US Patent:

20060128243, Jun 15, 2006
Filed:

Dec 15, 2004
Appl. No.:

11/012844
Inventors:

Xiangming Kong - Wilmington DE, US
Sharon Birk - Wilmington DE, US
Kevin Frankel - Hockessin DE, US
International Classification:

D03D 15/08
D03D 15/00
D03D 17/00
US Classification:

442182000, 442209000, 442211000, 442215000
Abstract:

A stretchable fabric comprising NYCO fabric with about 2 to about 4 wt. % elastic, such as an elastane as LYCRA, is disclosed. The stretchable fabric of the invention exhibits about 20 to about 50% fabric stretch, and is suitable for application in combat uniforms where mobility and comfort are desirable. The stretchable fabric maintains or exceeds substantially all military uniform standard requirements and exhibits characteristics such as breaking strength, tear resistance, air permeability and abrasion resistance similar to that of NYCO fabric. Also disclosed is a garment manufactured from the stretchable fabric, as well as methods for manufacturing, dying and finishing the stretchable fabric.

US Patent:

20090019624, Jan 22, 2009
Filed:

Jul 15, 2008
Appl. No.:

12/173648
Inventors:

Sharon W. Birk - Wilmington DE, US
Yashavant Vinayak Vinod - Hockessin DE, US
Douglas A. Bloom - Seaford DE, US
Fred C. Wynegar - Wilmington DE, US
Assignee:

INVISTA NORTH AMERICA S.A. R.L. - Wilmington DE
International Classification:

A62B 17/00
B32B 9/00
D04B 1/24
D04B 7/16
D05B 23/00
US Classification:

2455, 442304, 442312, 442 80, 442 93, 442118, 442125, 442136, 442123, 2 81, 66171, 66202, 11247509
Abstract:

Knit fabrics and military apparel such as T-shirts made therefrom are disclosed. The fabrics are constructed from blended yarns made from an intimate combination of nylon and cotton staple fibers. Such fabrics comprise a weight ratio of cotton to nylon which ranges from about 55:45 to about 85:15, and these fabrics also have a weight ranging from about 3 to about 8 oz/yd. Knit fabrics of this type possess a desirable combination of good thermal protective properties, provided the specified high level of staple fiber blend uniformity is achieved, along with very useful abrasion resistance, bursting strength and drying time characteristics.
