Abstract:
A paper machine clothing, especially a press felt (1), includes a support (2) which has at least one layer of a thread lap (3, 4, 5, 13) and which is embedded in a fiber matrix. Lap threads (6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 14, 17, 21, 25, 26, 27, 28, 33, 38, 43, 44, 45) run parallel to one another. The lap threads (10, 14, 17) are provided with outwardly projecting fibers (12, 16, 19).
Abstract:
A flexible intumescent composition for protecting a substrate against fire and thermal extremes includes an internally flexibilized epoxy binder, a carbonific, a spumific, a catalyst, and preferably additives. The compositions can be applied as coatings or can be formed into shapes, preferably sheets which are applied to or wrapped around the substrate. The sheets may be adhered to the substrate, and the ends of the wrapped sheets may be stapled or otherwise secured to each other.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a wood board for use as flooring panels and a method of making the wood board. The wood board has the strength and outer surface finish of hardwood boards, increased flexibility, and a lower cost than hardwood boards. The wood board of the present invention comprises a core layer having plural veneer layers oriented such that longitudinal grain structures of adjacent layers are perpendicular with respect to each other, and each veneer having longitudinal pierced slots placed therein oriented in parallel with their respective longitudinal grain structures; and a longitudinally sliced face layer placed upon the inner core layer. This wood board and flooring panel of the present invention have high strength, high flexibility and superior surface smoothness. Further, the present invention provides lower manufacturing costs and thus lower costs for the consumer.
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods are presented for reinforcing and stiffening a printed circuit board (PCB) in selected locations by utilizing preferentially oriented fibers. Selected fibers within the polymeric material matrix of the PCB fiber-matrix layer are removed and replaced with a similar quantity of fibers in a preferential orientation. Various combinations of layering of modified fiber-matrix layer material with conventional fiber-matrix layer material are presented to achieve the desired PCB stiffening. Printed circuit boards, under the weight of heavy attached electronic components, may deflect or flex along an axis, defined as the characteristic fold. This flexing is exasperated with manufacturing and handling loading, particularly when mounted in a chassis. Preferentially orientated fibers laid transverse to the characteristic fold reinforces the area to resist flexure within the area surrounding the characteristic fold. Reducing PCB flexure is particularly important in locations of the PCB containing surface mount technology (SMT) components, such as ball grid array electronic components. The lead attachment for BGA components is particularly susceptible to PCB flexure resulting in lead fatigue, fracture and failure. The presented methods and apparatus provide PCB stiffening without the addition of external PCB stiffeners and without effecting the PCB overall thickness, fiber to matrix ratio, uniform properties, or dielectric properties.
Abstract:
A laminar reinforcing structure is provided for impact resisting face on an article, such as toe-puffs of safety shoes, striking faces on baseball bat and ice hockey stick, outsoles for boots of ice skates, and heads or faces of golf clubs, to increase an impact-resistant strength at such faces. The reinforcing structure includes a basic layer and at least one reinforcing layer. The basic layer is made of one or more plies of a fiber-reinforced thermosetting resin material and molded into a profile matching with that of the impact-resisting face of the article. The reinforcing layer is made of a thermoplastic resin-fiber woven fabric dip-coated with thermosetting resin to cover at least part of surfaces of the basic layer or be sandwiched between any two adjacent plies of the basic layer. The laminar reinforcing structure provides excellent mechanical strength and has low weight without substantially increasing the article weight.
Abstract:
A hot melt adhesive composition is based on an isotactic polypropylene random copolymer (RCP). The composition contains about 4%-50% by weight of the RCP copolymer, about 20%-65% by weight of a compatible tackifier, about 0%-40% by weight of a plasticizer, about 0%-3% by weight of a stabilizer, about 0%-40% by weight of a wax, and optionally about 0%-60% by weight of an atactic poly-null-olefin (APAO). The adhesive composition may be used in a number of applications such as, for example, in disposable nonwoven hygienic articles, paper converting, flexible packaging, wood working, carton and case sealing, labeling and other assembly applications.
Abstract:
A flexible, intermediate, bulk, container includes coated or uncoated woven fabric or plastics film having antistatic properties and is provided with elements which are enabled for corona discharge of static electricity accumulating in the flexible, intermediate, bulk, container, the surface of the woven fabric or plastics film at least partially comprising fibers protruding less than 10 mm from the surface.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a composite laminate, a layup and preform for such a composite laminate and to a method of manufacturing the composite laminate. The layup (28), preform and composite laminate (22) include at least one ply (20) which includes hairy yarn (10). The action of the hairy yarn (10) is to provide cross ply linking owing to the extension of fibres from the hairy yarn into spaces both within the ply and between the plies. The addition of resin matrix material (26) to layup provides a firm cross ply linkage to the composite laminate.
