摘要： A highly mobile, compact creel (20) that utilizes frames (22) for holding yarn packages (30) (or bobbins) for feeding yarn (33) to a tufting machine (58). Each frame (22) includes holders (60) affixed to the frame (22) for holding yarn packages (30) facing front (24) and back (26), a header (32) attachable to the frame (22) for directing yarn (33) from the yarn packages (30) to the tufting machine (58), and anti-static flexible tubing (50) for leading yarn (33) from the holders (60) to the header (32). The header (32) provides for aligning all the yarn ends in the same plane to join them to ends already threaded into the tufting machine (58). An optional frame overlay upright (81) having a ring (78) affixed thereto and strands (84) threaded through the ring (78) prevents yarn (33A) from upper yarn packages (30A) from falling onto tubes (6OB) holding lower yarn packages (30B) causing yarn entanglement.

摘要： The invention relates to a method for recovering nylon from a nylon-containing material by contacting the nylon-containing material with an alkanol-containing solvent at elevated temperature and at a pressure higher than the equilibrium pressure of the alkanol-containing solvent at the elevated temperature, thereby dissolving the nylon in the alkanol-containing solvent, removing the alkanol-containing solvent containing dissolved nylon from any undissolved solids, and decreasing the temperature of the alkanol-containing solvent containing dissolved nylon to precipitate the dissolved nylon.

摘要： Chemical compounds and methods for removing dye from polyester fibers, in particular poly(ethylene terephthalate) ('PET') fibers, is disclosed. The compounds and methods are particularly useful for removing dye from panel fabric made from recycled PET fibers. The method involves contacting the PET with a dye removal compound in a sealable vessel. The contents of the vessel are agitated and heated to achieve an increase in pressure and temperature. Following a cooling down period, the PET is removed and rinsed with water. The dye removal compound includes an aqueous solution of at least one leveling agent.
