  • Patent number: 5364701
    Abstract: Drawing, especially cold-drawing, or hot-drawing, or other heat-treatments, of spin-oriented crystalline polyester filaments, and particularly polyester feed yarns, that have been prepared by spinning at speeds of, e.g., 4 km/min, and have low shrinkage and no natural draw ratio in the conventional sense, provides useful technique for obtaining uniform filaments of desired denier and thereby provides improved flexibility to obtain filaments and yarns mixed with nylon filaments.

  • Patent number: 5261472
    Abstract: Drawing, especially cold-drawing, or hot-drawing or other heat-treatments of spin-oriented crystalline polyester filaments, and particularly polyester feed yarns, that have been prepared by spinning at speeds of, e.g., 4 kg/min, and have low shrinkage and no natural draw ratio in the conventional sense, provides useful technique for obtaining uniform drawn filaments of desired denier and thereby provides improved flexibility to obtain filaments and yarns of various denier. The resulting uniform filaments have useful properties that are improved in certain respects.

    Inventors: Benjamin H. Knox, James B. Noe
  • Patent number: 5019426
    Abstract: A method of sealing the surfaces of porous carbon and graphite articles by impregnation at ambient pressure using a treating solution comprising a high temperature polymerizable liquid resin. The liquid treating solution, when upon the surface of the article, is of sufficiently low viscosity to allow infiltration of the treating solution into the pores of the surface of the article. The treated article then undergoes a controlled heating cycle, which cures the infiltrated resin in situ. Subsequent treatments and surface conditioning techniques are utilized to produce a thin, level, liquid and gas impervious coating on the surfaces of the article.
