The poncho liners is a light weight polyester fill camo blanket designed to tie into a military style poncho so you can use the poncho as a sleeping bag. It can also be used alone in warm weather or used inside a real sleeping/bivvy bag when colder.
The typical polyester fiber batting used for the liners was almost high-tech back in the early 60s but it is old hat now. I've found that making my own liner using a good quality poly-fleece blanket gives me a more useful product. It feels and hangs better. Weight is about the same. But the warmth and adaptability are improved.
