摘要:
Disclosed is a method for molding a foamed article, such as a midsole or outsole for footwear, in which a desired amount of thermoplastic polyurethane foam beads are placed in a compression mold in the shape of the article and the mold is brought to a peak temperature of from about 130° C. to about 180° C. over a period of from about 300 to about 1500 seconds, then cooled to from about 5° C. to about 80° C. over a period of from about 300 to about 1500 seconds within about 30 seconds after the peak temperature is reached. The foamed article made by the method has a density of from about 0.1 to about 0.45 g/cm3.

An outsole (112), an article of footwear (100) comprising the outsole (112), and a method of manufacturing the article of footwear (100), the outsole (112) comprising: a first surface (162) of the outsole (112) configured to be ground-facing; and a second surface of the outsole (112) opposing the first surface (162), the outsole (112) configured to be secured to an upper (110) for an article of footwear (100); wherein the outsole (112) comprises a material (116) defining at least a portion of the first surface (162), and the material (116) compositionally comprises a hydrogel, wherein the material has a water uptake rate greater than 20 g/(m 2 ×min 0.5 ) or ranging from 1 g/(m 2 x min 0.5 ) to 1500 g/(m 2 x min 0.5 ), as characterized by the Water Uptake Rate Test with the Footwear Sampling Procedure; and/or has a swell thickness increase at 1 hour greater than 20%, as characterize by the Swelling Capacity Test with the Footwear Sampling Procedure.
摘要:
An article, comprising a component (120) formed of a plurality of affixed foam particles. The component (120) comprises a plurality of sub-regions (121a, 121b, 121c, 122, 123) comprising differentially affixed foam particles, or a gradient of differentially affixed foam particles. A surface of the component (120) includes a portion of foam particles (123) that are embossed or debossed. Also a method of forming a component (12) of an article, comprising decorating, including embossing/debossing, a portion of a plurality of foam particles; arranging the plurality of foam particles by depositing a layer comprising the plurality of foam particles; and affixing arranged foam particles within a portion of the layer of the plurality of foam particles. The arranging and affixing are carried out for two or more iterations and the component is formed layer-wise from a plurality of layers of arranged and affixed foam particles.

摘要:
A method of making an article of footwear may include providing a last shaped to resemble a human foot. The method may also include forming at least one footwear component at least in part from a susceptor material that is thermally reactive to an electromagnetic field. The method may further include covering at least a portion of the last with two or more footwear components, wherein the two or more footwear components includes the at least one footwear component formed at least in part from a susceptor material. In addition, the method may include applying an electromagnetic field to the susceptor material, causing induction heating of the susceptor material and joining the two or more footwear components by melding the two or more components with the induction heating.

摘要:
The disclosure relates to articles of footwear (100) and components thereof including a surface element (116) comprising a dispersion. When present on an outsole (112), the surface element (116) forms or is present at a ground facing surface of the outsole (112). The dispersion of the surface element (116) compositionally includes a first polymeric phase and a second phase. The outsoles (112) can prevent or reduce the accumulation of soil on the footwear (100) during wear on unpaved surfaces such as sporting fields.
