Abstract: A fabric having a base layer of a textile made from yarns of a biodegradable polymer, and a visible layer having a biodegradable film that is placed on the base layer as a separate layer, the yarns of the textile being multifilament yarns with a strength of more than 40 cN/tex measured according to DIN EN ISO 2062.

Abstract: A polyphenylene sulfide multifilament yarn having a filament linear density of 5 dtex to 30 dtex, an overall linear density of 500 dtex to 2500 dtex, a breaking tenacity in the range of 50 cN/tex to 80 cN/tex and an elongation at break of 8% to 16% for a yarn with a breaking tenacity in the range of 60 cN/tex to 80 cN/tex and an elongation at break of 16% to 30% for a yarn with a breaking tenacity in the range of 50 cN/tex to 60 cN/tex.

Abstract: A process to manufacture a reinforcing element provided with a cured adhesive composition, a reinforcing element provided with a cured adhesive composition, and a rubber article including the reinforcing element. The manufacturing process includes the steps of providing a reinforcing element, treating the reinforcing element with a composition that includes an aqueous dispersion of components, optionally drying the treated reinforcing element, and curing at least two of the components.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing a polyphenylene sulfide multifilament yarn, a polyphenylene sulfide multifilament yarn and the use of a polyphenylene sulfide multifilament yarn. The process for producing a polyphenylene sulfide multifilament yarn is characterized in that only after time period between 0.1 sec and 0.3 sec after leaving the spinneret the filaments of the spun yarn are subjected to an active cooling stage. The Polyphenylene sulfide multifilament yarn having a filament linear density of 5 dtex to 30 dtex, an overall linear density of 500 dtex to 2500 dtex, a breaking tenacity in the range of 50 cN/tex to 80 cN/tex and an elongation at break of 8% to 16% for a yarn with a breaking tenacity in the range of 60 cN/tex to 80 cN/tex and an elongation at break of 16% to 30% for a yarn with a breaking tenacity in the range of 50 cN/tex to 60 cN/tex.
