HUEC 2040 : Notes Test 2
Document Summary
9/19/2012 3:28:00 pm: modify molecular structure & crystallinity, binder staple fibers, polyester with a very low melting point, mixed with regular staple fibers, heated. Long elongation fibers: reinforcing fibers to blend with cellulosic fibers. Incorporate conductor of electrons: added to fiber-polymer raw materials, durable protection, sunlight resistance. Incorporate sunlight stabilizers: added to solution dope, flame retardant. Incorporate flame resistant compound: antibacterial, antimicrobial fibers. Incorporate a compound that protects from bacterial growth: modifications of fiber spinning, self-crimping fibers, wet-spun fibers, adding a modified compound, melt spun fibers, adding heat or cold to one side. Spiral crimp: fiberfill, outstanding springiness, bicomponent-bigeneric fibers, quilted fabrics, bedspreads robes, complex modification, bicomponent fibers, one fiber incorporates two polymers, chemically different, phy. If components represent 2 different generic classes- are bicomponent bigeneric: side-by-side or bilaterial, core-sheath or sheath-core, surround one another, matrix foil, performance fibers [ex.
