Celanese Corporation is a Fortune 500 global technology and specialty materials company with its headquarters in Dallas, Texas, United States.
This proprietary process owned by KBC is a method in which the oscillations of a musical chord are “caught” on a quartz plate and the vibration patterns photographed. The patterns thus obtained are used in making unique print fabrics of unusual variety and originality.

This method involves applying the coating to a temporary substrate and then adding an adhesive coating (tie coat) to allow transfer by roller of the coating to the desired substrate.
Industry:Textiles
The yarn numbering system based on length and weight originally used for cotton yarns and now employed for most staple yarns spun on the cotton, or short-staple, system. It is based on a unit length of 840 yards, and the count of the yarn is equal to the number of 840¬yard skeins required to weigh 1 pound. Under this system, the higher the number, the finer the yarn.
Industry:Textiles
The treatment of printed fabrics with a chemical solution to improve the appearance of the whites. In many cases the treatment also brightens the printed areas.
Industry:Textiles
The width dimension, within the plane of the fabric, that is perpendicular to the direction in which the fabric is being produced by the machine.
Industry:Textiles
The temperature of the water surrounding the candle filter or within the heating jacket during fiber extrusion.
Industry:Textiles
The transfer of yarn from skeins or bobbins or other types of packages to cones.
Industry:Textiles
The stabilization of cellulosic or manufactured fibersthrough chemical reaction with certain compounds in such a way that thecellulose or manufactured polymer chains are bridged across or “cross¬linked.” Cross-linking improves such mechanical factors as wrinkleresistance. Random cross-linking in manufactured polymers is undesirable and leads tobrittleness and loss of tensile strength.
Industry:Textiles
The simplest method of coating, this procedure involves spreading the coating with a knife. The moving fabric substrate is usually supported by a roller or a sleeve. The gap between the knife and the fabric determines coating thickness.
Industry:Textiles
The shape of an individual filament when cut at right angles to its axis.Normal shapes for manufactured fibers vary, e.g., round (nylon, polyester, polypropylene, andsome acrylics), serrated or crenular (viscose rayon, acetate, and triacetate),bean-shaped (some acrylics and modacrylics). The shaped of manufacturedfibers can be modified by changing the shape of the holes in the spinneret.Cross-sectional variants are produced intentionally in wide variety of shapesfor different physical effects such as change in luster or hand, improvedresistance to soiling, etc. Examples are trilobal (T and Y) and other multilobalshapes (cruciform, K, X, pentalobal, star, etc.), I-beam, ribbon, square,triangular, elliptical, hollow, and many others.
