A fabric comprising a cut-resistant polymeric coating including by weight 1 to 10 percent para-aramid particles, the particles having an average particle size of 20 to 500 microns.

A thermal-moisture comfortable polyester FDY for summer use and a preparation method thereof are provided. The FDY is made of matting agents dispersed polyester via the steps of spinning melt metering, extruding via the compositional spinneret, cooling, oiling, drawing, heat setting and winding. The woven fabrics manufactured with the FDY possess a wicking height and an evaporation rate of larger than or equal to 135 mm and 0.22 g/h, respectively. The compositional spinneret is simultaneously provided with cruciform orifices and circular orifices, and the length ratio of cruciform orifice to circular orifice is equal to the product of their equivalent diameter ratio and a coefficient K, here equivalent diameter is the ratio of orifice cross-section area to its circumference and K ranges from 0.97 to 1.03, and the oiling involves the oiling agent containing 67.30-85.58 wt % of crown ether.

Provided are MOF-fabric composites having a crystalline MOF adhered directly to fibers of the fabric and methods of making MOF-fabric composites. A solution is adsorbed onto a fabric. The solution can include a metal salt, a linker, and a solvent. The solution is adsorbed onto the fabric and the fabric suspended over a heated vapor. The vapor releases onto the fabric, causing the metal salt, the linker, and the solvent to diffuse out of the polymer fibers. The linker links metal from the metal salts to form crystals attached to the fabric, and the vapor aids crystallization.

An oxidation and grafting method for grafting a bioactive polymer, such as polyNaSS, onto an article, in particular a polymer or ceramic article. The method comprises a step of oxidation by ozonation and a step of grafting by radical polymerisation in a polymerisation station having a first reactor. The two steps of oxidation and grafting are carried out consecutively in different solutions in the reactor of the polymerisation station.

This invention provides a composition and aqueous dispersion comprising magnesium oxide, as a sole active agent or in combination with ammonium phosphate/ammonium polyphosphate for imparting anti-bacterial and/or anti-viral properties to textile products. The present invention further provides methods for preparing such compositions and aqueous dispersions and methods of using the same for textile finishing.

The present disclosure provides a method for processing an all-polyester fiber cotton-like fabric with sunlight resistance. The method includes: 1) weaving a PTT/PET bicomponent composite stretch yarn into a fabric; 2) dyeing processing the fabric; and 3) finalizing and finishing, wherein the finalizing and finishing comprises: a) preparing a finishing liquor obtained by mixing a crosslinking agent and an emulsion of benzophenone-containing polyorganosiloxane; b) padding the fabric; and c) drying and finalizing at a high temperature.

A coated fiber comprising a fiber comprising polyester, and a coating on the fiber, said coating comprising a cross-linked silicone prepared by cross-linking on the fiber one or more silicon-containing compounds selected from an organosilane and organosilicone resin, wherein at least one of said silicon-containing compounds has at least three cross-linking groups is provided, together with a method of preparing such a fiber, a concrete composition comprising such coated fibers, and a method of preparing such a concrete composition.

A liquid-crystal polyether fiber with high tensile strength has an ash content of 0.3 percent by weight or less, a degree of fusion (f) of 3 or less, and a tensile strength of 18 cN/dtex or more. The liquid-crystal polyether fiber has few residues of an anti-fusion agent and causes no fusion between filaments.

A composition to be used for providing permanent hydrophilic finishing of textile fibers and textile products made thereof consists of at least one anionic surfactant based on a neutralized phosphoric acid ester of a fatty alcohol having at least 12 C-atoms in a proportion of 25 to 80 weight percent, a non-ionic consistency enhancer in a proportion of 10 to 50 weight percent, a hydrophilically modified polyalkylsiloxane in a proportion of 3 to 35 weight percent and a hydrotropic dispersion additive in a proportion of 0 to 5 weight percent, each based on the total weight of the composition. The composition is preferably present as a granulate and has a melting point of at least 45° C.

An aqueous emulsion comprising an aqueous continuous phase and a discontinuous oil phase comprising particles having an interpenetrating network (IPN) comprising: i) an MQ resin, ii) a polyorganosiloxane and iii) an organic polymer.
