Thermoplastic, thermoshapable composite laminate bars, an orthopedic brace using the shaped composite bars as integral components, and a method of thermoshaping the composite bars for use as fitted components in the orthopedic brace are provided. The composite bars contain multiple fiber layers oriented in at least two directions with respect to the bar length to provide high flexural and torsional strength. The novel method of thermoshaping yields improved results over prior thermoshaping methods by providing an uncomplicated shaping capability while maintaining the structural and mechanical properties of the composite bar.

An elongate composite structural member and method of making the same which is particularly useful for forming the handle of hand-held striking and prying tools or implements. The elongate structure member comprises a foamed in place molded resin composition core and outer skin layer which is reinforced with intermediate layer of structurally strong, unidirectional oriented fibers. The expanded foam resin, intermediate fiber layer and the expanded foam resin outer skin are bound together by the cured foamed resin composition formed during the molding process to form a strong, integral composite structure.

An improved stuffer box used for crimping textile fibers, particularly fibrillated polyolefin films. The width of the stuffer box is related to the linear density of the fiber bundles to be crimped whereby there is one millemeter of width for each fiber bunder size in the range of from about 200 to about 750 denier. Pressure controlled hinged lid or fixed lid exit orifices may be employed. Also employed may be a distributing device for applying additive material to the textile fibers prior to crimping to enhance the crimping operation or to enhance the end use of the crimped fiber or both. Fibrillated polyolefin materials that are crimped in accordance with the invention are adapted for use as filter materials in smoking articles.

Method for surface modifying substrates characterized in adsorbing on the surface of a solid substrate a polyamine of a high average molecular weight and cross-linking this with crotonaldehyde either simultaneously or by addition in separate steps to produce amino groups on the surface of the substrate, and optionally adsorbing one or several alternating layers of an anionic polysaccharide and of the said polyamine being cross-linked with crotonaldehyde, and optionally finally adsorbing the said polyamine, not cross-linked, to produce free primary amino groups by which chemical entities having a biological activity may be bound by covalent or ionic bonding.
摘要:
Textile structure based on filaments impregnated and/or coated with thermoplastic material (FIT filaments) is formed from at least two layers of such FIT filaments, arranged perpendicularly to one another in the manner of a warp and a weft, but without being interlaced, and a binding weave consisting of a warp and a weft holding each of the FIT filaments in position. The textile structure is particularly applicable to the production of laminates exhibiting high mechanical stength.
摘要:
A composite laminated, non-distortable needlepoint canvas material comprised of a primary layer of non-elastic, open-mesh woven fabric having a uniform weave pattern of mesh apertures and a relatively thin secondary mesh-stabilizing layer of sheer non-elastic fabric material. The threads of the open-mesh primary layer are impregnated and coated with a synthetic resin mesh-stiffening material and are bonded to the sheer secondary layer by the synthetic resin mesh-stiffening material of the primary layer or by a combination of such mesh-stiffening material and an applied synthetic adhesive. The threads of the primary layer are not susceptible to raveling at the edges of the composite needlepoint material. The sheer fabric secondary layer may be a non-woven, semi-transparent, random-spun synthetic fiber material or a sheer closely woven fabric material.

An elastomer coated bias fabric for reinforcing power transmission belts and the like is disclosed wherein one surface of the fabric is provided with an uncured, tacky, elastomeric composition. The fabric is prepared by pre-impregnating the fabric, transversely stretching the fabric on a tenter frame, coating a latex composition on both surfaces of the fabric while maintaining the fabric in its transversely stretched condition, and after drying the fabric, overcoating one surface only of the coated fabric with a tackified, latex composition which may contain a chemical linking agent which enhances the bond between the elastomer and the fabric by forming a chemical bridge between them. A method for manufacturing coated fabric is also disclosed.
摘要:
A structural fabric of high torsion resistance and stiffness is provided. The fabric is a three-layered double biased fabric, the first layer being comprised of parallel structural fibers biased from the longitudinal center line of the fabric, the middle layer being comprised of parallel structural fibers of twice the weight of the fibers of the first layer and aligned at an angle of 90.degree. to those of the first layer and a third layer of parallel structural fibers of the same weight as those of the first layer and aligned at 90.degree. to those of the second layer. The fibers and layers may be held in place and affixed by use of secondary knitted or sewn yarns or threads, and the entire fabric may be saturated with a curable resin.
摘要:
A carbon composite article and the method of making the article wherein selected carbon fibrous materials are formed into a basic starting substrate having a volume greater than the desired volume of the finished article. Very small amounts of a carbonaceous binder material are used to bond the fibrous materials together at a multiplicity of bonding sites. The basic substrate is then subjected to controlled temperatures and pressures to form a shaped substrate characterized by having a high degree of open porosity, a predetermined shape and structural integrity sufficient to withstand subsequent substrate processing. The carbonaceous binder is applied to the fibrous material in a manner whereby substantial encapsulation of the individual fibers is avoided so that the portions of the fibers disposed intermediate the bonding sites are free to move to accommodate and effectively distribute stresses which may be generated within the substrate due to material shrinkage or other process related causes. The shaped substrate is then partially or fully densified in a freestanding configuration by chemical vapor deposition of pyrolytic materials interstitially of the substrate.

A substantially light-impervious laminate material is provided. In one embodiment, the material includes a first relatively light-reflective (white) polyvinyl chloride sheet, an open scrim sheet, a second relatively light-reflective (white) polyvinyl chloride sheet, and a relatively light-absorbtive (black) bonding agent permeating the scrim sheet and binding together the first sheet, the second sheet and the scrim sheet. Preferably this bonding agent contains aluminum pigment and carbon black pigment.A method of continuously making this laminate material is also provided. The laminate is made by twice coating the underside of the top laminate sheet with the bonding agent, pressing the scrim sheet against the bonding agent and top sheet underside, stripping the scrim sheet from the top sheet underside, and re-pressing the scrim sheet against the top sheet underside. Next, the top sheet, bonding agent and scrim sheet are heated, and a hot bottom sheet is pressed against the hot scrim sheet. The laminate is then cooled. The finished product can be produced at relatively low cost, yet the occurrence of "pinholes", "slits" and other imperfections is discouraged.
