A warp-inserted warp chain knitted chain structure for knitted net is disclosed, which is formed by two parts, i.e., a warp-knitted chain and an insertion warp plainly and straightly inserted into the warp-knitted chain. The warp-knitted chain is formed by serially connecting loop links formed through warp knitting of looping fibers. The denier of the warp-knitted chain is 3 times the denier A of the looping fibers. The ratio of the denier A of the looping fibers to the denier C of the insertion warp is less than or equal to 2.33. In a baling net using the same, under the same knitted chain denier, the insertion warp and the warp-knitted chain are used to jointly bear the warp load, such that the insertion warp does not bend, and the strength of the knitted chain is improved, thus improving the overall strength of the baling net.

The disclosure provides embodiments of environmentally acceptable fishing lines or fishing nets. Embodiments of the disclosed fishing line or net may comprise a degradable polymer having components derived from i) biomass sources, ii) protein, fatty acid or lipid sources, iii) microbial-based monomers and polymers, iv) agro-based monomers and polymers, v) sugar or starch based monomers and polymers, or combinations thereof, as well as fishing lines and net that further comprise an additive having components derived from i) polyol sources, ii) citrate sources, iii) fatty acid sources, iv) biomass oil sources, or combinations thereof. Some of the embodiments of the disclosed fishing lines or nets may have a suitable fiber core, while other embodiments of the disclosed fishing lines or nets are degradable over a predetermined period of time. The disclosed embodiments are preferred because of the low environmental impact of the disclosed fishing lines or nets when compared to, for example, well known synthetic polymer fishing lines or nets.

A substrate is mountable on a lacrosse stick head to form a pocket. The head has a throat attached to a shaft, a ball stop attached to the throat, a scoop distal to the throat, and sidewalls extending between the ball stop and the scoop. The substrate includes a top portion and a bottom portion. The top portion is positioned proximate to the scoop and the bottom portion is positioned between the top and the ball stop. The top and bottom portions include yarn knit to form the substrate. A method of making the substrate includes casting the yarn onto a needle, knitting the top and bottom portions, casting the yarn off the needle, tying off the yarn and attaching the substrate to the head.

A tether is a net that kinks and is automatically deformed upon tension release. The tether has a length of several kilometers to several tens of kilometers upon deployment and is capable of shrinking to have a length of approximately several tens of meters to several hundreds of meters by kinking and automatically being deformed when the tension is released because of cutting or the like.

A high-strength polyamide 610 multifilament has a sulfuric acid relative viscosity of 3.0 to 3.7 and a drying strength of more than 9.2 cN/dtex and within 11.0 cN/dtex, having a total fineness of 100 to 2,500 dtex and a single fiber fineness of 1.5 to 40 detex and a birefringence Δn of 50.0 x 10.sup.-3 or more.

Degradable extruded nettings include a plurality of interconnected strands, at least some of the strands being made from a polymeric blend, the polymeric blend including polylactic acid polymer composition, polybutyrate adipate terephthalate polymer composition, polylactic acid-polybutyrate compatibilizer, and a degradation additive, the degradation additive including a degrader in a carrier resin.

A triaxially braided strap includes a plurality of axial strands and a plurality of longitudinal strands including a first boundary strand and a second boundary strand. Each strand of the plurality of axial strands is routed, in a repeating pattern and in the following order: under the first boundary strand; around the first boundary strand; between respective portions of a pair of axial strands that are routed between the first boundary strand and the second boundary strand; under the second boundary strand; around the second boundary strand; and between respective portions of a pair of axial strands that are routed between the second boundary strand and the first boundary strand.

Provided is a thermal molding method for producing a thermally molded article having excellent abrasion resistance at its melt-fused part. Polyamide 6 and a copolyester are prepared separately. The copolyester contains terephthalic acid, ethylene glycol, and 1,4-butanediol as copolymerization units. The copolyester may further contain ε-caprolactone and/or diethylene glycol as a copolymerization unit. A multifilament yarn in which core-sheath type composite filaments each containing a core component and a sheath component at a ratio of 1 to 4:1 by mass are bundled is produced by a composite melt-spinning method using the polyamide 6 as the core component and the copolyester as the sheath component. Using the multifilament yarn, a product of filaments is produced by weaving, knitting, knitting and braiding, or braiding. The product of filaments is heated to melt the copolyester and fuse the core-sheath type composite filaments to each other while retaining the initial filament form of the polyamide 6, thus thermally molding the product of filaments.

The head has a throat attached to a shaft, a ball stop attached to the throat, a scoop distal to the throat, and sidewalls extending between the ball stop and the scoop. The substrate includes a top portion and a bottom portion. The top portion is positioned proximate to the scoop and the bottom portion is positioned between the top and the ball stop. The top and bottom portions include yarn knit to form the substrate. A method of making the substrate includes casting the yarn onto a needle, knitting the top and bottom portions, casting the yarn off the needle, tying off the yarn and attaching the substrate to the head.

The present invention forms meshes between intersections of synthetic fiber cords while the synthetic fiber cords having a form in which a plurality of synthetic fiber filaments are plied and twisted is crossed in a knotless type, wherein a diameter (d) of the synthetic fiber cord satisfies the Equation (I), a maximum distance (DI) between the intersections adjacent to each other satisfies the Equation (II), and a minimum distance (D2) between the intersections adjacent to each other satisfies the Equation (III).

Since the present invention is made lightweight with a lower areal density than a conventional protective net for sports and increases rate of hole size with a small diameter of the synthetic fiber cord constituting the protective net, the present invention improves resistance against wind during manufacture of a protective net structure, and has excellent mechanical properties and thus provides excellent resistance against impact applied when a ball flies and bumps. Consequently, the present invention minimizes damage and extends a replacement cycle.

Further, the present invention improves visibility with the high rate of hole size, and also improves stability by effectively preventing penetration of the ball between the meshes.

Further, the present invention is easily mounted in the protective net structure and provides excellent flame retardancy and weather resistance.
