Title: The Innovative Contributions of Paul Windsor Estey
Introduction
Paul Windsor Estey is a notable inventor based in Cumming, GA (US), recognized for his significant contributions to the field of materials science. With a total of 16 patents to his name, Estey has made remarkable advancements in the development of elastomeric and non-elastomeric polyolefin blend materials.
Latest Patents
Among his latest patents, Estey has developed a laminate of elastomeric and non-elastomeric polyolefin blend materials. This invention discloses a nonwoven web made from a polymeric fiber blend that includes at least one elastomeric polyolefin and at least one non-elastomeric polyolefin. The polymeric blend is designed to comprise a non-elastomeric resin in the range of about 10 to about 90 percent by weight, and an elastomeric resin of about 90 to about 10 percent by weight. The elastomeric polyolefin has a density of less than about 0.885 g/cm, while the non-elastomeric polyolefin has a density of at least about 0.890 g/cm. In a specific embodiment, the polymeric blend may consist of about 50 percent to about 90 percent by weight of a narrow molecular weight distribution polyethylene and about 50 percent to about 10 percent by weight of a non-elastomeric polyolefin, such as linear low-density polyethylene.
Another significant patent involves an absorbent article featuring a stretchable reinforcement member. This absorbent structure includes an absorbent core made from a matrix of fibers, which is reinforced with a stretchable member, such as scrim. The absorbent matrix is secured to the web of scrim while in a stretched condition. When the scrim is in an unstretched state, it partially gathers the absorbent core, creating rugosities on the core. The reinforcing member can have a non-uniform transverse width to conform to the shape of the absorbent core, and it may consist of multiple layers of reinforcing members arranged in a pattern to facilitate stretching.
Career Highlights
Estey has worked with prominent companies in the industry, including Kimberly-Clark Worldwide, Inc. and Kimberly-Clark Corporation. His work has significantly impacted the development of innovative materials used in various applications.
