20090068427 | MULTI-LAYER, ELASTIC ARTICLES - The invention is an article comprising at least two layers, a low crystallinity layer and a high crystallinity layer. One or both layers is capable of being elongated so that a pre-stretched article is capable of being formed. | 03-12-2009 |
20090111347 | SOFT AND EXTENSIBLE POLYPROPYLENE BASED SPUNBOND NONWOVENS - The present invention relates to nonwoven webs or fabrics. In particular, the present invention relates to nonwoven webs having superior abrasion resistance and excellent softness characteristics. The nonwoven materials comprise fibers made from of a polymer blend of isotactic polypropylene and reactor grade propylene based elastomers or plastomers together with from about 100 to about 2500 ppm (by weight of the fiber) of a slip agent. The isotactic polypropylene can be homopolymer polypropylene, and/or random copolymers of propylene and one or more alpha-olefins. The reactor grade propylene based elastomers or plastomers have a molecular weight distribution of less than about 3.5, and a heat of fusion less than about 90 joules/gm. In particular, the reactor grade propylene based elastomers or plastomers contains from about 3 to about 15 percent by weight of units derived from an ethylene and a melt flow rate of from about 2 to about 200 grams/10 minutes. Erucamide is the preferred slip additive. | 04-30-2009 |
20090247033 | FIBERS MADE FROM COPOLYMERS OF ETHYLENE/a-OLEFINS - A fiber is obtainable from or comprises a blend of a propylene based polymer and an ethylene/α-olefin interpolymer characterized by an elastic recovery, Re, in percent at 300 percent strain and 1 cycle and a density, d, in grams/cubic centimeter, wherein the elastic recovery and the density satisfy the following relationship: Re>1481−1629(d). Such interpolymer can also be characterized by other properties. The fibers made therefrom have a relatively high elastic recovery and a relatively low coefficient of friction. The fibers can be cross-linked, if desired. Woven, knitted or non-woven fabrics can be made from such fibers. | 10-01-2009 |
