Definitions

  • the strings for sports equipment e.g., tennis raquets
  • musical instruments are usually coated with a thin layer at their outmost surface to improve their durability, spin, feeling, etc.
  • Nanocomposites such as clay and carbon nanotube reinforced nylon 6 nanocomposites, having better physical properties than neat nylon 6, are of a potential to be highly durable string coating materials with other functionalities.
  • the reinforcing polymeric composites using nano-sized clay particles with high aspect ratio have been investigated since the 1980's (see U.S. Patent No.
  • Strings are usually polymer materials with a multi-layer structure - core filament, wrapping filaments on the core filament, and coating.
  • coating materials are required to match the base materials and have good melt-flow properties (acceptable viscosity) at certain temperature to allow them to be penetrated into the gaps between the wrapping filaments.
  • Viscosity of a nanocomposite is usually higher than neat nylon 6 at the same temperature. Thus, the nanocomposite may not easily penetrate into the gaps between the wrapping filaments.
  • Figure 1 shows an SEM image of a cross-section view of a nylon 6/clay nanocomposite coated on a wrapping filament. It can be seen that the nanocomposite material did not successfully fill out the gaps.
  • Figure 1 shows an SEM image of a cross-section view of a nylon 6/clay nanocomposite coated on a wrapping filament
  • Figure 2 shows an SEM image of chipped materials from filaments and coatings after high impact tests on a string
  • Figure 3 A illustrates a cross-section of a core filament with wrapping filaments surrounding it
  • Figure 3B illustrates a buffer layer applied onto the wrapping filament
  • Figure 3 C illustrates a coating applied onto the buffer layer
  • FIG. 4 illustrates another embodiment of the present invention.
  • polymer nanocomposites have higher physical/mechanical properties than neat polymer materials, they normally have higher viscosity or melt- flow during an extrusion or coating process.
  • a thin buffer layer is used to coat on the multi-filament wrapped string to fill the gaps.
  • the polymers of the buffer-layer coating have a high melt-flow (low viscosity) during coating process to fill all the gaps between the filaments, and the filaments are fixed by the coatings onto base core materials.
  • Example 1 A coating system with a nylon 6 buffer layer
  • Figure 3A illustrates a cross-section of a string for coating comprised of one monofilament core 301 wrapped with smaller-diameter multi-filaments 302.
  • Neat nylon 6 pellets as may be obtained from UBE Industries Inc. (product name: UBE SF 1018 A) are melted.
  • the buffer layer coating 303 is applied by an extrusion process at temperatures ranging from 22O 0 C to 27O 0 C.
  • the thickness of the buffer layer 303 may be from 10 to 100 micrometers.
  • the gaps between the multi- filaments 302 are fully filled by the neat nylon 6 coating.
  • a wear-resistant coating 304 is then coated (Figure 3C) by an extrusion process at temperatures ranging from 24O 0 C to 28O 0 C.
  • a nylon 6/clay or nylon 6/carbon nanotube nanocomposite may be employed as the wear-resistant coating material 304.
  • the nylon 6 nanocomposite produced by in-situ polymerization may contain 4% nano-clay filler.
  • Other nylon 6 nanocomposites produced by melt-compounded process may also be used for the wear-
  • the wear-resistant coating may be from 1 to 100 micrometers.
  • Example 2 A coating system with a nylon 11 buffer layer
  • the string for coating is one monofilament core 301 wrapped with smaller-diameter multi-filaments 302.
  • Neat nylon 11 may be obtained from ARKEMA Inc. Nylon 11 has a very good melt flow at temperatures over 22O 0 C. Good impact strength and shear strength also make nylon 11 a good buffer layer material.
  • the buffer layer coating 303 is applied by an extrusion process at temperatures ranging from 19O 0 C to 27O 0 C.
  • the thickness of the buffer layer 303 may be from 10 to 100 micrometers.
  • the gaps between the multi-filaments 302 are fully filled by the neat nylon 11 coating.
  • a wear-resistant coating 304 is then coated by an extrusion process at temperatures ranging from 24O 0 C to 28O 0 C.
  • Nylon 6/clay or a nylon 6/carbon nanotube nanocomposite may be employed as the wear-resistant coating material 304.
  • the nylon 6 nanocomposite produced by in-situ polymerization may contain 4% nano-clay filler.
  • Other nylon 6 nanocomposites produced by melt-compounded process may also be used for the wear-resistant coating 304.
  • the nylon 6 nanocomposites may also be modified by rubber modifiers to improve the ductility and toughness.
  • the thickness of the wear-resistant coating 304 may be from 1 to 100 micrometers.
  • Nylon 6 nanocomposites may be melted at higher than 19O 0 C and extruded to deposit a coating on the strings. Nylon 6 nanocomposites may be dissolved in a solvent such as formic acid and sprayed, dipped, spin coated, brushed, painted, or immersed to deposit a coating on the string at room temperature or elevated temperatures. The solvent may be then removed by a follow-up process such as an evaporation method.
  • Figure 4 illustrates another embodiment of the present invention.
  • the coated string structure of Figure 3 C is then coated again with smaller-diameter multi-filaments 401.
  • a buffer layer coating 402 similar to layer 303, is applied by an extrusion process at temperatures ranging from 19O 0 C to 27O 0 C.
  • the thickness of the buffer layer 402 may be from 10 to 100 micrometers.
  • the gaps between the multi-filaments 401 are fully filled by the neat nylon 11 coating.
  • a wear-resistant coating 403 is then coated by an extrusion process at temperatures ranging from 24O 0 C to 28O 0 C.
  • Nylon 6/clay or a nylon 6/carbon nanotube nanocomposite may be employed as the wear-resistant coating material 403.
  • the nylon 6 nanocomposite produced by in-situ polymerization may contain 4% nano-clay filler.
  • Other nylon 6 nanocomposites produced by melt-compounded process may also be used for the wear-resistant coating 403.
  • the nylon 6 nanocomposites may also be modified by rubber modifiers to improve the ductility and toughness.
  • the thickness of the wear-resistant coating 403 may be from 1 to 100 micrometers.
