Abstract:
A method for folding a fastener during a high speed manufacturing process and maintaining the fastener in a folded configuration throughout the high speed manufacturing process. The method includes obtaining an article that has a foldable fastener and moving the article in the machine direction during the high speed manufacturing process. The foldable fastener has first and second opposing surfaces, a web and at least one engaging member joined to the web. The method includes applying a frangible bonding agent to a first portion of the first surface of the fastening system; folding the fastening system such that the frangible bonding agent contacts a second portion of the first surface of the fastening system; and allowing the frangible bonding agent to cool at a temperature of less than 60°C.
Abstract:
A tufted carpet is provided having a primary backing with yarn comprised of at least 85% by weight of fibers selected from the group nylon fibers, wool fibers, and blends thereof. A polymer adhesive is applied to the back side of the tufted primary backing, which adhesive consists of at least 85% by weight of one or more ethylene copolymers each comprised of 50 to 95 weight % of ethylene, and 5-50 weight % of at least one comonomer selected from the group of esters and carboxylic acids. The polymer adhesive has a melt index greater than 150 and a tenacity at room temperature of at least 5 Mpa. A secondary backing is adhered to the back side of the primary backing. Preferred comonomers in the ethylene copolymer adhesive include vinyl acetate, butyl acrylate, methyl acrylate, methacrylic acid, and acrylic acid. A process for making the tufted carpet of the invention is also provided.
Abstract:
The invention comprises a product. The product comprises a foam insulating panel having a first primary surface and an opposite second primary surface and a laminated fabric attached to the first primary surface of the foam insulating panel. The laminated fabric is impregnated with an air-resistant, water-resistant, vapor permeable, elastomeric polymeric material, wherein the air-resistant, water-resistant, vapor permeable elastomeric polymeric material has an elongation factor of greater than 100%, a water vapor transmission rating of at least 0.1 perm and an air permeance of less than 0.004 cfm/sq. ft. under a pressure differential of 0.3 inches of water, whereby the air-resistant, water-resistant, vapor permeable elastomeric polymeric material provides a water-resistant, vapor permeable air barrier. The laminated fabric comprises a woven or nonwoven carrier portion and a woven or nonwoven reinforcing portion attached to the carrier portion. A method of making a composite sheathing panel is also disclosed.
Abstract:
A method of preparing a laminate that includes the steps of (a) introducing a first substrate having first and second surfaces and supported at two or more points into a lamination zone located between two of the support points (the first substrate being unsupported throughout the lamination zone); and (b) introducing a second substrate having first and second surfaces into the lamination zone (the second substrate passing around a lamination bar to position the first surfaces of the substrates in a facing relationship with each other). At least one of the first surfaces is provided with coating which is most preferably a solvent-free polymerization coating. Next, in step (c), the lamination bar is depressed to laminate the second substrate to the first substrate.
Abstract:
A process for producing a web-like covering material (5) from a concentrated mixture of rubber components, especially rubber waste, using an endless travelling conveyor belt (1) on which is applied the layer of an already-reacted mixture of reduced rubber waste and/or granulated rubber of new or old rubber with a PU binder as the solvent-free one-component binder and mineral materials like quartz sand, gravel, chippings and/or granulates, fibres or flour of polyurethane, PVC, polypropylene, polyamide, polyethylene, foam flakes, agglomerates, cork, timber or similar primary or recycled secondary plastics and the mixture is then concentrated and cured under the effect of heat.
Abstract:
제1열가소성 수지 필름을 가열된 무단 벨트에 서로 겹쳐 제1열가소성 수지 필름을 이 벨트와 함게 이동시키고, 제2열가소성 수지 필름을 벨트위의 제1열가소성 수지 필름에 서로 겹쳐 적층하며, 벨트위에서 적층된 제1 및 제2열가소성 수지 필름을 벨트와 제2로울러로써 압접(壓接)한다. 그리고 제2열가소성 수지 필름을 제2로울러와 접촉시켜 벨트위의 제1열가소성 수지 필름에다 서로 겹쳐 적층하여도 좋다. 이 적층 열가소성 수지 필름을 열성형하여 열성형품을 제조한다.
Abstract:
Provided is a lamination device that laminates an electrolyte film and a porous film. The lamination device includes a support portion configured to support a porous film roll, in which the porous film is wound, such that the porous film roll is able to revolve, an unwinding portion configured to support an electrolyte film roll, in which the electrolyte film is wound, and unwind the electrolyte film from the electrolyte film roll, a conveying portion configured to convey the unwound electrolyte film, and a control portion configured to control the support portion, the unwinding portion, and the conveying portion. The control portion is configured to control the support portion such that the conveyed electrolyte film and the porous film roll are brought closer to one another and an outer peripheral surface of the porous film roll is pressed against one of surfaces of the electrolyte film.
