Abstract:
{Problem} To provide a polyurethane elastic yarn which has the high strength and ductility sought in polyurethane elastic yarn, and also has excellent durability and heat resistance, as well as little fatigue at low temperature; and a production method thereof. {Means of Resolution} A polyurethane elastic yarn made from polyurethane which has polymer diol and diisocyanate as starting substances, wherein said polyurethane comprises a polyurethane A containing a polybutadiene structure in which the proportion of 1,2-bonded butadiene structure to 1,4-bonded butadiene structure in the molecule is in the range from 91:9 to 20:80.
Abstract:
A synthetic polymer composition comprising a blend of a synthetic thermoplastic polymer and a polymer containing a polyether chain as a constituent, wherein the article manufactured from the blend contains an active compound is disclosed. Yarns may be formed from the synthetic polymer blend and then knitted or woven into articles, such as net or fabric. The articles may be treated with active compounds such as a perfume, fabric softener, sunscreen agent, antibacterial agent, pesticide, insecticide and such other compounds that provide functionality on the article. The treated articles of the invention retain more than an effective amount of active compounds even after numerous washings.
Abstract:
This invention relates to polyester compositions useful for the manufacturing containers that minimizes the effect of secondary contamination during filling. More specifically, the present invention relates to a polyester bottle for use in filling of carbonated pasteurized products comprising at least one oxygen scavenging component that limits oxygen ingress to about 1 ppm or less when measured six months after filling, and at least one passive component that limits the carbonation loss to less than about 25 % when measured six months after filing. The present invention also relates to a method of using the polyester bottle to minimize the growth of secondary contaminants in a carbonated pasteurized product.
Abstract:
A process for making 3-aminopentanenitrile from a crude 2-pentenenitrile ("crude 2PN") comprising 2-pentenenitrile, 2-methyl-2-butenenitrile, and 2-methyl-3-butenenitrile includes contacting the crude 2PN with an ammonia-containing fluid and water. The ammonia-containing fluid can include at least one reactant selected from the group consisting of ammonia, aqueous ammonia, and ammonium hydroxide.
Abstract:
Briefly described, embodiments of this disclosure include close-couple twisting and heat-setting apparatus, methods of twisting yarn and heat-setting twisted yarn, and the like.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a polyester composition comprising a diacid component and a diol component, wherein the diacid component comprises: i) isophthalic acid present at a concentration in the range of from about 23 mole % to about 30 mole % of the total diacid, and ii) terephthalic acid; and wherein the diol component comprises: i) diethylene glycol present at a concentration in the range of from about 1.1 mole % to about 3.5 mole % of the total diol, and ii) ethylene glycol. Other embodiments of the present invention include a film produced from the polyester composition and processes for producing the film.
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.
