  • Patent number: 10934452
    Abstract: A surface marker resin formulation is provided that includes a linear aromatic polyester or a co-polymer thereof present in an amount of 10 to 45 total weight percent. The resin is dissolved or dispersed in a solvent. A colorant package is also dissolved or dispersed in the solvent. Upon drying of the solvent a mark is provided on a surface that can alert a user as to relative movement between articles defining the surface. A process of marking a surface includes two articles being brought into a pre-selected alignment to define a surface. A continuous bead is applied to the surface. The solvent evaporates to a state of dry-to-touch in a time of between 1 and 30 minutes to mark the surface.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6887334
    Abstract: A process for forming thin film laminations of thin fluoropolymer films to receiver sheets, more particularly, the production of very thin, transferable fluoropolymer films. A thin fluoropolymer base layer is applied onto a support layer, which may be a thicker film. The support layer/thin base layer is then laminated to a receiver sheet, followed by stripping away the support layer, leaving the base film on the receiver sheet.

  • Patent number: 6872276
    Abstract: A process for transferring a thin polymeric film to either woven or non-woven fabrics by first coextruding the thin polymeric film with a plastic support layer, then adhesively laminating the polymeric film to a fabric, followed by delaminating the support layer. The thin base layer remaining on the fabric imparts desired properties to the fabric while maintaining the soft feel, or drapeability, of the fabric, as opposed to lamination of thicker polymeric films to fabrics.
