Patent number: 9809910Abstract: A warp knitted heat resistant separation fabric is provided, having at least two sets of warp yarns. A first set of warp yarns is positioned over the width of the fabric and formed with pillar stitches; and a second set of warp yarns positioned over the width of the fabric shows in its repeat in the fabric an underlap under at least two pillars that are formed by the first set of warp yarns.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2013Date of Patent: November 7, 2017Assignee: NV BEKAERT SAInventors: Daan De Keyzer, Filip Lanckmans, Frank De Ridder

Patent number: 9296640Abstract: A knitted fabric made from yarn comprising fibers. At least part of these are metal fibers. The yarn comprises at least 3 bundles or single yarns. The bundles or single yarns have an equivalent bundle diameter which are equal or differ maximally 40%. The fabric is used as a separation cloth (12) between mold (11) and glass (14), which is utilized in the process of forming glass plates, or for covering of press-on rings or press-rings and the means of transport by which glass plates are moved during the forming process. The use of yarns composed of least 3 bundles which more or less have the same equivalent bundle diameter reduces the risks for markings on the glass.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2011Date of Patent: March 29, 2016Assignee: NV BEKAERT SAInventors: Frank De Ridder, Filip Lanckmans, Wim Verbrugge

Publication number: 20160083285Abstract: A heat resistant separation fabric including stainless steel fibers. The stainless steel fibers are made out of an alloy comprising more than 12% by weight of chromium. The stainless steel fibers include an oxide skin. The atomic percentage of Cr at 5 nm depth of the oxide skin divided by the sum of the atomic percentages of Cr and Fe at 5 nm depth of the oxide skin, and multiplied with 100 to express as a percentage, is higher than 30%.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 13, 2014Publication date: March 24, 2016Applicant: NV BEKAERT SAInventors: Frank DE RIDDER, Filip LANCKMANS, Marcel POSTHUMUS
