Elasterell (officially "elasterell-p") is an alternative to the generic term "polyester" for a specific subgroup of inherently elastic, multicomponent textile fibers. [1]The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) in November 2002 issued a final rule which establishes the name. [1]
Spray paint being applied to a piece of equipment An LVLP system spray gun. Spray painting is a painting technique in which a device sprays coating material (paint, ink, varnish, etc.) through the air onto a surface.
Spandex, Lycra, or elastane is a synthetic fiber known for its exceptional elasticity. It is a polyether - polyurea copolymer that was invented in 1958 by chemist Joseph Shivers at DuPont . [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]
Spray paint (formally aerosol paint) is paint that comes in a sealed, pressurized container and is released in an aerosol spray when a valve button is depressed. The propellant is what the container of pressurized gas is called. When the pressure holding the gas is released through the valve, the aerosol paint releases as a fine spray. [1]
Bicomponent fiber is made of two materials, utilizing desired properties of each material. [1] [2]Such fibers can be created by extrusion spinning. [3] [4] [5]One or both materials may remain in the finished product, or one material may be dissolved, leaving only one material remaining.
Elastolefin is a fiber composed of at least 95% (by weight) of macromolecules partially cross-linked, made of ethylene and at least one other olefin.When stretched to one and a half times its original length, it recovers rapidly to its original length.
Sorona is DuPont de Nemours, Inc.'s brand of Triexta, a subclass of polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT) [1] named and commercialized in 2000. [2] The fibers are soft and stain-resistant while exhibiting high strength and stiffness.
TPU has many applications, including automotive instrument panels, caster wheels, power tools, sporting goods, medical devices, drive belts, footwear, inflatable rafts, fire hoses, buffer weight tips and a variety of extruded film, sheet and profile uses.
