Abstract: An impact beam comprises a polymer matrix and a reinforcing fabric, and further comprises at least one layer of polymer material, especially continuous fibre reinforced material (organosheet or uni directional tape or laminate) being positioned between the reinforcing fabric and the exterior surface of the impact beam in order to keep the reinforcing fabric away from the exterior surface of the impact beam.

Abstract: An impact beam (40) comprises a polymer matrix and a reinforcing structure, the structure comprises a number of metal reinforcing cords (22) and non-metal elongated binding elements (26) or non-metal coated elongated binding elements arranged between the cords for holding the metal reinforcing cords together. Each of the metal cords has a metallic cross-sectional area Ametal, and the ratio of the metallic area Ametal to the area of the circumscribed circle (TTdcord2/4) is at least 0.60. The metal cords further have a non chemically binding with the matrix, and non-metal elongated binding elements or non-metal coated elongated binding elements have a chemical bond with said polymer matrix. By not having a mechanical interlocking and a non chemically binding with the matrix, the whole metal cord is stressed and not a local point while in the latter case the metal cord would locally break due to the very high impact forces.

Abstract: A textile structure for the reinforcement of a polymer material The invention relates to textile structure (100) for the reinforcement of a polymer material. The textile structure comprises in a first direction a number of bundles arranged in mutual substantially parallel position. The bundles comprise n metal filaments. The bundles have a main axis and a non-circular cross-section. For each of the bundles, the n metal filaments of a particular bundle are arranged predominantly parallel with the main axis of this particular bundle. The structure further comprises elongated positioning elements (106) to hold the bundles in mutual substantially parallel position and to hold the n metal filaments of a particular bundle predominantly parallel with the main axis of the bundle. The invention further relates to a method of manufacturing such a textile structure and to the use of a textile structure for the reinforcement of a polymer material.

Abstract: An impact beam (70) comprises a polymer matrix and a reinforcing structure, the structure further comprises a number of metal reinforcing cords (11) and non-metal elongated binding elements (13) or non-metal coated elongated binding elements arranged between the cords for holding the metal reinforcing cords together. Part of the non-metal elongated binding elements is positioned at the exterior surface of the impact beam in order to keep the metal reinforcing cords away from the surface of the part. The impact beam may also comprise a non-steel distance keeper (66) being positioned at the exterior surface of the impact beam in order to keep the metal reinforcing cords away from the surface of the part. The non-steel distance keeper can either be a non-metal coating on said metal reinforcing cords or non-metal elongated binding elements (55) arranged between the cords for holding the metal reinforcing cords together.

Abstract: A hybrid fabric comprises in one direction high modulus elongated elements and in another direction low modulus elongated elements and further low modulus elongated elements keep the high modulus elongated elements at a uniform distance. The low modulus elongated dements have an elongation at break of more than 10% in order to allow stretching of the fabric in the other direction while maintaining the high modulus elongated elements at a uniform distance. The hybrid fabric is particularly suitable to form a two-dimensional or three-dimensional shaped structure. The hybrid fabric may be used in a carcass of a tire.
