  • Patent number: 8308531
    Abstract: Disclosed are a polishing pad used in a CMP process of a planar material such as a silicon wafer, plate glass for a display, etc. and a method for manufacturing the same. The polishing pad comprises a non-woven fabric consisting of ultrafine fibers and elastomeric polymer impregnated into the fabric, on which the ultrafine fibers are raised and arranged to simultaneously satisfy the following conditions (I) to (III) such that the ultrafine fibers are oriented in a longitudinal direction to a central axis: The polishing pad of the present invention includes ultrafine fibers, which are arranged at a relatively wide orientation angle and have pores formed therebetween without requiring alternative processes for forming the pores, thus, exhibits excellent polishing performance and low occurrence of scratches during a polishing process.

  • Publication number: 20120135653
    Abstract: Disclosed is an artificial leather containing a non-woven fabric composed of ultra micro fibers and impregnated with an polymeric elastomer, wherein a residual shrinkage ratio of the artificial leather at 30% stretching is 10% or less in a machine direction and is 20% or less in a cross-machine direction. The artificial leather has optimal residual shrinkage ratios, and specifically a residual shrinkage ratio in a machine direction of 10% or less and a residual shrinkage ratio in a cross-machine direction of 20% or less, when the artificial leather is stretched by 30%. As a result, the artificial leather which has stretched during the process for shape-formation can easily contract and restore, and thus avoid creasing even when applied to the products having many curved parts.

  • Patent number: 7667843
    Abstract: A method of evaluating the sensitivity grade of an interior material used in vehicles comprises: evaluating sensitivity properties of an interior material before providing noise factors; evaluating sensitivity properties of the interior material after providing noise factors; averaging each of the sensitivity properties evaluated before the provision of noise factors and after the provision of noise factors to obtain the average value (safety factor) of each of the sensitivity properties; comparing the average value of each of the sensitivity properties with a preset target value of each of the sensitivity properties to compute a target value achievement level of each of the sensitivity properties; and determining the sensitivity grade of the interior material based on the sensitivity property with the lowest target value achievement level.

  • Publication number: 20080293316
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a suede-like artificial leather with excellent strength and elongation properties. The suede-like artificial leather comprises a composite sheet having polyurethane filled therein, the composite sheet comprising: a non-woven fabric of ultrafine short fibers entangled with each other and having a thickness less than 0.3 denier; and a woven or knitted fabric placed in the non-woven fabric, entangled with the ultrafine short fibers of the non-woven fabric, and having an constant load elongation of 10 to 30% at a load of 8 kgf, wherein the tensile strength in longitudinal and lateral directions is 35 to 60 kgf/50 i?ini and the constant load elongation in longitudinal and lateral directions is 8 to 25%. The suede-like artificial leather is useful as materials for vehicles and furniture requiring durability because of its excellent tensile strength and constant load elongation.
