摘要:
Disclosed is an extruded, low density, non-outgassing ethylenic polymer foam containing 30-85% open cells and the remainder closed cells and having an essentially integral surface. The foam possesses superior compression recovery and lower compression resistance when compared with similarly comprised ethylenic closed cell foams and superior moisture resistance and handling characteristics when compared to open cell foams.

摘要:
An apertured thermoplastic fabric is formed by extruding a molten thermoplastic polymer film having a secant modulus of no greater than 50,000 psi, embossing the film in a nip provided between a smooth surfaced roll and a patterned roll, wherein the patterned roll includes a plurality of discrete, raised projections disposed in a pattern and each of which includes a sharp distal end; applying sufficient pressure at the nip of the patterned and smooth surfaced rolls for causing a plurality of small apertures to be formed in the extruded film in substantially the same pattern as the pattern of discrete, raised projections; orienting the apertured film in both the cross-machine direction and in the machine-direction, and thereafter embossing the oriented film on at least one surface with a plurality of raised members spaced closer to each other than the spaces between the apertures in the oriented film, to thereby provide a matte-type finish on at least one surface. The formed fabric also forms a part of the present invention.
摘要:
A method of making apertured films including the step of perforating films of thermoplastic materials with embossing rolls engraved with patterns which form small slits or incipient slits in the sheet. The patterns are such that the design on the roll includes lands, or raised areas, which cross lands of the opposing roll at an acute angle. The perforated or partially perforated film formed may then be further processed by orientation, uniaxial or biaxial, simultaneous or sequential; by heat treatment; or both to modify the porosity, hole size, or other properties as desired.

An apertured thermoplastic fabric is formed by extruding, in the form of a film, a molten thermoplastic polymer having a secant modulus of no greater than 50,000 psi, embossing the film in a nip provided between a smooth surfaced roll and a patterned roll, wherein the patterned roll includes a plurality of discrete, raised projections disposed in a pattern and each of which includes a sharp distal end; applying sufficient pressure at the nip of the patterned and smooth surfaced rolls for causing a plurality of small apertures to be formed in the extruded film in substantially the same pattern as the pattern of discrete, raised projections; orienting the apertured film in both the cross-machine direction and in the machine-direction, and thereafter embossing the oriented film on at least one surface with a plurality of raised members spaced closer to each other than the spaces between the apertures in the oriented film, to thereby provide a matte-type finish on at least one surface.

摘要:
An endoluminal prosthesis having an unsupported or flexible region and a delivery system for delivering the endoluminal prosthesis is provided. The delivery system includes a prosthesis delivery catheter with stiffening elements that provide longitudinally rigid support to a flexible or unsupported portion of an endoluminal prosthesis as the prosthesis is being deployed. A prosthesis is removably coupled to the stiffening elements. The endoluminal prosthesis can be a stent or a stent graft or graft.
摘要:
An absorbent garment includes a front body panel having a terminal waist edge and a terminal crotch edge and a rear body panel having a terminal waist edge and a terminal crotch edge. The terminal crotch edge of the rear body panel is longitudinally spaced from and forms a gap with the terminal crotch edge of the front body panel. An absorbent composite bridges the gap between the front and rear body panels with first and second terminal edges overlying and connected to the front and rear body panels respectively. In one embodiment, the terminal edges of the absorbent composite are the only portion of the absorbent composite connected to the front and rear body panels. In another embodiment, the absorbent composite is further connected to the front and rear body panels at first and second attachment locations proximate a longitudinally extending centerline of the absorbent composite and longitudinally spaced from the first and second terminal edges. Methods of using the absorbent garments are also provided.
