Abstract: A carpet product comprises a backing material and a face yarn, wherein the face yarn comprises synthetic carpet fibers and synthetic fibers having high moisture transport properties. Preferred face yarns are composed of a combination yarn comprising the synthetic carpet fibers commingled with the synthetic fibers having moisture transport properties. The carpet products have a texture and feel approximating that of conventional synthetic fiber facings, yet effectively transport moisture so that the carpets feel drier upon exposure to moisture.

Abstract: The base material can be obtained by means of the realisation, on a support made out of material or nonmaterial, of a system of two crossed orders, uniformly distributed, of rectilinear stitching carried out with a yarn having a metallic core inside. In this way, an incorporated shielding metallic screen made of metallic cores is obtained.

Abstract: A cleaning device and methodology therefor for cleaning a paper path surface upon which paper travels within a printing apparatus such as a computer printer, a photocopy machine, a fax machine, and the like. The cleaning device is a flexible substrate sheet having a first side and a second side, with the first side coated preferably in its entirety with an exposed adhesive having a tack strength between about 0.0002 and about 0.12 pound force-square inch. The second side of the substrate sheet can have laminated thereto a foam resin to provide a flexible thickness that assures pressured contact with all paper path surfaces to be cleaned. A lint-free cloth layer can be laminated to the foam resin if present, or the cloth layer can be laminated directly to the second surface of the sheet substrate. operability occurs as the substrate sheet is fed into the printing apparatus and travels there through along the paper-path surfaces upon which paper is conveyed.

Abstract: A laminated insole (2) for a footwear has an upper layer (4) of a resilient foam material having an outline (6) shaped for incorporation in the footwear, and a bottom layer of a fibrous mat (10) and having a shape conforming with the outline (6) of the upper layer (4). The fibrous mat (10) includes a multiplicity of fibers (12), a number of which penetrate the foam material of the upper layer (4) for bonding the bottom layer (10) to the upper layer (4), and a stiffening portion (14) for providing stiffness to the insole (2). Preferably, each of the fibers (12) of those penetrating the foam material (4) emerges from the outer surface (16) thereof and thereby provides a pilosity (17) thereon. The laminated product (2) is suitable for use as an insole as well as a slip-in insole in any footwear. It takes advantage of the resilient properties of the foam, the stiffness and thermoformability of the fibrous mat and the comfort provided by the pilosity covering the upper layer of foam.

Abstract: A plastic product comprising an inner core portion made of plastic and having a solid shape or a hollow shape including an internal cavity, and a fiber-reinforced plastic layer formed on inner and/or outer surfaces of the inner core portion, whereby the plastic product has light weight, high strength and excellent vibration suppressing and noise shielding ability.

Abstract: A material sheet assembly in which a label base attached to a release liner by means of an adhesive is set in roll form is used. In a step in which the material sheet assembly is continuously fed out, the release liner is released by leaving the adhesive on the label base, and the release liner is consecutively taken up. By using a noncontact-type printer, printing is effected on the adhesive surface of the label base separated from the release liner to form a printed label. The printed label is in such a form that the printed surface is disposed between the label base and an adherend. The labels can be attached immediately after they are manufactured, and they can be stored or transported by being taken up in roll form while an additional release liner is attached to the printed surface side.

Abstract: A reinforcing tape for a slide fastener and a slide fastener having a pair of fastener tapes whose end portions are reinforced with the reinforcing tapes are disclosed. On the end portion of a fastener tape to which a pin-and-box separator of a slide fastener is fitted, a transparent film layer formed of a thermoplastic elastomer or a thermoplastic resin and a fiber reinforcement layer formed of either a reticular sheet of monofilaments or a thin-layer non-woven fabric of fibers manufactured from a thermoplastic resin of the same type as the transparent film layer are superposed through the medium of an adhesive layer, with the transparent film layer constituting itself a surface layer.

Abstract: A fabric for tents consisting a gray woven from nylon or polyester filaments and a layer of coating composition including polyurethane, a pigment, an ultraviolet inhibitor, aluminum powders, ceramic powders, a fire retardant agent and a solvent can be protected from a yellowing appearance caused by ultraviolet rays and has a preferable color. The lifetime of the fabric can be extended. And the comparative low cost and short time are necessary for the process for preparing the fabric.

Abstract: The invention relates to drylaid nonwoven materials comprising bicomponent fibres comprising a low melting polyolefin component and a high melting polyolefin component, the low melting polyolefin component constituting at least a part of the surface of the fibre and comprising a non-grafted polyolefin component and a grafted polyolefin component, wherein the grafted polyolefin component has been grafted with an unsaturated dicarboxylic acid or an anhydride thereof, e.g. with maleic acid or maleic anhydride. The bicomponent fibres fibres have an excellent bonding affinity for natural fibres such as cellulose pulp fibres and allow the production of airlaid nonwovens with reduced generation of dust during the production process and with improved nonwoven strength properties.
