Knit reinforcing fabric

The present invention relates to a thermally-resistant woven fabric and/or multiple ply fabric sheet for use as single or outer layer of protective garments, of the type comprising an inside fabric layer and an outside fabric layer joined together by an array of connecting lines. The woven fabric and/or multiple ply fabric sheet comprise yarns, wherein said yarn comprises

Heat resistant outershell fabric

The present invention provides for a process for reducing the content of one or more residuals in aramid fibers or filaments, comprising, in this order, the steps of introducing the aramid fiber or filaments into a extraction solution adjusted to a pH ranging from of 2 to 7, adjusting the extraction solution and the aramid fibers or filaments to a temperature of to from 80&#xb0; C. to 140&#xb0; C., removing the aramid fibers or filaments from the extraction solution, introducing the aramid fiber or filaments into a first rinsing solution adjusted to a pH ranging from of 2 to 7, optionally comprising a detergent, adjusting the first rinsing solution and the aramid fibers and filaments to a temperature of from 70&#xb0; C. to 100&#xb0; C., removing the aramid fibers or filaments from the first rinsing solution.

Process for obtaining low residual aramid materials

The present invention relates to a heat, flame, and electric arc resistant fabric () for use as single or outer layer of protective garments. The fabric () of the invention comprises at least two separate single plies which are assembled together at predefined positions so as to build pockets (). The fabric () of the invention is made of materials independently chosen from the group consisting of aramid fibers and filaments, polybenzimidazol fibers and filaments, polyamidimid fibers and filaments, poly(paraphephenylene benzobisaxazole) fibers and filaments, phenol-formaldehyde fibers and filaments, melamine fibers and filaments, natural fibers and filaments, synthetic fibers and filaments, artificial fibers and filaments, glass fibers and filaments, carbon fibers and filaments, metal fibers and filaments, and composites thereof. Due to its peculiar structure, the fabric () according to the present invention can have a specific weight which is considerably lower than that of known fabrics having comparable mechanical and thermal properties.

Fabric for protective garments

Fabrics resistant to molten metal are provided, comprising non-melting base fabric treated with a composition comprising polymerisable polyurethane monomers, and ceramic particles.

Ceramic fabrics and methods for making them

This invention relates to a flame-resistant spun staple yarns and fabrics and garments comprising these yarns and methods of making the same. The yarns have 25 to 90 parts by weight of a polymeric staple fiber containing a structure derived from a monomer selected from the group consisting of 4,4'diaminodiphenyl sulfone, 3,3&#x2032;diaminodiphenyl sulfone, and mixtures thereof; and 10 to 75 parts by weight of a textile staple fiber having limiting oxygen index of 21 or greater, based on 100 parts by weight of the polymeric fiber and the textile fiber in the yarn.

Flame resistant spun staple yarns made from blends of fibers derived from diamino diphenyl sulfone and textile fibers and fabrics and garments made therefrom and methods for making same

A substantially torqueless composite dual core-spun yarn () is produced by introducing two slivers (A,B) forming a covering () together with a central () core in a spinning triangle (). The core () is fed overtwisted S or Z and the slivers (A,B) have an opposite Z or S twist corresponding to about 30% to 70% of the twist of the fed overtwisted core () that detwists during spinning. The inelastic core () is fed at controlled speed to compensate for the angle of feed and to compensate for detwisting, and is guided into the spinning triangle () by a guide groove () in a feed roller ().

Composite twist core-spun yarn and method and device for its production

This invention relates to heat and flame resistant single ply fabric for use as a single or outer layer of a protective garment for a wearer. The fabric comprises at least one warp system and at least two weft systems. The warp system comprises a blend of 60 to 90 wt-% poly-m-phenylenisophtalamid (meta-aramid) and 10 to 40 wt-% poly-p-phenylenterephtalamid (para-aramid). The first of the at least two weft systems comprises a blend of 85 to 95 wt-% meta-aramid and 5 to 15 wt-% para-aramid. The second of the at least two weft systems essentially comprises para-aramid.

A substantially torqueless composite dual core-spun yarn () has a substantially inelastic central hard core () covered with a dual-spun fiber covering (). The central hard core () has an elongation at break less than 50% and a Z or S twist, and the fiber covering () comprises fibers twisted on the core () with an S or Z twist opposite to that of the core. The opposite twists of the core () and of the covering () exert opposite and substantially equal torques. This yarn is produced by introducing two slivers (A,B) forming the covering () and a central core in a spinning triangle (). The core () is fed overtwisted S or Z and the slivers (A,B) have an opposite Z or S twist corresponding to about 30% to 70% of the twist of the fed overtwisted core () that detwists during spinning. The inelastic core () is fed at controlled speed to compensate for the angle of feed and to compensate for detwisting, and is guided into the spinning triangle () by a guide groove () in a feed roller ().
