Processes for the production of high strength polyethylene tape articles from high strength ultra-high molecular weight multi-filament yarns, and to the tape articles, fabrics, laminates and impact resistant materials made therefrom.
摘要:
The disclosure features a fabric comprising polymer fibers and an antimicrobial system. The antimicrobial system comprises a sequestering agent and an agent binding the sequestering agent on surfaces of at least some of the polymer fibers. In some implementations, at least some of the sequestering agent remains on polymer fiber-surfaces after 50 cycles of laundering.
摘要:
A textile fabric includes a smooth surface with one or more regions having coating material exhibiting thermal expansion or contraction in response to change in temperature, adjusting insulation performance of the textile fabric in response to ambient conditions.
摘要:
A melt-spun highly oriented and crystalline thermoplastic filament or fiber having a tenacity of at least about 10 g/d, an elongation less than about 15-%, and a modulus of at least about 130 g/d. A method of making highly oriented and crystalline thermoplastic filaments has been developed that comprises extruding a thermoplastic polymer to form at least one molten filament. The at least one molten filament is introduced into a horizontal liquid isothermal bath. The bath is maintained at a temperature between the glass transition temperature and the melting temperature of the thermoplastic polymer. The bath increases the tension along the molten filament to form at least one partially oriented and low crystalline filament. The partially oriented filament is drawn to form the highly oriented and crystalline filament.
摘要:
The flexible sheet-like material comprises a textile layer, which is coated at least on one side with a functional layer which is permeable to gas but impermeable to the matrix material, acting as a barrier layer for the matrix material, and is produced by coating the textile layer directly with a foam or a paste.
摘要:
A planar surface covering with an outer leather layer, a stabilization layer secured to the outer leather layer by an adhesive, and a tension layer secured to the stabilization layer. The stabilization layer has a fibrous stabilization material with stabilization fibers oriented in at least two planar directions of the stabilization layer. The tension layer has a fibrous tension material with tension fibers oriented in at least two planar directions of the tension layer. The tension fibers melt at a lower temperature than the stabilization fibers, and the adhesive melts at a lower temperature than the tension fibers. In one version, the fibrous stabilization material of the stabilization layer has a thickness and fiber characteristics that create cushion attributes in the stabilization layer. In another version, the fibrous tension material of the tension layer has a thickness and fiber characteristics that create cushion attributes in the tension layer.
摘要:
A tri-function, self-sealing, anti-leakage and fire-extreme-heat-protective coating for, and applicable to the outside of, a liquid-fuel container, including (a) an inner layer portion with a structural propensity for sealing inwardly directed container puncture wounds, (b) an intermediate layer portion with a structural propensity for sealing outwardly directed container puncture wounds, and (c) an outer layer portion with combined structural propensities (1) for sealing all-direction container puncture wounds and (2) for minimizing heat rise within a protected container due to a fire or an extreme heat condition adjacent the outside of the container.
摘要:
Flame resistant fabrics having antimicrobial properties that combat odor and/or resist hazardous microorganisms. The fabrics are particularly suitable for use in clothing and more particularly in protective garments designed to be worn by individuals, such as military personnel and emergency rescue personnel, at risk of exposure to fire and extreme temperatures as well as hazardous substances. The fabrics may be formed in a variety of ways, including, but not limited to, incorporating antimicrobial fibers into the flame resistant fabric yarn or by treating the pre-formed flame resistant yarn or fabric with antimicrobial agents in a dyeing or finishing process.
摘要:
The present invention concerns an area-measured material (sheet material) (10) comprising a continuous surface portion (frames) and a void content (12) of at least 25%, preferably 50% or more in relation to the total area covered by the area-measured material (sheet material). The continuous surface portion frames consists totally or partially of hollow structures, tubes or capillaries (13) tailored to transport a fluid medium. These hollow structures are docked to at least one collector (11). Both textile sheet material with hollow fibres, sheets, films, panels or composite structures of sheets, films or panels with hollow structures as tubes or capillaries can be used as well as grids with elongated ribbon-like elements. These area-measured materials (sheet materials) can be used for instance to absorb and/or store and/or transport and/or to discharge energy, in particular, if the “energy density” is low. The absorbed energy can be converted into any other kind of energy.
摘要:
In a method of knitting a garment having a defined axis (A), the knitting layers are formed in a direction parallel to the axis. Pathways (8) defined by distinctive yarns extending substantially parallel to the axis are incorporated in the knitting process seriatim, each distinctive yarn being knitted into its respective pathway using the same yarn feeder. The distinctive yarns are normally conductive, to provide connections to sensors (6) located on the garment, and such sensors may themselves be an integral part of the garment fabric.
