A dimensionally stable universal floor covering includes a tufted textile having stitches and a reinforcement layer operatively connected to the stitches to provide dimensional stability for the entire floor covering. The reinforcement layer is made of fibers that are initially contained within a composition of adhesive and fibers. Mixing of the adhesive/fibers composition and/or injection of compressed air, assists in preparing the adhesive and fiber composition to be in the preferred condition and position prior to the forming of the reinforcement layer. Multiple sources of pressure, including vacuum, are applied in a controlled manner for moving the adhesive and fiber composition to form a reinforcement layer of fibers that is operatively connected to the stitches and/or to form a layer of fibers and adhesive that is contained within the stitches. The universal floor covering is selectively cut and transported in a roll for installation, and it can be conveniently recycled if necessary.

Methods of manufacturing a layered glass element and various components of a layered class element, such as a pre-form assembly and a woven panel, are disclosed herein. These methods include the step of supplying a woven panel having a plurality of elongated strands woven into an open weave to define a first porous surface opposite of a second porous surface. A layer of interlayer material is applied to the first and second porous surfaces to encapsulate at least a portion of the woven panel within the interlayer material. These elements may be placed between a first and second layer of glass materials. A degree of pressure and heat is then applied for a first period of cure time to bond the interlayer material and the woven panel into either a pre-form assembly or a layered glass element.

A passivating flexible insulation blanket positionable about a pipe includes an insulation core, an enclosing fabric, and a non-consumable passivator. The insulation core is substantially hydrophobic and includes a microporous material. The enclosing fabric fully encapsulates the insulation core to form a capsule or pouch about the insulation core. The non-consumable passivator is non-consumable such that there is no appreciable change to a mass of the non-consumable passivator after an extended time of activation. The non-consumable passivator is deposited into the insulation core and has a composition soluble in water. The non-consumable passivator includes a leachable component that leaches from the insulation core and is capable of neutralizing acidic components. The leachable component is water soluble and is capable of reacting with a surface of the pipe to form a protective coating on the pipe to aid in inhibiting corrosion formation on the surface of the pipe.

This invention relates to a functional textile manufacturing system. This system uses weaving equipment, dyeing and finishing equipment, shaping equipment, evaporation equipment, lamination equipment, roll adhesion equipment and printing equipment for production. Weaving equipment, dyeing and finishing equipment and shaping equipment are used for weaving, dyeing, washing and shaping to process low-cost polyester fibers into shaped fabric. Then, the evaporation equipment is used to evaporate a metal onto a plane release film to form a metal evaporation release film, and the lamination equipment, roll adhesion equipment and printing equipment are used to laminate the shaped fabric and the metal evaporation release film and to adhere a printed layer on the functional thin film. Such a manufacturing system can produce laundry resistant unconventional material antimicrobial protective fabric that features special temperature control, antimicrobial, waterproof, breathable, scratch resistant properties, as well as comfortable feeling.

Systems and methods of forming fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites with electrostatic dissipative properties are described herein. The FRP composite is bonded to a surface and integrates a grounding system to dissipate electro-static energy, thus eliminating the potential risk of explosion. The system can be used for structures that require reinforcement and that are susceptible to electro-static explosions.
