Abstract
Abstract A method of producing an improved sized glass fiber strand suitable for plastisol coating is shown wherein glass fiber strand is treated with a starch based forming size comprising a starch, the salt of a polyamino-functional polyamide resin and a carboxylic acid, a wax and a fatty triglyceride. The novel sized strands produced are particularly adapted for further coating with a resinous material, preferably a plastisol resin, to provide glass fiber strands useful for the fabrication of insect screening and filtration fabrics.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 16
Claim 1
Independent Claim
188 words
A method of forming an improved, sized glass fiber strand suitable for coating with a resinous material comprising: drawing glass streams through orifices in a bushing to form individual glass fibers; moving the fibers away from the bushing at a high rate of speed and forming then into a strand; applying to the fibers while they are moving at this speed and before they are formed into strand a starch based aqueous sizing solution and non-aqueous components thereof consisting essentially of 28 percent to 75 percent by weight of a starch; 4 percent to 52 percent by weight of the salt of a polyamino functional polyamide resin, said polyaminofunctional polyamide resin salt being formed from the condensation reaction product of a polycarboxcylic acid and a polyamine, said polyamine having greater than 2 amine groups per molecule, and a carboxcylic acid having 1 to 5 carbon atoms; 5 to 25 percent by weight of a wax from the group consisting of animal waxes, vegetable waxes, mineral waxes and synthetic waxes; and 9 percent to 77 percent by weight of a fatty triglyceride; and collecting the glass strands so produced.
