摘要:
Disclosed herein is an electronic digital control system for printing a pattern onto the surface of a moving substrate in accordance with digitally-defined pattern data using a plurality of individually controllable colorant-dispensing applicators arranged in a series of arrays positioned along the path of said moving substrate, with each array containing a colorant representing a separate process color. The digital control system converts the pattern data, expressed in terms of a color assignment for each individual pattern element comprising the desired pattern, into a series of logical firing instructions for each applicator as required to reproduce the assigned color on the substrate using one or more process colors.

Certain compositions provide excellent repellency, durability, and soil/stain release properties when applied to a textile or fabric. A textile substrate for fire resistant garments and the like which provides good repellency and stain/soil release is disclosed. Such compositions may include: a repellent component and a crosslinking component. A method for applying such compositions to textiles also is disclosed.

Milled, small particle size, solid bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane dicarboxylate salt-containing thermoplastic nucleating additive formulations further comprising at least one anticaking agent for improved haze reduction, improved nucleation performance, and prevention of potential cementation (via agglomeration) of the salt component present therein are provided. Such small particle size dicarboxylate salts provide desirable properties within thermoplastic articles, particularly as nucleating agents, but apparently suffer from certain clarity issues and agglomeration problems (due to the flat and thin plate structures of such compounds and the propensity they exhibit to cohere to each other during storage), making utilization thereof less desirable for certain applications. Thus, an improvement has been provided to permit full benefit of the excellent crystallization temperatures, stiffness, and calcium stearate compatibility such dicarboxylate salts accord within target low haze thermoplastics. Furthermore, unexpected improvements in dusting reduction have been found upon the utilization of such anticaking additives in combination with the aforementioned nucleating salts. Thermoplastic additive compositions and methods of producing thermoplastics with such nucleator/anticaking additive combinations are also contemplated within this invention.

Certain compositions provide excellent repellency, durability, and soil/stain release properties when applied to a textile or fabric. Such compositions may include: a repellent component, a hydrophilic resin component, a soil release component; and a crosslinking component. A method for applying such compositions to textiles also is disclosed.
摘要:
Certain chemical compositions provide superior repellency, durability, and soil (stain) release properties when applied to a textile or fabric. Compositions may contain a fluorochemical-containing soil release component or a crosslinking component, or both, and also may contain an antimicrobial agent. In some applications, the crosslinking component may be hydrophobic, so as to be generally not compatible with aqueous environments. Compositions having less than about 6 weight percent of a fluorochemical-containing soil release component, based upon the weight of the treating composition, may be employed in some applications.

Novel thermoplastics and pipes made therefrom which can withstand extreme surface and/or internally generated pressures that make them excellent candidates for uses such as within underground liquid and gas transport systems are provided. Such pipes are improvements over standard metal (i.e., steel, copper, lead, and the like), concrete, ceramic, and the like, pipes due to toxicity issues (such as with lead pipes), raw material costs (such as with copper), construction costs, shipping costs, implementation costs (particularly underground), flexibility (and thus modulus strength allowances) to compensate for underground movements (i.e., earthquakes and tremors), non-rusting characteristics, reduced crack propagation possibilities, and ease in manufacture. Such thermoplastics exhibit excellent long-term hydrostatic strength characteristics that permit potential long-term reliable usage in such underground conditions and are preferably made from resins that include nucleating agents that provide such needed properties therein.
摘要:
A layered textile composite product is disclosed which may include a nonwoven needled layer. The nonwoven needled layer is comprised of mechanically interlocked staple fibers which are needled together on a needle punch machine and then bonded with an adhesive layer to a polymeric or polyolefin film layer. The overall layered textile product may be used in several different applications, including for example in automobiles for seating, load floor, trunk linings, floor carpeting, door panel trim, and other interior trim applications.
摘要:
An inventive blue colorant comprising a chromophore having at least one hydroxy group-terminated polyester chain attached, through a suitable alkylamino linking group (or groups), to the 1- position, the 4- position, or both, of an anthraquinone backbone is provided. Such colorants exhibit excellent amine/base stability and thermal stability, effective colorations, excellent low extraction rates, and high lightfastness levels, particularly when incorporated within certain media and/or on the surface of certain polyurethane substrates. The polyester chain or chains can be conveniently tailored to increase the solubility or compatibility in different types of polyurethane resin precursors thereby permitting the introduction of such excellent coloring chromophores within diverse polyurethane media and/or or diverse polyurethane substrates as well as provides a liquid colorant which facilitates handling. Compositions and articles comprising such inventive colorants are provided as well as methods for producing such inventive colorants.
