  • Patent number: 11370194
    Abstract: The present invention concerns a process for preparing a microfibrous multilayer composite material comprising: 1) realizing a non-woven microfibrous semi-finished product made up of microfibres of one or more polymers dispersed in a polyurethane matrix (semi-finished product IE); 2) cutting the semi-finished product lengthwise into two layers; 3) buffing at least one layer on one side (side N) so as to extract the microfibres and form the nap, thereby obtaining a semi-finished raw product; 4) cutting at least one semi-finished raw product lengthwise parallel to the surfaces, producing an non-woven intermediate product, containing the buffed side (side N) and a waste layer (containing the side that has not been buffed—side S); 5) coupling the non-woven intermediate product (on the side opposite side N) to a fabric made of polyethylene terephthalate fibres by means of the application of a thermoplastic polyurethane adhesive that can be cross-linked between the non-woven intermediate product and the fabric; 6)

  • Publication number: 20200240076
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing a microfibrous non-woven synthetic suede-like fabric, which does not require the use of organic solvents and which enables a soft finished product to be obtained that is provided with a good hand, that is elastic and with excellent resistance to yellowing and high durability.

  • Patent number: 10400391
    Abstract: The present invention refers to a process for the preparation of a non-woven microfibrous suede-like synthetic fabric that does not require the use of organic solvents and that makes it possible to obtain a finished product offering a good hand, excellent resistance to yellowing and high durability. It comprises needle-punching a felt of sea/island fibers, (a) impregnation with hot aqueous solution of PVOH having a degree of saponification of at least 94% or (b) impregnation with hot water followed by impregnation with cold PUR, removing the sea component, impregnating with PUR, coagulating the PUR, removing the PVOH, grinding the surface, dyeing and splitting in two sheets.

  • Patent number: 8436340
    Abstract: A cross-point cell nanoarray comprises a mechanical support substrate, first and second orders of uniformly spaced parallel electrodes separated by an electrically active organic film and orthogonally arranged to form an array of cross-point cells, individually addressable by biasing the respective opposite electrodes, by selecting them among those of the respective orders, over a planar area of the substrate. The active organic resin layer includes a block copolymer of a major component resin and of at least one different minor component resin, configured to promote formation of large-scale ordered nanostructures through phase segregation, due to block incompatibility and self-assembly properties of the blocks. Polymeric bocks of the ordered nanostructures configured to sequester conductive nanoparticles and/or conductive nanoparticle clusters originally dispersed in the component organic resins, subtracting them from the surrounding matrix copolymer.
