Various embodiments of the teachings herein include methods for coating a fiber material with manganese oxide. For example, a method may include: applying a manganese oxide precipitate to the fiber material; drying the manganese oxide precipitate; and oxidizing the manganese oxide precipitate using an oxygen plasma at a temperature below 200° C. forming a manganese(IV) oxide layer having at least 70% by weight with respect to the manganese oxide precipitate.

A technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a non-coated fabric for airbags and a coated fabric for airbags that are both less likely to have yarn slippage after being sewn, and that can be compactly stored; and airbags using these fabrics. The fabric for airbags according to the present invention is a non-coated fabric for airbags or a coated fabric for airbags that both have a crimp ratio of 12% or more in the warp direction, and a crimp ratio of 61 or less in the weft direction.

The frictional power transmission belt includes a frictional power transmission surface formed of a composite fibrous layer containing a fibrous member, an isocyanate compound, and a resin component, wherein the fibrous member contains a cellulose-based fiber. A proportion of each of the isocyanate compound and the resin component in the composite fibrous layer may be 2 to 15% by mass.

A nonwoven fabric has active antimicrobial and anti-viral agents coated onto it. Alternatively, an active antimicrobial/antiviral agent may be mixed into the barrier coating or fiber polymers themselves that make up the nonwoven material. A primary example is the treatment of an existing fabric having known permeability appropriate for an intended use. Intended uses for this nonwoven fabric include, but are not limited to, as a wearable garment, hair coverings, “booties,” temporary curtains, instrument wraps, surgical drapes, and blankets, each of which has active antimicrobial protection, thereby allowing the possibility of multiple uses of the fabric product.

A multispectral camouflage fabric having a camouflage pattern containing a least a first, second, and third color. Each of the first, second, and third colors contain at least one dye and at least one of the first, second, and third colors contains carbon black. The camouflage pattern has a short wave infrared (SWIR) reflectance pattern and contains first, second, and third reflectance zones. Each reflectance zone has an upper and lower reflectance zone boundary and the difference between the upper and lower first reflectance zone boundaries is approximately 10 percentage points. The difference between the first and second zone and the second and third zone is approximately 10 percentage points. At essentially all wavelengths within the SWIR portion of the spectrum, the first color falls within the first zone boundaries, the second color falls within the second zone boundaries, and the third color falls within the third zone boundaries.

The present application relates to fiber cloth having functional composite particles and a preparation method therefor. The preparation method comprises: placing a solid metal block consisting of functional metal particles into a crucible using an evaporation and condensation process, and heating and evaporating the same into a vacuum physical vapor deposition (PVD) process furnace for condensation; depositing PVD ceramic layers on the outer surfaces of the functional metal particles under the condensed state using a PVD process to form the functional composite particles; and screening the functional composite particles by means of a particle filter and accelerating the particles to bombard the fiber cloth, thereby implanting the functional composite particles into the fiber cloth to form the fiber cloth having the functional composite particles. The functional composite particles in the present application can reduce contact between the internal functional metal particles and external oxygen, slowly release ionic metal ions of the functional metal particles, and prolong the action time of the functional metal particles. According to the present application, by implanting the functional composite particles into the fiber cloth, the fiber cloth with a long lasting antibacterial effect can be obtained.

Composition and production methods of artificial hair (11) with natural organic material, comprising a core (12), surrounded by a mantle (9), whereby the core comprises a strong fiber with one or more filaments (13) and whereby the mantle comprises one or more layers of shellac and liquefied hydrolysed human hair, combined with crosslinkers that are attached to the core that can be composed of natural fibroin fibers or of fibers of a high performance synthetic polymer.

A method for forming a friction material. The method includes mixing a fibrous base material and filler particles to form a substrate. The method further includes saturating the substrate with a silane solution including a silane to form a uniformly impregnated silane matrix. The method also includes curing the uniformly impregnated silane matrix to form a cured uniformly impregnated silane matrix. The method also includes saturating the cured uniformly impregnated silane matrix with a phenolic resin solution to form a uniformly impregnated silane, phenolic resin matrix. The method also includes curing the uniformly impregnated silane, phenolic resin matrix to form the friction material.
