A knitted textile (2) having a first layer (4) including a first yarn (12) with a thermoplastic composition integrally formed with a second layer (6) including a second yarn (14), the first yarn (12) forming an array of knitted patterns (16) defining voids (8) through the first layer (4) to the second layer (6). The first layer (4) may be heat treated to form a film. (24). Treatment of the first layer (4) may change zonal and directional tensile properties of the knitted textile (2). The Poisson's ratio of the knitted textile (2) may be greater than or equal to zero in a first axis (32) and/or a second axis (30), before and/or after treatment. Articles of apparel, including articles of footwear (26) and garments incorporating the knitted textile (2), and methods of forming the knitted textiles (2) and articles are disclosed.

Stabilizing a fabric layer and simultaneously laminating a fabric to a bulky and cushioning backing layer using multiple internal adhesive layers placed within the fabric layer forms a composite textile. The melt index, weight and chemical compatibility of the adhesive layers versus the adjacent fabric sub-strata and the backing layer are adjusted to achieve the desired penetration of molten adhesive, mechanical bonding and chemical bonding. An optional external adhesive layer with a low melt index can be added between the fabric layer and the backing layer to facilitate attachment to a highly porous backing.

The invention lies in the technical field of the textile industry and relates to a textile carrier material for adhesive tapes having a formed tear-off edge, which can be used in the automotive industry for wrapping cable sets, elongate material and lines. The problem addressed by the invention is to provide a textile carrier material for adhesive tapes having improved longitudinal strength while having improved manual tearability and stitch run stop. The problem is solved by a textile carrier material which has at least one areal region with longitudinal strength and a transverse tear-off region in the form of a tear-off edge, wherein the areal region with longitudinal strength has longitudinal stitches, produced by means of pillar stitching, of one or more consolidation threads, and wherein the transverse tear-off region has been formed at least by one or more consolidation threads formed with at least one lateral offset stitch, which are arranged at an angle of 1° to 90° to the consolidation threads arranged in a longitudinally oriented manner.

A greenhouse screen strips of film material that are interconnected by a yarn system of transverse threads and longitudinal threads by means of knitting, warp-knitting or weaving process to form a continuous product, wherein at least some of the strips comprise a film material in the form of a single- or multilayer polyester film is disclosed. The film material has a transparency of at least 93.5% and is provided with at least a first anti-reflective coating or layer on a first side of the film material.

The invention relates to a method and a device for producing an annular multiaxial laid fabric and to an annular object produced therewith. The object of the invention is therefore to create a method and a device for forming a multiaxial laid fabric for annular structures which has no twisting or displacement of the thread layers. Furthermore, it should no longer be necessary to close a butt join or overlap separately to form a closed ring of the multiaxial laid fabric. This object is achieved in that at least a lower thread layer (2a) and an upper thread layer in the form of an endless thread array or an endless single thread, or in the form of thread-array sections or single-thread sections, are laid around the entire circumference of two mutually spaced ring elements (3) with differing thread orientations, and the first and upper thread layers (2a, 2b) are then fixed to each other at points.

A stitchbonded washable towel made from a stitchbonded fabric having a cellulosic nonwoven sheet of cellulosic fibers, and an integrated nonwoven sheet of an outer sublayer of wood pulp fibers, and an inner layer of textile fibers substantially entangled with the wood pulp fibers, and confronting the cellulosic nonwoven sheet of cellulosic fibers. The stitchbonded fabric as uses a pattern of stitching yarns that fixes the cellulosic nonwoven sheet to the integrated nonwoven sheet. A post-treatment of the stitchbonded fabric in a heated aqueous solution containing soil release polymer gathers the fabric into the towel, and provides stain and soil re-deposition resistance.

The present invention provides a mop cleaning cloth and a method for manufacturing the same. The mop cleaning cloth comprises, sequentially from bottom to top, a base cloth layer, a water-absorption layer and a dirt removal layer. The dirt removal layer is formed by high terry fabrics and low terry fabrics. The ratio of the terry height of the high terry fabrics to the terry height of the low terry fabrics is 1.1-5:1. The high terry fabrics have a terry height of 2-20 mm and low terry fabrics have a terry height of 1-10 mm. The water-absorption layer is formed by a water-absorption fabric made from water-absorption fibers. The base cloth layer is formed by a terry fabric. The manufacturing method is simple, and the mop cleaning cloth is easy to manufacture and has the advantages of being small in resistance, high in water absorptivity and dirt collection and removal capacity, and the like.

A knitted textile having a first layer including a first yarn with a thermoplastic composition integrally formed with a second layer including a second yarn, the first yarn forming an array of knitted patterns defining voids through the first layer to the second layer. The first layer may be heat treated to form a film. Treatment of the first layer may change zonal and directional tensile properties of the knitted textile. The Poisson's ratio of the knitted textile may be greater than or equal to zero in a first axis and/or a second axis, before and/or after treatment. Articles of apparel, including articles of footwear and garments incorporating the knitted textile, and methods of forming the knitted textiles and articles are disclosed.

A stitched multi-axial reinforcement and a method of producing a stitched multi-axial reinforcement. The stitched multi-axial reinforcement may be used in all such applications that reinforcements are generally needed and especially in such applications where either Vacuum Infusion technology or Resin Transfer Molding (RTM) technology for distributing the resin in the mold is used. The stitched multi-axial reinforcement is especially applicable in the manufacture of wind turbine blades, boats, sporting equipment, storage tanks, bus, trailer, train and truck panels, etc., and generally in all such structures that are subjected to stress in more than one direction.
