Abstract: A press cover or jacket includes at least a first and a second polymer layer. The first polymer layer is a radially outermost polymer layer as seen relative to the longitudinal axis of the press cover and has a thickness that is at most 60% of the overall thickness of the press cover as seen in the radial direction of the press cover. The first polymer layer includes grooves or holes which are incorporated in the radially outermost lateral surface thereof and the depth of the grooves or holes, as seen in the radial direction of the press cover, have a depth that corresponds at most to 95% of the thickness of the first polymer layer. A press roll, a shoe press and a method of using a press cover are also provided.

Abstract: The invention relates to a press jacket comprising at least one polymer layer, where the polymer layer comprises, or has been produced from, a polyurethane, where the polyurethane has been formed from a prepolymer and a crosslinking agent, and the prepolymer is a reaction product of phenylene 1,4-diisocyanate and of a polyol, where the crosslinking agent comprises the following components: a first component comprising 1,4-butanediol or 1,4-hydroquinone bis(2-hydroxyethyl) ether (HQEE), a second component comprising at least one aliphatic diamine, a third component comprising at least one alkanolamine.

Abstract: A press cover or jacket includes at least one first polymer layer. The polymer layer contains or has been produced from a polyurethane, and the polyurethane has been formed from a prepolymer and a crosslinker. The prepolymer is a reaction product of naphthalene 1,5-diisocyanate or phenylene 1,4-diisocyanate and at least one polyol selected from a polycarbonate polyol, a polytetramethylene ether glycol, polyether polycarbonate polyol or mixtures thereof. A press using the press cover is also provided.

Abstract: A press jacket for a press roller, in particular for a press roller of a shoe press for dewatering a fibrous material web, in particular a paper, cardboard, tissue or pulp web, or a transport band, in particular for a machine for producing or treating a fibrous material web, in particular a paper, cardboard or tissue machine, includes at least one layer containing polyurethane which contains a polyurethane matrix with a mixture of at least two prepolymers. Each prepolymer is a reaction product of two different polyols with a polyisocyanate.

Abstract: A press belt for a shoe-press device for dewatering or smoothing a fibrous web, in particular a paper, cardboard, or tissue web. The press belt has a fiber-reinforced plastic matrix. On account of the fiber-reinforced plastic matrix containing at least in a partial region at least one polyurethane material and polydimethyl siloxane and silicon dioxide microparticles as additives, resistance to abrasion, the tendency toward developing fissures and toward fissure growth and/or resistance in relation to media present in a paper-making machine can be improved.

Abstract: The invention provides a press roller, having a roller jacket made of plastic material, for treating a web of paper, board, tissue or another fibrous material in a machine for the manufacturing and/or finishing thereof. The aim of the invention is to enlarge the application fields of the press roller. Said aim is achieved, whereby the outer surface of the roller jacket is at least partially provided with a temperature-resistant protective layer and/or covering.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a roll cover for a calender or press roll for treating a material web. The roll cover includes a layer of elastomeric material having filaments running approximately longitudinally with respect to a web run direction and transversely to the web run direction embedded for reinforcement, and at least one layer of additional reinforcing filaments embedded in at least some sections of the elastomeric layer. The additional reinforcing filaments run at an angle between 20° and 70° with respect to the web run direction. The layer is arranged to form roll ends connectable to a roll axle. The instant abstract is neither intended to define the invention disclosed in this specification nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.
