Abstract: A method and an apparatus are provided for forming sheet material that can be used as a stiffener. The sheet material may be unitary and is formed from a material that exhibits appropriate resiliency, stiffness and shape retention. The sheet material preferably is formed with a profiled die so that at least one edge of the stiffener is chamfered. The profiled forming and cutting die may be part of press or part of a roll former.
Abstract: A process of making a fabric based stiffener material having thermal adhesive properties on its top and bottom surfaces which is based on (a) contacting a non-woven fabric with a latex forming resin and a finely divided powder adhesive polymer to form a latex saturated non-woven fabric; and (b) removing the excess latex from the non-woven fabric formed in step (a); and (c) drying the product of step (b).
