Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a new chenille yarn and a method of making the same. The chenille yarn may be used on conventional weaving equipment, including air jet and water jet weaving machines, to produce simulated pile fabrics having superior abrasion resistance and improved hand. The present invention is also directed to a method of making fabrics containing the chenille yarn, and various uses for the fabrics, especially as residential upholstery fabrics, decorative throws, contract fabrics, automotive fabrics, and bedding fabrics for use in the home.
Abstract:
In a generally annular clutch facing comprising a fibrous substrate embedded in a matrix of a cross-linked polymeric binder, the improvement in which said fibrous substrate comprises 100 parts by weight of rock wool, from 10 to 50 parts by weight of organic fiber and from 5 to 50 parts by weight of glass fiber in the form of yarn, roving, strand or code, or in the form of fabric made of such yarn, roving, strand or code, and in a generally annular clutch facing comprising a fibrous substrate in the form of woven fabric embedded in a matrix of a cross-linked polymeric binder with warp yarns of the fabric extending circumferentially of the clutch facing, the improvement in which the warp yarns of the fabric contain glass fiber, and weft yarns of the fabric contain rock wool. The clutch facings according to the invention have great tensile strength, and do not suffer from a problem of judder which is felt by a driver as vibration during operation.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for the manufacture of fibrous yarn including the steps, where an aqueous suspension including fibers and at least one rheology modifier is provided, followed by directing the suspension through at least one nozzle, to form at least one yarn, and then dewatering the yarn.
Abstract:
Sealing Tapes adapted for bonding to a fabric laminated product are described herein. The sealing tapes exhibit a total cover factor of 1400 or less and exhibit a porous open structure having water resistance characteristics. In some embodiments, the sealing tape of the present invention comprises a base film and a woven fabric laminated on one side of the base film and an adhesive layer laminated on the other side of the base film.
Abstract:
A V-ribbed belt that includes a ribbed surface covered with fabric is provided. The fabric is stretchable in two predetermined directions. A method for manufacturing the V-ribbed belt is also provided. The method includes placing a belt matrix about a mandrel, placing a fabric about the external circumference of the belt matrix which wraps around the mandrel, placing the mandrel inside a shell having a plurality of grooves on the internal circumference, expanding the belt matrix and the fabric toward the internal circumference of the shell and thus pressing the fabric onto the internal circumference having the multi-ribbed structure, and curing the belt matrix with the fabric. The fabric is stretchable to accommodate itself to the multi-ribbed structure.
Abstract:
A garniture tape for forming cigarettes and/or filters. The garniture tape having at least one warp thread and having a plurality of weft threads. The at least one warp thread has at least one liquid crystal polymer thread and at least one further thread which has greater roughness than the liquid crystal polymer thread.
Abstract:
The present invention relates generally to substrates that exhibit useful, auto adaptable surface energy properties that depend on the environment of the substrate. Such surface energy properties provide relatively high advancing and receding contact angles for liquids when in contact with the target substrate surface. The substrates exhibit low surface energy quantities of at most about 20 millijoules per square meter (mJ/m2) at a temperature of about 25 degrees C. and a surface energy greater than about 20 mJ/m2 at, or with exposure to, a temperature of about 40 degrees C. More specifically, encompassed within the present invention are textile substrates having this highly desirable unique surface energy modification property and which exhibit wash durable oil and water repellency and stain release features. Novel compositions and formulations that impart such surface energy modifications to substrates are also encompassed within this invention, as well as methods for producing such treated substrates.
