Articles, such as garments, including films comprising dried aqueous polyurethane dispersions are disclosed, whereby the garment has an altered stress which is exhibited during wear of the garment and/or has one or more sections of waterproof or water-resilient fabric. The film may be bonded to the fabric of the article to provide a fabric or film laminate.

Protective garments are disclosed having a fabric material treated with a durable water resistant treatment. In accordance with the present disclosure, the durable water resistant treatment is substantially free of fluorocarbon chemicals and yet provides not only excellent water resistance, but also has excellent durability properties.

The invention relates to the field involving the softening or lubricating of natural, synthetic or mixed textile fibres, as well as keratin fibres. The invention provides a softening composition, the rheology of which is controlled by means of a particular thickening agent. The invention also relates to the thickening agent, which is made from multiple isocyanate compounds.

A polyurethane based filament winding resin reaction mixture, a resin bath and a filament winding apparatus are set forth. The reaction mixture comprises an isocyanate component including one or more isocyanates and an isocyanate-reactive component including from 5 wt % to 95 wt % of one of more polyols having a number acerage molecular weight from 50 g/mol to 8,000 g/mol, from 2 wt % to 30 wt % of one or more propane based triols, and from 1 wt % to 15 wt % of one or more trimester-phosphates, based on the total weight of the isocyanate-reactive component. A ratio of a total weight of the one or more propane based triols to a total weight of the one or more trimester-phosphates is between 1.1 and 5.0.

The invention provides an adhesive composition. The adhesive composition includes a halohydrin compound, a blocked isocyanate compound and latex, in which the adhesive composition does not include resorcinol, formaldehyde and epoxy compound. The invention also provides a method for treating organic fiber. The method includes impregnating an organic fiber or a fabric with the abovementioned adhesive composition; and drying the organic fiber or the fabric.

An aramid yarn which is adhesive to a polyurethane matrix resin is disclosed. The polyurethane resin is adhered and impregnated to the surface and inside of the aramid yarn, and the content of the polyurethane resin is 1.5 to 7.0% by weight based on the sum of the weight of the polyurethane resin adhered and impregnated to the surface and inside of the aramid yarn plus the weight of the aramid yarn before the polyurethane resin is adhered and impregnated. An aramid fabric is woven into a basket-weave structure and thus has low denseness, the wetting property with the polyurethane matrix resin which is impregnated into the aramid fabric is improved, and consequently, the adhesive properties between the aramid fabric and the polyurethane matrix resin are improved.

A fiber sizing agent includes: a vinyl ester resin (A) having an alkoxy polyoxyalkylene structure and a urethane bond; and an aqueous medium. The fiber sizing agent has excellent fiber sizing properties for various fibers such as glass fibers and carbon fibers. A molded article obtained from a molding material including the fiber sizing agent is excellent in various physical properties such as bending strength, compressive strength, and interlaminar shear strength, and thus can be used, for example, for an automobile member, an aircraft member, a windmill member, and an industrial member.

The present invention relates to a sizing agent for carbon fibers, a carbon fiber with improved interfacial adhesion, a polymerization reaction type carbon fiber-reinforced polymer composite material using the same, and a production method therefor and, more specifically, to a sizing agent for carbon fibers, comprising a phenoxy resin and a block isocyanate compound prepared through a reaction of -caprolactam with one of two isocyanate groups of a diisocyanate compound, and the production of a carbon fiber with improved interfacial adhesion using the same, a polymerization reaction type carbon fiber-reinforced polymer composite material using the carbon fiber with improved interfacial adhesion, and a production method therefor.

To provide a thermoplastic resin fiber to which a dispersant is attached, which can effectively disperse carbon fibers.

A thermoplastic resin fiber to which a dispersant containing a random copolymer (A) of glycidyl ether and an alkylene oxide is attached in an amount of 0.1 to 20% by mass based on a total mass of thermoplastic resin fibers to which a dispersant is not attached.
