A cooling fabric including a moisture-permeable inner surface layer, a spacer fabric and an outer surface layer, wherein the outer surface layer has an air permeability of at most 250 l/dm2/min at 500 Pa measured according to ISO 9237 and wherein the spacer fabric comprises monofilaments extending across the spacer fabric, wherein the monofilaments have a linear density of at least 250 dtex and wherein the monofilaments are present at a density of at most 800 monofilaments per square-inch.

Cooling fabric

A method of manufacturing a penetration-resistant article that includes a textile fabric made from aramid fibers finished with finish solids. The finish solids include a carbonic acid polyester. The penetration-resistant article can be a fragment protection mat, a bullet-proof vest, a flak jacket, a stab-resistant vest, or a combination thereof.

Methods for non-destructive testing of synthetic ropes is described, where the rope in use is subjected to X-ray, terahertz, permanent magnetic field or electromagnetic analysis to determine a pattern, the results of the analysis are compared with a standard pattern determined by the analysis, and the results of the comparison are used in determining whether the rope is fit for use; where the rope comprises at least two types of fibers, the first fiber type has a density which differs from the density of the second fiber type and the second fiber type is of the same polymer material as the first fiber type, but provided with a high-density or low-density material. Ropes suitable for use in this method are also described.

Method for non-destructive testing of synthetic ropes and rope suitable for use therein

A textile fabric made from aramid fibers finished with a finishing agent. The finishing agent includes a carbonic acid polyester. The textile fabric can be incorporated into a penetration-resistant article. The penetration-resistant article can be a fragment protection mat, a bullet-proof vest, a flak jacket, a stab-resistant vest, or a combination thereof.

Textile fabric made from aramid fibers and the use thereof

A catheter, such as an intravascular catheter, includes a longitudinally pre-oriented tubular substrate and reinforcing means surrounding and in contact with the substrate, the reinforcing means wound over the substrate, and a tubular superstrate surrounding the reinforcing means forcing the reinforcing means against the substrate and maintaining the reinforcing means wound over the substrate. The reinforcing means is a micro-tape having a width less than 0.5 mm and includes a filament layer having a cross sectional aspect ratio (width/height) of 2 to 20, wherein the filaments are fixated by a cured or solidified resin or wax, which constitutes 2 to 40 wt % of the micro-tape.

Intravascular catheter comprising a reinforcing micro-tape

A method for making a flexible fibrous continuous tape containing 60 to 98 wt % fiber based on the weight of the tape, from multifilament yarn selected from aramid, glass, aromatic polyester, and rigid rod polymer, comprising the steps: a1) spreading the filaments of the yarn to obtain a filament layer having a cross sectional aspect ratio (w/h) of 2 to 2000; and b1) treating the spread filaments with a curable resin, or a liquid thermoplastic resin or wax; or a2) treating the yarn with the curable resin, or the liquid thermoplastic resin or wax; and b2) spreading the filaments of the yarn to obtain a filament layer having a cross sectional aspect ratio (w/h) of 2 to 2000; followed by c) fixating the filaments by curing or solidifying the resin to obtain the tape, wherein steps a1-b1, respectively a2-b2, and c are performed in-line.
