Textile uses are a relatively stable area and consist of the lamination of polyester foams to textile products, usually by flame lamination or electronic heat sealing techniques. Flexible or semirigid foams are used in engineered packaging in the form of special slab material. Flexible foams are also used to make filters (reticulated foam), sponges, scmbbers, fabric softener carriers, squeegees, paint appHcators, and directly appHed foam carpet backing. 

In order for VGCF to be suecessfully incorporated into engineering composites, it must be available in forms which composite fabricators are equipped to handle. Since VGCF is bulky and discontinuous as produced, it is not amenable to the textile processing used for continuous carbon and glass fiber. Thus fiber... 

PBT is used for textile applications due to its stretchability, increased crystallinity and improved dyeability. It is introduced in the production of carpets and stretchable fabrics, where a certain degree of elasticity is desired. PBT is used preferably for the production of engineering plastics due to its combination of dimensional stability, tensile strength, increased flexibility and fast crystallization rate.

A COLLECTION OF PERSIAN TEXTILE FRAGMENTS has been a part of the historic fabric collection in the Department of Consumer Affairs at Auburn University for a number of years. One of us (F. J. D.) initiated an investigation to determine how the fabrics came to be in the collection and what were their origins. The answer to the first question is incomplete. Apparently the textiles were originally donated to the Department of Textile Engineering by Oliver W. Brantley. Because of interest in the historic aspects, the collection was loaned to the Department of Consumer Affairs shortly thereafter. Brantley had made notes of identification that accompanied each of the 64 pieces in the collection. Just who Brantley was and how he came to possess the fabrics is still, after extensive inquiries, not known. 

Ni(P) is used as an underlayer in high-density metallic memory disk fabrication to improve the mechanical finish of the surface. Thus, hardness, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance have been major properties determining the technological applications of electroless Ni(P) in the electronic, aerospace (stators for jet engines), automotive, machinery, oil and gas production, power generation, printing, and textile industries. 

The field of industrial plasma engineering has grown in recent years. The uses are motivated by plasma s ability to accomplish industrially relevent results more efficiently and cheaply than competing processes. The research program concerning plasma treatment of textile materials was launched at the Polish Textile Institute in 1973 to improve the soil release properties of double jersey fabrics from textunsed polyester yams. The first experiments with wool date back to 1980 to replace the chlorination in fabric preparation for printing. Tliree machines for continuous plasma treatment of wool top have been developed as follows ...
