Trevira High Tenacity for Rubber Reinforcement--New Yarn Types, New Applications.

Hoechst has developed a range of polyester products for rubber reinforcement that exhibit strength properties similar to that of nylon and dimensional stability characteristics similar to those of rayon. The broad property profile of Trevira high tenacity yarns enables specific solutions to reinforcement problems and the development of en..

New Heat and Flame-Resistant Fibre.

Although condensation resins formed from melamine and formaldehyde are typically too brittle to be used in fiber applications, BASF has developed Basofil, a heat and flame resistant fiber based on melamine. Basofil has a fiber diameter of between 8 and 20 microns, a density of 1.4 grams per cubic meter, a tenacity of between 2 and 4 centi..

Lyocell Fiber : Could it Eventually Replace Viscose?

According to the chairman of Lenzing, the leading producer of viscose rayon and modal fibers, lyocell has the potential to surpass both cotton and viscose rayon in most applications. H. Stepniczka bases his prediction on key advantages offered by lyocell fibers, including higher performance characteristics, environmental friendliness, and..

Basofil Fiber : A Melamine-Based Fiber for High Temperature Applications.

BASF's melamine based Basofil fiber combines excellent fire protection and heat stability with good chemical hydrolytic, and ultraviolet radiation resistance. These properties make Basofil an outstanding candidate for any high temperature application. The fact that Basofil does not shrink, melt, or drip when exposed to flames enhances its..

New Du Pont Fibres Make Better Filters.

Du Pont's Nomex Delta Micro 0.78 dtex aramid fiber offers excellent resistance to high temperatures. In filters, Nomex Delta Micro combines a high separation efficiency and low differential pressure to achieve improved surface filtration at low costs. The ultrafine fiber enables the development of dense, microporous, needled felts with ex..

Lenzing Lyocell Fibres - Potential for Technical Textiles.

Lenzing obtains its lyocell cellulosic fibers through an environmentally friendly solvent spinning process with N-Methyl-morpholine-N-oxide, an organic solvent. Lyocell fibers possess a higher tenacity than either polyester or viscose fibers. Lyocell's wettability and water retention values are intermediate between those of cotton and vis..

Tencel - A New Future for Cellulosics.

Courtaulds researchers have developed Tencel, a manmade cellulosic fiber that can be used in apparel, home furnishings, industrial fabrics, nonwoven fabrics, and papermaking products. Tencel is a lyocell product comprised of cellulose based fibers, which are produced using the solvent dissolution process involving N-methyl morpholine oxid..

Aramid Fibres.

Aramid fibers comprise two categories--meta-aramid fibers, which include polyamide-imide fibers, and para-aramid fibers. DuPont developed the first aramid fiber, Nomex, in 1962. Another early fiber development was Conex by Teijin, which is based on the same core organic structure as Nomex. The only commercial polyamide-imide fiber is Kerm..
