and bonding the porous layer to the substrate layer.
