Abstract:
Fabrics which allow for light transmission and provide thermal insulation are described. A fabric is formed from at least one yarn to form a continuous web of fabric. The continuous web is configured to allow between 20% and 65% of incident light to be transmitted through the fabric, and to reduce heat transfer through the fabric such that the fabric has an R value of at least 0.75 K-m 2 /W. The continuous web of fabric may be a woven fabric where the at least one yarn is woven to form the woven fabric.
Abstract:
L'invention concerne un tissu pour blindage électromagnétique présentant une armure de fils de trame (2) et de fils de chaîne (3) entrelacés. De plus, les fils de chaîne (3) sont conducteurs et comprennent des fils conducteurs textiles multi-filaments ou monofilaments associés à des brins métalliques et en ce que au moins un fils de chaîne conducteur (4) est inséré en trame pour créer une liaison équipotentielle perpendiculaire à la direction des fils de chaîne(3).
Abstract:
A flame resistant fabric for the use in the construction of aviation airbags comprises a polyester fiber substrate which is treated with a first flame retardant. A polyurethane coating is applied to the polyester fiber substrate, which has been treated with the first flame retardant, to impart high pressure permeability resistance to the flame resistant fabric. The polyurethane coating comprises a second flame retardant to insure that the flame resistant fabric complies with Federal Aviation Requirement 25.853. The flame resistant fabric further comprises sufficient high pressure permeability resistance which is measured as a pressure of not less than about 198 kPa after five seconds from an initial inflation and pressurization to about 200 kPa, such as may be encountered in and during an inflation of aviation airbag assemblies.
Abstract:
[Problem] To provide a woven textile used for products, the textile having hygroscopic properties, durability, and good texture, and having Japanese paper used as a raw material. [Solution] A woven textile obtained by blending a primary yarn comprising Japanese paper thread, and a secondary yarn that is thinner than the primary yarn, wherein the woven textile is a high weave-density woven fabric that has a woven-texture structure comprising a warp (A) and a woof (A) composed of the primary yarn, and a warp (B) and a woof (B) composed of the secondary yarn, and in the woven texture structure, the warp rows have a repeating row structure in which a plurality of threads of the warp (B) are arranged between two threads of the warp (A), and the woof rows have a repeating row structure in which a plurality of threads of the woof (B) are arranged between two threads of the woof (A), and the warp (A) and the woof (A) are interlaced in a flat woven texture structure.
Abstract:
Expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) monofilament fibers and woven fabrics formed from the ePTFE fibers are provided. The ePTFE fibers have a substantially rectangular configuration, a density less than about 1.0 g/cc, and an aspect ratio greater than 15. Additionally, the ePTFE fibers are microporous and have a node and fibril structure. The ePTFE fiber may be woven into a fabric without first twisting the fiber. A polymer membrane and/or a textile may be laminated to the woven fabric to produce a laminated article. The ePTFE woven fabric simultaneously possesses high moisture vapor transmission (highly breathable) and high water entry pressure (water resistant). The woven fabric is quiet, soft, and drapable, making it especially suitable for use in garments, gloves and footwear applications. Treatments may be provided to the surface of the ePTFE fiber and/or the woven fabric to impart one or more desired functionality, such as, for example, oleophobicity.
