A method and system for forming composite yarns having selected performance characteristics including cut resistance and/or fire/heat resistance. The composite yarn will include a core of one or more filaments and a fiber bundle wrapped about the core and integrated with one or more additional filaments that help bind the fibers about the core. An additional filament or other composite yarn can be plied together therewith to form the finished composite yarn. The core filament(s) will be selected from cut and/or fire/heat resistant materials, while the fibers of the fiber bundle and the additional filament(s) wrapped about the core can be selected from natural or synthetic fibers or filaments having additional desired properties.

Methods and systems for forming a composite yarn

A spun yarn formed with a core of microdenier synthetic filaments wrapped with a sheath. The sheath generally includes carded staple fibers that are spun around the core.

Microfiber core mop yarn and method for producing same

A mop yarn formed with a core of microdenier synthetic filament fibers wrapped with a sheath. The sheath generally includes carded staple fibers spun around the core.

This invention generally relates to the production of a composite yarn or non-woven strand wherein a core of super absorbent fibers or polymers (SAP's) having a swell factor of approximately 25% and greater are encapsulated by a nonwoven membrane of defined porosity. The membrane is then sealed in a fashion to generally deter or prevent the SAP material from migrating out of the core as water is freely absorbed and desorbed from the composite yarn structure. The strands of yarns or strips of non-woven material are subsequently constructed into an open or unorientated fabric formation. When used as a subterranean fabric, structure or material, the resultant fabric structure retains moisture while permitting normal root growth and allowing excess water to pass through and beneath the fabric while facilitating movement of water from lower levels to the surface.

Membrane encapsulated fiber and method for producing same

A heat and flame resistant sewing thread having a core strand formed of glass material filaments is wrapped with a sheath of staple fibers spun about the core strand A lubricant is applied along the core strand to assist in the wrapping of the core strand with the sheath fibers. The sheath fibers include a series of microdenier fibers and generally will be ring spun about the core strand.

Heat/fire resistant sewing thread and method for producing same

A process for producing yarns that have enhanced resistance to unraveling and linting, wherein the yarns are moved along guides through a needle loom where a series of needles engage the yarns. This engagement of the yarns by the needles causes the fibers of the yarns to become intermixed.

Needle punched yarns

A yarn is provided which includes a core and a wrapping yarn wound about the core. The core may include glass, metal and carbonaceous fibers which may be roughened and/or stretch-broken. The yarn may exhibit enhanced performance properties, such as strength, cut resistance and heat resistance. A method of making the yarn includes combining a glass filament and metal filament in a core wrapped by a sheath.

High performance yarns and method of manufacture

A yarn is provided which includes a core formed of a glass material and a wrapping yarn wound about the core. The core has a roughened surface, which tends to engage and hold the wrapping yarn. The yarn may exhibit excellent strength, cut resistance and heat resistance, while providing a smooth finish. A method of making the yarn includes roughening the surface of the glass filament by various means.

Cut-resistant yarn and method of manufacture

A process for producing yarns that have enhanced resistance to unraveling and linting. The yarns are moved along guides through a needle loom where a series of needles engage the yarns. This engagement of the yarns by the needles causes the fibers of the yarns to become intermixed.

Method of needle punching yarns

A bacteriostatic filter cartridge having a porous core member about which is layered a yarn and/or a polyester membrane and/or melt blown web of polypropylene and/or a trilaminate polypropylene membrane, any or all of which may be impregnated with an antimicrobial agent. The filter cartridge is sized so as to fit tightly into a cartridge housing of a fluid filtration system. Fluid passing through the cartridge housing will be filtered by the filter cartridge to remove contaminants from the water and which prevents the growth of bacterial and other microorganisms on the filter media.

Bacteriostatic filter cartridge

An antimicrobial filter cartridge having a perforated core member wrapped with a first microporous membrane, which is in turn overwrapped with second and third microporous membranes. The membranes are covered with a criss-cross wrapping of antimicrobial treated yarn. The filter cartridge is sized so as to fit tightly into a cartridge housing of a fluid filtration system. Fluid passing through the cartridge housing will be filtered by the filter cartridge to remove microorganisms from the water and which prevents the growth of bacterial and other microorganisms on the filter media.

Antimicrobial filter cartridge

An antimicrobial filter cartridge having a perforated core member wrapped with a microporous membrane, which is overwrapped with a spiral wrapping of an antimicrobial agent impregnated yarn. The spiral wrapping is covered with a criss-cross wrapping of yarn. The filter cartridge is sized so as to fit tightly into a cartridge housing of a fluid filtration system. Fluid passing through the cartridge housing will be filtered by the filter cartridge to remove microorganisms from the water and which prevents the growth of microorganisms on the filter media.
