Abstract:
There is provided a method of treating textile fibres including: a) providing a polymeric precursor including a diallyl amide cationic compound and a corresponding counter ion; b) either (i) coating the textile fibres with the polymeric precursor and polymerising the polymeric precursor to form a polymeric coating, or (ii) polymerising the polymeric precursor and contacting the polymerised polymeric precursor with the textile fibres to form a polymeric coating on the textile fibres. There is also provided a composite structure including a polymeric coating formed from the polymeric precursors of the present invention.
Abstract:
A composite material, comprising: (A) a particle comprising: (i) a core comprising one or more magnetic materials and (ii) a shell comprising silicon dioxide and (B) a polymer component selected from the group consisting of polyolefm homopolymers, polyolefm interpolymers, and combinations thereof, wherein the polymer component is free of free radical initiator is provided.
Abstract:
A structure for use in industrial fabrics such as paper machine clothing and engineered fabrics is disclosed. The structure includes one or more layers of an elastic nonwoven extruded film or sheet, which is elastic, resilient, and compressible in a thickness direction, and extensible, bendable, and resilient in its length and transverse directions, and one or more layers of a plurality of substantially parallel machine direction (MD) yarns in various patterns. The structure can also include one or more layers of a plurality of substantially parallel cross-machine direction (CD) yarns attached on top of or under the MD yarns. The structure has a high degree of both compressibility under an applied normal load and excellent recovery (resiliency or spring back) upon removal of that load.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a non-PVC film and film laminate for use in marketing, advertising campaigns, particularly outdoor or other environment impacted promotions and safety applications. The film is in one exemplary embodiment includes two layers, a top layer and a bottom layer. The top layer is a urethane-acrylic hybrid polymer and the bottom layer is a non-PVC based polymer. The film may be transparent, translucent, clear or have other desirable optical properties.
Abstract:
Aspects of the invention are found in a heating component having a composite material coated on a support. The composite material includes a fluorinated or silicone polymer and inductively-heatable particles. Additional aspects of the invention are found in a heating belt having a flexible support coated with a composite material. The composite material includes a polymer material and inductively-heatable particles. Further aspects of the invention are found in a system for heating an article. The system includes a heating belt and a field generator. The heating belt includes a flexible support coated in a composite material. The composite material includes a polymeric matrix and inductively-heatable particles. The field generator induces a field about the heating belt. The inductively-heatable particles heat in the presence of the field.
Abstract:
A processing belt (150, 160, 170) for use in chemical mechanical planarization (CMP), is provided. The processing belt is reinforced with one of a mesh belt (154) and a woven fabric (164). The processing belt includes a polymeric material (152) encasing the mesh belt to define the processing belt. The processing belt is fabricated so that the mesh belt forms a continuous loop within the polymeric material, and the mesh belt is constructed as a grid of intersecting members (174). The intersecting members are joined at fixed joints (176) to form a rigid support structure for the processing belt.
