what is a web
soft, flexible, porous material that lacks strength and durability
why was chemical bonding so popular when it started?
because we had used chemicals on other things before
what was the problem with resigns and glues?
makes it very stiff
what is the best way to use resign?
only use a little at the crossover points to leave pore spaces open
what does chemical bonding struggling with?
balancing stiffness but still being strong
In chemical bonding the fabric can only be as strong as what
the binder
what can binders do over time?
discolor fabrics as they get older
cross linkables need what
a linking agent
process of using binders?
we apply binder then remove water or solvent with heating
what is in an aqueous solution?
monomers, catalyst, and an initiative to get the process started which will come together to make a polymer
what are most chemical binders made from?
water-bone latex so its easier to remove the liquid
what percent is the binder applied on?
5-60%
if we are only using chemical bonding what do we need?
higher levels of chemicals
how does saturation bonding work?
submerge fabric in solution, nip rollers will squeeze out excess,
do we get more absorption with padding or saturation?
padding
what is print bonding used for?
put a pattern
what does foam bonding work well with
thick fabrics
what is power bonding
disperse on fabric and then goes through. oven to bond together
what is a drum dryer
heat fabric over drum and pull through with a vacuum
what is a floation dryer
on conveyor belt and blows hot air
what is the downfall to the infrared oven
not the best choice because it gets so hot that if we have to stop equpiment we will lose everything under it
what is the infrared oven best used for
to preheat fabrics
advantages of chemical bonding with medical textiles (4)
wet and dry strength, soft, not irritating, absorpent
advanatges of chemcial bondinf wirh interlingin (3)
can adjust TG, good hand strength
