Definitions
- the present invention relates to a new glass textile fabric which is aesthetically pleasing, exhibits high strength, yet is extremely lightweight.
- the fabric is a woven glass textile fabric which finds particular applicability as a fabric for walls.
- a method for producing a patterned glass fabric, especially suitable for wallpaper or similar materials having a fabric woven with glass fiber yams.
- the glass fiber yam has a titer between 130 tex and 150 tex, and preferably between 139 and 142 tex, which is used for the warp.
- the yarn is generally processed on a pattern controlled Jacquard loom.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a wall fabric exhibiting good strength, but which is also lightweight and aesthetically pleasing in nature.
- the present invention provides a glass textile fabric which is aesthetically pleasing, exhibits high strength, yet is lightweight, thereby providing a soft touch and feel.
- the textile is a woven glass fabric and finds distinct applicability as a wall fabric.
- the fabric is woven with a 20 to 80 tex yam in the machine direction or warp, and a sliver is used as the weft or cross direction.
- a sliver is used as the weft or cross direction.
- Sliver which can be characterized as a staple fiber strand or a discontinuous fiber yarn, is used in the weft of the fabric of the present invention.
- the manufacture of sliver is well known, and is described, for example, in Fiber Glass, by J. Gilbert Mohr and William P. Rowe, 1978, Van Nostrand Reinhold Company, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
- the production of sliver using the so-called "drum attenuation" method is also described and referenced in U.S. Patent No. 4,863,502, which is also hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
- the sliver can be, and is preferably manufactured from C-glass or E-glass pellets. Such chemical glass or electronic glass compositions are well known.
- FIG. 1 illustrates one such unit.
- a hopper located on top of the sliver unit, contains the glass pellets.
- a pellet feeder draws the required pellet volume, time and weight controlled, and distributes it evenly into a glass fiber bushing.
- the bushing is comprised of an electrically heated trough made of precious metal. It is embedded in a set of heat resistant bricks and assembled on a frame. On the bottom of the trough, the bushing has numerous nozzle-like outlets called "tips" from which glass fibers are drawn.
- the bushing is temperature response power controlled.
- the solid glass pellets are transformed into liquid glass.
- This glass penetrating through the outlets forms glass beads which in turn generate liquid glass fiber filaments.
- the fibers are vaporized with fiber forming promoter fluid and are wound onto a spinning drum.
- the glass drops are accelerated, broken from the filaments and disposed to the basement for recycling.
- the spinning drum attenuates the fibers to the desired diameter.
- the fibers adhere to the drum surface for less than one drum rotation and are then removed with a scraper blade. Good adhesion action firmly keeps the fibers on the drum surface. They are then released at the scraper blade edge.
- the fibers are whirl-vortexed in a funnel, twisted (closed), removed and continuously wound on bobbins. Should fibers break, the fiber drawing process automatically restarts. Glass drops and heavy fibers are separated from the standard glass fibers and collected for recycling.
- the dwelling time in the funnel is significantly abbreviated, for it has been discovered that especially evenness and uniform appearance are improved.
- FIG. 2 of the Drawing provides more detail as to this preferred method of preparing sliver, using the so-called drum attenuation method.
- filaments 4 are drawn from the ends of glass rods or from nozzles of a trough 2 containing fluid glass with the help of a rotating drawing surface 3.
- the filaments 4 are drawn parallel, next to each other, and attenuated to thin filaments, which are then lifted from the circumference of the rotating drawing surface before the completion of one wrap around, dispersed into fibers and fed into an enclosed space 7.
- This space is oriented rotation symmetrical and axis parallel to the drawing surface.
- a fiber whirl 9 is formed which is drawn off on one side as a fiber.
- a rotating drawing surface 3 in the form of a drum, large numbers of parallel, side by side glass filaments 4 are continuously drawn from the spinning nozzles 1 of a melting trough 2, or from the heat softened ends of glass rods. These contact the drawing surface external to the free fall line at 5, are drawn off and attenuated to a smaller diameter than at their formation with the help of this drawing surface.
- a suitable lifting device 6 for instance a stripper of thin sheet metal, or by counter directed blast streams, and fed into an enclosed space 7 such as a so-called spinning funnel, which is oriented parallel to the rotating drawing surface 3.
- a co-rotating air cushion is formed around the drawing surface 3 by the high rotation velocity. It assists during the drawing of the filaments 4 and is also lifted by the removal device 6 and fed into the enclosure 7 along with the suspended fibers 8. As a result, an air fiber-vortex 9 is created which forms the fibers in the circulating whirl to a fiber web or a roving. It is then continuously drawn off through a tubular nozzle 10 by means of a drawing and spooling device 11. The strength of the web is determined by the number of fibers and/or the removal rate.
- the side of the enclosure 7 opposite the nozzle 10 is open and allows the rotational wind or the air cushion in the funnel to escape.
- the rotating drawing surface 3 is surrounded over a large portion of its circumference at a distance by a mantle 12 which serves as a protective device. In addition, it assures that no contaminants are pulled to the drawing surface by the resultant rotational wind and that the air cushion surrounding the drum is safely guided to the removal location 13.
- a preceding removal device 14 is activated which removes the accumulating filaments from the drawing surface 3 until the defects at 13 have been corrected.
- a glass droplet 15 is formed at the spinning location 1. It pulls a new filament 4 behind itself during the free fall. The filament is conducted to the drawing surface 3 by an oblique guide surface 16 underneath the drum. The filament is caught by the drawing surface and is carried along by it. At the same time it is separated from the droplet 15.
- the filaments 4 are in actuality not only drawn off and attenuated by the drawing surface 3 but are also drawn off and attenuated by the air cushion created by this surface, whereas both can be effective for the individual filament during its path.
- a filament can therefore arrive at the drawing surface, then become immersed in the air cushion, be deposited again at the drawing surface, etc. or the other way around.
- the filaments are frequently broken into longer and shorter pieces by this, so that at 3, longer and shorter filament pieces or fibers can be present.
- the resulting sliver product can then be used in preparing the glass textile fabric of the present invention.
- the glass sliver has a titer in the range of from about 180 to about 220 tex, more preferably in the range of from about 190 to 210 tex, and most preferably about 200 tex.
- the glass textile fabric of the present invention is comprised of glass sliver with a titer of about 200 tex as the weft, a glass yarn in the machine direction with a titer in the range of from about 30 to 40 tex, and most preferably about 34 tex.
- the glass yarn used in the machine direction, or warp of the textile fabric of the present Invention is a 20 to 80 tex, air texturized yarn, more preferably a yarn with a titer between about 30 and 50 tex, particularly for those fabrics woven on a Jacquard style loom, and from about 60 to 80 tex in other fabrics.
- the yarn can be air texturized by using any conventional process for glass fibers. Suitable machines are available, such as the air texturizing machines from Dietze and Schell Corporation, Greenville, South Carolina. Air texturizing machines DS60 and DS60D are examples of suitable machines useful in texturizing glass yarns using various jet streams of air to accomplish the texturizing.
- the machine can be supplied with glass yarn in various feedstock forms such as from flexible bobbins, spin cables and direct rovings.
- This glass yarn used as the warp is a very fine yarn which has been air-texturized.
- the wall fabric is easier to hang in outer and inner corners, on a pillar and in tough angles. The fabric also allows one to smooth out wrinkles and bubbles easily.
- the glass fabric textile of the present invention is also easier to paint, as it is easier to spread the paint out over the surface, and there is less roll resistance.
- the fabric consumes less paint and glue, and thereby is more economical. Because of the fabric's strength characteristics, the flexible fabric can stand extra handling, and allows for several adjustments during hanging of the wallpaper without any serious consequences. It has also been observed that the fabric provides almost invisible joints, and thus is more aesthetically pleasing in this respect, as well as in its overall look, feel and touch. The fabric also looses less fibers, which provides less fibers in the air during hanging, making handling of the textile fabric more environmentally friendly for the person handling the fabric as well as the environment in general. The lightweight characteristic of the fabric also, as well as the strength characteristics, allows for less raw material consumption. Overall, the strength, flexibility and lightweight nature of the fabric, as well as its voluminous look, feel and touch, provide for a very desirable product.
- the sliver and air-texturized yam are combined into the final textile product using any conventional loom, e.g., a Dobby loom, Jacquard loom, a weaving machine such as a Dornier weaving machine. Woven-in patterns are possible, if desired.
- the textile product Once the textile product has been woven, it can be treated in conventional fashion to provide the final characteristics of the product. Chemical treatments of glass fabrics are known to finalize/adjust such characteristics as strength, volume, stability and opacity of the final textile product.
- FIG. 3 depicts a process for applying a normal chemical treatment to a glass fabric of the present invention
- the glass fabric is a woven product from fiberglass yarn.
- the weave is typically a simple pattern, of up to eight shafts.
- the weave is produced, for example, on Dornier weaving machines, Reapiers or Air-Jets, in typically two or three meter widths for collecting on roll beams of typically 1,500-6,000 meters of untreated woven fiberglass fabric.
- Preferred yarns in accordance with the present invention include, for the warp direction, continuous C-glass or E-glass of 20 to 80 tex, more preferably from about 30 to 50 tex or 60 to 80 tex, which has been air-texturized.
- the sliver as described above is used.
- the glass fabric 21, preferred in roll form is fed to an impregnation bath, typically through rollers 23 and conventional conveyance means, to contact a bath 22 of, for example, a soft touch chemical mixture, or alternatively, for example, a pick up roll may convey the same mixture to at least one of the glass fabric surfaces.
- a preferred coating mixture consists of those components set out in Table 1 below.
- double side rotary screens may be used to apply the chemicals to the glass fabric 21.
- the chemical mixture is supplied to the interior of the two rotating screens and applied to the glass fabric by contact with the rotating screens.
- starch binders can be used.
- a starch binder derived from potatoes or com is preferred.
- the soft latex binders are preferably based on vinyl acetate. However, other types of latex binders can also be used.
- Inorganic cross-linkers are materials which may improve the effect of that mixture by stabilizing the chemical mixture upon application. Ammonium zirconium carbonate is preferred, but also other chemistries can be used.
- the mixture is preferably water based, and has a dry substance percentage of between 5 and 20 weight percent, preferably between 10 and 20 weight percent in the chemical bath.
- a dry substance percentage of between 5 and 20 weight percent, preferably between 10 and 20 weight percent in the chemical bath.
- colored pigments can also be added or used to create colored fabrics as well.
- the fabric may be conveyed to a drying means 24, which in the preferred embodiment of FIG. 3 is depicted as steam heated cylinders 25. After drying, the fabric is collected onto roll 26 and is usually cut into desired width. This first impregnation step adds additional volume, stability and opacity to the fabric.
- dispersion 44 can also be added to improve tear strength of the fabric 42.
- 10-60g of the dispersion per square meter is sufficient to obtain an optimum adhesion strength combined with moderate tear forces.
- the wanted tear force can be adjusted by the amount of the applied dispersion. It also depends on the type and structure of the used fabrics. The optimum adhesion strength is necessary to obtain the same wear resistance and the same fire resistance as standard glass fiber wall covering.
- the fabric may be conveyed to a drying means 46, which in the preferred embodiment of FIG. 4, is depicted as air dryers. Alternatively, heated cylinders can be used without any drawbacks.
- the fabric is then collected on roll 48.
