Publication number: 20040022996Abstract: Bi-constituent fibers having a cationic dyeable nylon, usually Type 6 nylon adequately sulfonated, as the major component with an intimate melt blend of a minor amount of a polyester are dyed with an anionic dye to improve lightfastness, ozone resistance and to provide resistance to acid-type stains. The fibers may be tufted into carpets that are resistant to acid-type stains. Both components of the bi-constituent fiber may come from recycled sources so that 100% of the fiber, excluding processing additives, is based on post consumer recycled polymer.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 2, 2002Publication date: February 5, 2004Inventor: William G.

Patent number: 5993523Abstract: Metal particles useful for coating compositions, particularly aqueous coating compositions, are produced by treating the metal particles with a molybdate pigment. The molybdate pigment reacts with the surface of the metal particles. The molybdate pigment may be a salt such as a molybdate, phosphomolybdate or silicomolybdate salt, and the salt may include a multivalent cation such as calcium, strontium, barium, magnesium, zinc and aluminum. The metal particles show improved resistance to attack by water.Type: GrantFiled: June 5, 1998Date of Patent: November 30, 1999Assignee: Silberline Manufacturing Co., Inc.Inventors: Craig B.

Patent number: 5912409Abstract: Stain-resistant, lightfast nylon carpet is prepared by dyeing cationic-dyeable nylon fibers by applying a print paste containing an acid dye or a premetallized acid dye at a pH of from about 2.0 to about 6-5 and fixing the dye to the fibers, forming the printed nylon fibers into a carpet, applying a print paste containing an acid dye or premetallized acid dye and dyeing the nylon fibers contacted with the print pastes and thereafter heating the dyeladen fibers to fix the dye into the fibers. Stain-resistant lightfast nylon yarns are prepared by printing cationic-dyeable yarn with a premetallized acid dye at a pH of about 4.0 to less than about 6.5 then fixing the dye to the yarn.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 1996Date of Patent: June 15, 1999Assignee: Burlington Industries, Inc.Inventor: William G.

Patent number: 5558705Abstract: A colored metallic pigment composition includes metallic particles which have been treated with a mixture of pigment particles and wax. A polymeric shell is formed on the treated metal particles by means of an organometallic coupling agent. The coupling agent includes a readily-hydrolyzable group which is capable of binding to the metal particle surface, and a relatively non-hydrolyzable group which serves as a binding site for the polymeric shell.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 1994Date of Patent: September 24, 1996Assignee: Silberline Manufacturing Co., Inc.Inventors: Craig B.
