The provided articles and methods use a non-woven fibrous web containing 60-100 wt % of oxidized polyacrylonitrile fibers; and 0-40 wt % of reinforcing fibers having outer surfaces comprised of a polymer with a melting temperature of from 100° C. to 300° C. The non-woven fibrous web has an average bulk density of from 15 kg/m.sup.3 to 50 kg/m.sup.3, with the plurality of fibers substantially entangled along directions perpendicular to a major surface of the non-woven fibrous web. Optionally, the oxidized polyacrylonitrile fibers can have a crimped configuration. Advantageously, these articles can display a combination of low thermal conductivity, high tensile strength, and flame resistance.

A resin composition comprises, based on 100% by weight of the resin composition: 45-70 wt % of a main resin, 20-45 wt % of a chopped glass fiber, 1-3 wt % of a toughening resin, 0.2-0.5 wt % of an unmodified glycidyl methacrylate, and 0-10 wt % of an auxiliaries. The main resin is selected from at least one of PBT resin and PPS resin. The chopped glass fiber has a dielectric constant of 4.0 to 4.4 at 1 MHz.

A shearing part for a plasticising screw has at least one inlet channel and at least one outlet channel, which run helically around or parallel to the longitudinal axis (X) of the shearing part. The inlet channel is open upstream and closed downstream. The outlet channel is open downstream and closed upstream. The inlet outlet channels are arranged lying directly adjacent to one another and contiguous to one another, and are connected directly with one another fluidically, so that inflowing melt can flow over directly from the inlet channel into the outlet channel, wherein a flow direction transversely to longitudinal axis (X) of the shearing part is produced. The inlet channel has a depth (T) at which shearing action on the melt is substantially avoided. The outlet channel is configured as shearing surface, so that shearing action is present onto melt flowing through the outlet channel.

A bulk moulding compound comprising one or more cyanate ester, a catalyst, a filler and reinforcement fibres is provide, whereby the one or more cyanate ester is independently selected from a difunctional cyanate ester compound and/or a polyfunctional cyanate ester and mixtures of these cyanate esters. Furthermore, the catalyst is independently selected from the group consisting of 4,4′ methylene-bis(2,6-diethylaniline) (M-DEA), 4,4′-methylene-bis(3-chloro-2,6-diethyl¬aniline) (M-CDEA), aluminum(III)acetylacetonate, and mixtures thereof.

The present invention is directed to an article comprising a fiber reinforced composition (C), said composition comprising a propylene polymer (PP), an elastomeric ethylene copolymer (E) and fibers (F).

The present disclosure relates generally to an extruder for producing an extrudate. The present disclosure relates more particularly to an extruder including an extruder body having at least one material inlet and an exit opening. A rotatable outlet is coupled to the exit opening of the extruder body and is configured to rotate as the extrudate is expelled from the extruder body.

The present invention concerns a method of producing a moulded mineral wool insulation product, said method comprising the steps of providing a mixture by mixing mineral fibres with a binder composition, and providing said mixture in a mould form, and then curing the binder, wherein the binder composition comprises at least one hydrocolloid, and then removing the moulded product from the mould form.

A hot press cushioning material includes: a fiber material comprised of a multiplicity of randomly oriented fibers (1); rubber (2) present in voids between the fibers (1) of the fiber material; and independent pores (3) dispersedly present in the rubber (2).

Provided is a method for producing a gear including an intermediate product forming process of solidifying a fluid material to form a gear intermediate product, and a tooth forming process of cutting the gear intermediate product to form teeth.

A process for producing a thermoformable polymer/fiber composite using a fibrous substrate, an organic di- or polyisocyanate compound and a dispersion polymer.
