Abstract:
Tufted or woven article having a unitary backing is prepared by applying to the underside of a tufted or woven textile article, a polyurethane-forming composition comprising(A) a relatively high molecular weight polyether polyol;(B) a relatively low molecular weight polyol;(C) an organic polyisocyanate or polyisothiocyanate;(D) an inorganic filler component.The present invention describes a carpet comprising (I) a primary backing; (II) a yarn tufted or woven through said primary backing thereby creating a yarn bundle on the underside of the resultant tufted or woven textile article and (III) a polyurethane composition applied to the underside thereby encapsulating the yarn bundles and adhering the yarn bundles to the primary backing; said polyurethane composition comprising the catalyzed reaction product of the composition described above.
Abstract:
Polymeric blends comprising a rubber latex and large particle size solid polyvinyl chloride resin provide good tuft lock in tufted carpets and enhance flame retardancy of same. The blend is applied to the carpet and dried at an elevated temperature below the flux temperature of the polyvinyl chloride resin.
Abstract:
A FLAME-RESISTANT TEXTILE ARTICLE COMPRISING FILAMENTS, STAPLE FIBERS OR YARNS FROM NATURAL AND/OR SYNTHETIC MATERIAL AND A HOMOGENEOUS MIXTURE CONSISTING OF A HALOGEN PHOSPHORIC ACID ESTERS, A PHOSPHORUS-CONTAINING PLASTICIZING AGENT, A POLYALKYL HALIDE, ANTIMONY OXIDE AND A POLYURETHANE.
Abstract:
A method for providing a textile product includes the steps of providing yarns, contacting the yarns with a support material to form an intermediate product and bonding the yarns to the support material to form the textile product, wherein the bonding takes place by providing a reactive nucleus precursor at a site where the yarns contact the support material, and converting the precursor into a compound having multiple reactive nuclei in the presence of a compound having multiple nucleophilic groups, as well as a textile product obtainable by the method, uses of that product and lignin for use in producing such a textile product.
Abstract:
A process for making a Drylon rug is disclosed, wherein the said process comprises use of dope dyed, micro-denier filament, cabled and heat set polyester yarn or micro denier filament, cabled heat set dyed with antimicrobial treatment for tufting of rugs, thereby eliminating the process of batch dyeing after the formation of rugs and further ensuring that the rugs are bleach safe, quick drying, anti microbial and stain resistant. The present invention also discloses Drylon rugs as manufactured using yarns of invention. Further, the present invention discloses the process for manufacture of Drylon yarns.
Abstract:
A process for forming a carpet, and the carpet formed thereby are provided. The process includes forming a thread comprising low melt fiber and high melt fiber. The thread is then heated above a temperature sufficient to melt the low melt fiber. The thread is tufted in a carpet backing to form a tufted carpet. The tufted carpet is then printed or dyed with an image. A process for forming a low melt content yarn and the yarn formed thereby are provided.
