Abstract:
Disclosed is a polyurethane elastic yarn which is excellent in elongation, resilience, heat resistance, alkali resistance, chemical resistance, and capability of being dyed with a cationic dye and which is suitable for use in a stretch cloth, a wearing apparel or the like. The polyurethane elastic yarn comprises: an clastic yarn comprising a polyurethane mainly composed of a polymer diol and a diisocyanate, and a polymer of a compound having a sulfonate group contained in the elastic yarn.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a process for the preparation of polyamide polymers via prepolymer formation in a reactor system comprising a reactor, flasher and separator, crystallization of the prepolymer under controlled temperature conditions and the subsequent conversion of these crystallized prepolymers to high molecular weight polymer.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure include flame retardant composites, flame retardant nylon fibers, flame retardant nylon fiber carpets, methods of making each, and the like.
Abstract:
A body-shaping garment (1) and fabric is provided. The garment includes an inner fabric (4) layer and an outer fabric layer (6). The inner fabric layer is placed in an angular orientation relative to the outer fabric layer. Further, the inner fabric layer and the outer fabric layer have sufficiently isotropic hysteresis.
Abstract:
Dyed yarns typically have inferior color fastness compared with pigmented yarns. However, dyeing offers a virtually infinite selection of colors, flexibility and more uniformity than constructions of pigmented yarns in residential carpet and other yarn applications, such as apparel. It has been found that relatively small amounts of pigment (10 to 1000 ppm) incorporated into polymeric fibers, and particularly nylon fibers used in carpets, creates lightly pigmented yarns which, when overdyed, are highly uniform and have a higher degree of apparent dye light fastness compared to normal dyed yarns. This effect is observable for both anionic and cationic polyamide polymers, and dyeing of these slightly pigmented yarns can be conducted to produce yarns of almost any color of greater depth than the base yarn.

Abstract:
A process for making a compound of Formula (I) by oxidative coupling of a compound of the formula (11) in the presence of a molecular oxygen-containing gas and a copper-containing catalyst produced by contacting a copper halide salt with an organic diamine compound. Some compounds of the formula (I) are also claimed.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for unwinding yams with: (1) a drive roll with a polished metal finish to ensure good fiber/metal contact; (2) a drive roll/separator roll combination that enables multiple wraps of yam on the drive roll; (3) pivoting yarn holding arms for the active and standby packages that provide for easier access to the packages on a frame; and (4) in combination with the pivoting yarn holding arms, one or more pivoting legs extending from a frame so that the apparatus has a relatively small footprint and simplified yarn threading/string-up as compared to background art OETO apparatus.
