Abstract: A fabric for use in arc and flame protection, and a process for producing a fire resistant fabric are provided. The fabric is comprised of: more than 15% aramids; less than 50% modacrylic; less than 50% cellulose; and less than 15% nylon. The process comprises shredding recycled fire resistant garments into fibers; creating yarn from the shredded fibers; weaving the yarn into fabric; and knitting the yarn to produce new garments. The fabric may be used to produce fire-resistant garments worn by workers in many industries such as the oil and gas.

Abstract: A fabric for use in arc and flame protection, and a process for producing a fire resistant fabric are provided. The fabric includes at least 70 wt % aramid fiber; less than 40 wt % modacrylic; 8 wt % nylon; and 2 wt % anti-static. The process includes shredding recycled fire resistant garments into fibers; creating yarn from the shredded fibers; weaving the yarn into fabric; and knitting the yarn to produce new garments. The fabric may be used to produce fire-resistant garments worn by workers in many industries such as the oil and gas.

Abstract: A fabric for use in arc and flame protection, and a process for producing a fire resistant fabric are provided. The fabric is made from at least 70 weight percent (wt %) aramid fiber; less than 40 wt % modacrylic; 8 wt % nylon; and 2 wt % anti-static. The aramid fiber is made from recycled aramid fiber from recycled fire resistant garments, and virgin aramid fiber. The fabric may be used to produce fire-resistant garments worn by workers in many industries such as the oil and gas.

Abstract: Safe transportation holder and package for explosive devices such as blasg caps. Each cap is contained in an internal cavity in a holder, and surrounded by radially-spaced, elastomeric walls. The holders are arrayed in a container, and absorb the energy released by accidental detonation of one cap to prevent sympathetic detonation of others in the package.
