Abstract:
A hot press cushioning material (10) of the present invention includes, as a base material, a woven fabric layer (11) using bulky yarn (12) as at least one of the warp and weft, and a nonwoven fabric layer (14) placed on one surface side of the woven fabric layer (11), a part of the nonwoven fabric layer (14) being embedded in the woven fabric layer (11). A nonwoven fabric-resin composite layer (18) is formed in the opposite surface of the nonwoven fabric layer (14) from the woven fabric layer (11) by impregnation with resin (15). A woven fabric-rubber composite layer (19) is formed in the other surface of the woven fabric layer (11) by impregnation with rubber (16). The nonwoven fabric-resin composite layer (18) and the woven fabric-rubber composite layer (19) have voids (17) therein.
Abstract:
A laminated material for clothing comprises at least three layers of flexible elastic material, the first, outer, layer comprising a material with a plush surface having a multitude of mini-loops for forming a hook and loop connection with a material, which does not form part of the material of the invention, having a surface having a multitude of mini-hooks, the middle layer being of an elastomeric material and the third, inner, layer being of a non-allergenic elastic material, wherein the material is omnidirectionally stretchable and the strength of the material is such appropriate weighty articles can be attached to the outer surface of a garment made from the material without dragging the garment out of shape, and has moisture wicking and antimicrobial properties, is non-allergenic and has no undesirable skin effects and at least one layer is perforated.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a composite panel with a thermosetting cellular matrix, to a method for manufacturing said panel, and to a structure for covering a wall that is formed from an assembly of such panels. Said structure provides the wall with heat insulation against cryogenic fluids and/or protection against fire or flames and/or sealing against said fluids. A panel according to the invention, having a thermosetting cellular matrix (9), comprises at least one substrate (1) that includes short, non-woven basalt fibers (2a, 3a, 4a, 5a) and is impregnated by said matrix. The panel is such that the at least one substrate includes a plurality of non-woven layers (2, 3, 4, 5) stacked to a stacking thickness (e). The non-woven layers each comprise the short basalt fibers and are needled through said thickness without using thermoplastic fibers.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an article comprising a main body (6, 7, 8) that consists of a polymer material having elastic properties, particularly an air spring bellows (2), a metal-rubber element or a vibration damper. In order for fire-retardant properties to be improved, the article is provided, partially or fully, with a cover (9) formed from at least one flat textile structure and/or at least one three-dimensional textile structure and/or at least one shrink film. The cover can be fire-retardant itself or can be equipped to be fire-retardant.
Abstract:
A sound barrier comprises a substantially periodic array of structures disposed in a first medium having a first density, the structures being made of a second medium having a second density different from the first density, wherein one of the first and second media is a porous medium other than a porous metal, the porous medium having a porosity of at least about 0.02, and wherein the other of the first and second media is a viscoelastic or elastic medium.
Abstract:
Provided is a stretchable laminate excellent in oil resistance. Also provided is an article including such stretchable laminate. The stretchable laminate of the present invention includes: an elastomer layer; and a non-woven fabric layer arranged on at least one side of the elastomer layer, inwhich: the elastomer layer includes a plurality of layers; and at least one outer layer of the plurality of layers contains an olefin-based elastomer.
Abstract:
A method of and system for adhesive bonding. The method and system a) treat a surface of an element to be bonded to provide an adherent structure including one or more rubber compounds on the surface; b) place a polymerizable adhesive composition, including at least one photoinitiator and at least one energy converting material, in contact with the adherent structure and two or more components to be bonded to form an assembly, c) irradiated the assembly with radiation at a first wavelength, capable of conversion by the at least one energy converting material, to a second wavelength capable of activating the at least one photoinitiator to produce from the polymerizable adhesive composition a cured adhesive composition; and d) adhesively join the two or more components by way of the adherent structure and the cured adhesive composition.
Abstract:
A nonwoven substrate comprising a polyolefin and an engineering thermoplastic polymer. The engineering thermoplastic polymer may be present in the nonwoven substrate at a level of between about 1% and about 20% by weight of the nonwoven substrate. The layer of fibers is free of a compatibilizer.
