Cellulosic fiber-containing fabrics are made wrinkle resistant by a durable press wrinkle-free process which comprises treating a cellulosic fiber-containing fabric with formaldehyde, a catalyst capable of catalyzing the crosslinking reaction between the formaldehyde and cellulose and a silicone elastomer, heat-curing the treated cellulose fiber-containing fabric, preferably having a moisture content of more than 20% by weight, under conditions at which formaldehyde reacts with cellulose in the ...

Coating compositions comprising an epoxy resin and a curative which is methylenedisalicylic acid and/or a methylendisalicylic acid ring-substituted homologue are found to cure at and produce a wrinkle finish at relatively low temperatures when a borontrifluoride:amine complex is used as the cure catalyst.

The invention relates to a system and method of eliminating wrinkling, tearing and web-breaks of a web in an offset printing press as the web contacts the chill rollers on start-up. The system operates to eliminate the wrinkling that generates the tearing. During startup, a spreader roller impinges the web, stretching out wrinkles. During acceleration of the press, when thermal contraction of the paper also achieves the desired stretching, the spreader roller is retracted to prevent smearing of ...

A goalkeeper's glove includes: a wrinkle-releasing slot formed in a palm side of the glove for relieving any wrinkles formed when bending or curving the glove when grasping a football for well manipulating the catching of the football; an adjustable fastening strap formed on a wrist portion of the glove consisting of a first Velcro hook and loop tape and a second Velcro tape which are adjustably fastened on the wrist portion respectively corresponding to a fat or a slim goalkeeper's hand (wrist)...

Composition spray applied on fabrics to de-wrinkle and refresh while protecting colors which leaves no discernable residue. Quality water, one or more alcohol(s) and one or more surfactant(s) penetrate the fabric weave. One or more acids lower pH to stabilize sensitive dyes, thus ensuring color-safeness. Alcohols hasten drying and fragrances mask alcohol odor and help consumers identify the product. Mechanical action(s) by the user enhances wrinkle removal or imparts shape. Optional malodor-elim...

A method of minimizing distortion and preventing wrinkles in optical plastic-glass composites utilizing a lens-laminating mechanism wherein stretched synthetic fabric is disposed between a plunger and the plastic-glass composite wherein the stretched synthetic fabric transfers some of the plunger forces toward the perimeter of the plastic-glass composite during contact of the plunger with the composite.

The process includes a first molding step with an upper surface of the glass wool pelt having been sprayed with water and with a lower surface of the glass wool pelt insulated from the lower mold portion by a previously molded glass wool insulating sheet, and a second molding step with the insulating sheet removed.

Apparatus is provided for sensing a property of a sheet (18). A sensor element (32) is adapted to be placed alongside the sheet path, and a base member (34) is adapted to be positioned on one side of the sheet and in sliding contact with one surface thereof. The sensor element is enabled to produce a sheet property sensing interaction with the sheet in a limited region of the sheet path, the interaction region being movable to any one of a plurality of sensing locations spaced across the width o...

A cellulosic fabric is treated with a crosslinking agent selected from the group consisting of: an adduct from an amide and glyoxal, an acetal derived from a dialdehyde and an aldehyde other than formaldehyde and an acidic catalyst. The catalyst and crosslinking agent is of sufficient amount and concentration to impregnate the fabric and produce wrinkle-resistance and smooth-drying finishes when dried from about 3-10 minutes at from about 60.degree.-100.degree. C. and then cured from about 1-5 m...

This invention relates to fabric care compositions comprising curable amine functional silicones for wrinkle reduction.
