A nylon 6.6 yarn suitable for a tire cord reinforcement for pneumatic tires includes higher than 12,0 g/dtex Tensile Reinforcement Index (TRI) and tenacity between 9,3 g/dtex-10,5 g/dtex, where the TRI is defined as: TRI (g/dtex)=Tenacity (g/dtex) +Stress at 7% Elongation. The nylon 6.6 yarn is suitable for using as tire cord reinforcement in pneumatic tires.

An article of apparel includes a multilayered knit fabric structure. The knit fabric structure includes a first knit layer and a second knit layer, and a resilient intermediate knit layer disposed between and coupling with the first knit layer and the second knit layer. The intermediate knit layer has a corrugated shape along a first direction of the intermediate knit layer with consecutive peaks that are oriented in opposing directions such that the peaks comprise a set of first peaks oriented in a first peak direction and a set of second peaks oriented in a second peak direction that opposes the first peak direction. The first peaks of the intermediate knit layer connect with the first knit layer and the second peaks of the intermediate knit layer connect with the second knit layer.

A yarn containing a potential-generating filament. The yarn is constructed such that a positive or negative surface electrical potential is generated by applying an external force to the yarn in an axial direction of the yarn, and constructed such that a controlled surface electrical potential is generated by a maintenance or release of the external force.

A de-icing assembly for a surface of an aircraft includes: a carcass with a first layer, a second layer, and a carcass centerline and a plurality of seams sewn into the carcass, wherein the plurality of seams join the first and second layers of the carcass together. The assembly includes a plurality of inflation passages formed by the plurality of seams and disposed between the first and second layers of the carcass. The system also includes a manifold fluidly connected to and disposed beneath the carcass, the manifold comprising a width and a manifold centerline oriented approximately perpendicular or parallel to the carcass centerline. The seams are sown by a stitchline formed of carbon nanotube yarn
