摘要:
An article of apparel is disclosed that includes a textile with at least one property that changes upon exposure to a physical stimulus. The textile has a modifiable structure formed from one or more yarns that exhibit a dimensional transformation upon exposure to the physical stimulus. The yarns have a first set of dimensions when unexposed to the physical stimulus, and the yarns have a second set of dimensions when exposed to the physical stimulus. The structure of the textile is modified by exposing the textile to the physical stimulus such that the yarns transform from the first set of dimensions to the second set of dimensions and change the property of the textile. Reinforcing structures, incisions, partial incisions, and coatings may also be utilized to enhance the textile structures
摘要:
The present invention relates generally to composite materials and to methods of manufacturing the composite materials. In particular, the composite material of the present invention utilizes combinations of continuous fibers in the form of loops, chopped fibers, woven fibers and foams.

A seat cushion or other resilient structure includes a foam inner core combined with layers of varying density fiber batts to impart desirable comfort characteristics, support features and durability thereto. In one embodiment, the foam core is positioned between intermediate layers of low loft fiber batts of relatively high densities. In turn, the intermediate batts are sandwiched between outer high loft fiber batts having relatively low densities. Alternately, the foam core comprises one or more intermediate layers of relatively high density fiber batts that are positioned within the foam core to create one or more fiber batt subcores. The outer high loft fiber batts sandwich the foam core comprising the fiber batt subcores to create the resilient structure.

This invention relates to a low fiber, plyable facer suitable for use in the construction industry, particularly for insulation board manufacture, comprising a dry preformed fiber mat containing a binder for the fibers, preferably a preformed glass mat, coated with a prefoamed composition which contains a polymer latex, a foam sustaining amount of a surfactant and a flame retarding and/or strengthening amount of a mineral filler and also to the use and process for the preparation of the above as well as to a siding underlayment or insulation board having a foamed, thermosetting resin core which is surfaced with said facer as a product for commercial use.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a flexible sheet having a composite structure for stabilizing coatings, comprising a first layer of fiber material and a second layer of fiber material impregnated by a first and a second impregnating material, respectively, and a body layer set between said first layer and said second layer according to a general sandwich structure, where the body layer consists of a third material. The first and the second impregnating materials and the third material constituting the body layer are polymeric materials presenting a substantial affinity, so that the flexible sheet has a physically heterogeneous and chemically homogeneous structure.
摘要:
A nonwoven fabric comprises a first layer formed of staple fibers having a smooth outer surface, a second layer formed of staple fibers having an outer surface with a roughened texture and a third, spunbond layer sandwiched between the first and second layers. A binder material is applied to the second layer which substantially covers its textured surface and is effective to resist deformation under the application of pressure even in the presence of liquid.
摘要:
There is disclosed an absorbent article including an absorbent layer and a liquid-permeable surface sheet placed on a liquid-receiving side of the absorbent layer for introducing excreted liquid from the human body to the absorbent layer. The surface sheet is of a corrugated configuration to have valleys and peaks extending in a longitudinal direction of the article and alternately arranged in a transverse direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. Each valley has a connecting part raised to connect between two adjacent peaks.
摘要:
A lightweight nonwoven material having hydrophilic characteristics is described. The nonwoven material includes at least three layers wherein a first layer is spunlaid, a second layer is meltblown, and a third layer is spunlaid, the first and third layers being external layers. The basis weight of the nonwoven material is 13.5 gsm or less and the basis weight of the second meltblown layer is 3.5 gsm or less, preferably less than 3.0 gsm, and more preferably less than 2.5 gsm. Hydrophilicity is imparted to the nonwoven material by inclusion of a surfactant additive in an extrusion melt during formation of fibers, or by topical treatment following formation of the layers of the nonwoven material. The method of making the nonwoven material involves formation of the layers thereof as continuous fibers and forming the layers in a continuous sequential manner, i.e., a subsequent layer being formed on top of a preceding layer or layers.
