摘要:
The invention relates to nonwoven fabrics containing polymeric multiple component fibers which include a core component and a plurality of wing components attached to the core. The polymeric core component has an elasticity that is greater than the elasticity of at least one of the wing polymeric components. The fibers assume a spiral twist configuration in which the plurality of wings substantially spiral about the core. In a preferred embodiment, the nonwoven fabrics have elastic stretch and recovery properties with a textile-like hand.
摘要:
A system and an associated method for improving mercury removal from a flow containing combustion exhaust. The system includes a filtration arrangement that includes at least one layer of ePTFE, with the at least one ePTFE layer being configured to have a geometry that retains at least some accumulated particulate matter. The system includes an arrangement for providing at least some particulate matter in the flow for accumulation on the filtration arrangement by the geometry.
摘要:
A method of manufacturing a fiber-reinforced article. The method includes the steps of providing a mat fiber stricture defining voids therein. A membrane structure is applied over at least a portion of the fiber structure. The membrane structure includes a microporous membrane. At least the microporous membrane of the membrane structure has an oil resistance rating of at least a number 8 determined by AATCC 118 testing. A resin and hardener mix is provided. The resin is infused into voids of the fiber structure by applying a vacuum to the fiber structure and the membrane structure wherein the membrane structure inhibits the flow of resin therethrough.
摘要:
An article includes a porous membrane having pores, a first selectively permeable coating supported by the membrane and a component protective against delamination of the selectively permeable coating from the porous membrane and/or any other coatings applied thereto. The first selectively permeable coating includes an antichemical, antibiological, antiradiological and/or antimicrobial agent. The protective component may be provided alone, or as an element of the first selectively permeable coating, or, a second selectively permeable coating. A laminate and methods of providing these are also provided.
摘要:
A membrane contactor system for removing a component from a gas, comprising a housing defining a gas flow path; a microporous membrane positioned in the housing to allow the gas to flow across the membrane, wherein the membrane comprises a structure of nodes connected by fibrils in which surfaces of the structure of nodes and fibrils define a plurality of interconnecting pores extending through the microporous membrane, wherein the plurality of interconnecting pores are configured to allow the component to diffuse therethrough; and an oleophobic coating disposed on the microporous membrane to form a coated membrane and configured to provide oleophobicity to the coated membrane without blocking the plurality of interconnecting pores.
摘要:
An article includes a membrane having pores and that is air permeable. A nanoparticle precursor is dispersed throughout the pores, and the nanoparticle precursor is responsive to a stimulus to form a catalytically active nanoparticle. An associated method is also provided.
摘要:
A full-surface bonded multiple component nonwoven fabric is provided that has an improved combination of tear strength and tensile strength at lower thicknesses than known in the art. The full-surface bonded multiple component webs have a void percent between about 3% and 56% and a Frazier permeability of at least 0.155 m3/min-m2. The full-surface bonded multiple component nonwoven fabrics can be prepared in a smooth-calendering process.
摘要:
A porous membrane assembly includes, in an exemplary embodiment, a porous membrane substrate having hydrophobic properties. The membrane substrate includes a first side, an opposing second side and a plurality of pores extending therethrough. The membrane substrate also includes a discontinuous layer of an oleophobic coating applied to the first side so that the plurality of pores in the first side are substantially free of the oleophobic coating, and a continuous layer of an amine containing hydrophilic polymer coating applied to the second side of the membrane substrate.
摘要:
A venting system for a temporary shelter that includes one or more vents that are positioned in the exterior shell of the temporary shelter. Each of the one or more vents may include a membrane that is moisture vapor transmissive and resistant to liquid penetration. The membrane may have a moisture vapor transmissive rate of at least 4,000 g/m2/day. The membrane may be expanded polytetrafluoroethylene. The one or more vents may have a size such that there is approximately 4 m2 of vent surface area in the exterior shell of the temporary shelter per 20 m3 of interior space within the temporary shelter.
摘要:
A glove having chemical barrier properties includes, in an exemplary embodiment, an outer shell and an insert. The insert includes a first layer formed from a gas permeable liquid impermeable microporous membrane and a second layer including activated carbon. Optionally the insert includes a third layer formed from a textile.
