Abstract

Abstract A process for producing a liner material characterized by dipping a core in the form of a monofilament or multifilament into a vinyl chloride resin sol composition having a thermochromic particulate material incorporated therein, the thermochromic particulate material being prepared by enclosing with the high polymer compound an electron-donating chromogenic substance, an electron-accepting substance for the chromogenic substance and a solvent having a boiling point of at least 150° C. and selected from the group consisting of alcohols, amides, esters and azomethines and further covering the resulting product with a different high polymer compound; withdrawing the core from the sol composition; and heating the core to gel the sol composition and cover the core with the gelled composition.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 173 words
A process for producing a linear material characterized by applying onto a core in the form of a monofilament or multifilament, a vinyl chloride resin sol composition having a thermochromic particulate material incorporated therein, the thermochromic particulate material being prepared by enclosing with (1) a high polymer compound in the form of a thermosetting resin, an electron-donating chromogenic substance, an electron-accepting substance for the chromogenic substance and a solvent having a boiling point of at least 150° C. and selected from the group consisting of alcohols, amides, esters and azomethines, and further covering the resulting product with (2) a different high polymer compound in the form of a hydrophilic high polymer compound, whereby to provide the particulate material as a double film of an inner thermosetting resin layer and an outer hydrophilic high polymer compound layer encapsulating said electron-donating chromogenic substance, said electron-accepting substance and said solvent, therewithin, and heating the core onto which said sol composition has been applied to gel the sol composition and cover the core with the gelled composition.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 173 words
A process for producing a linear material characterized by applying onto a core in the form of a monofilament or multifilament, a vinyl chloride resin sol composition having a thermochromic particulate material incorporated therein, the thermochromic particulate material being prepared by enclosing with (1) a high polymer compound in the form of a thermosetting resin, an electron-donating chromogenic substance, an electron-accepting substance for the chromogenic substance and a solvent having a boiling point of at least 150° C. and selected from the group consisting of alcohols, amides, esters and azomethines, and further covering the resulting product with (2) a different high polymer compound in the form of a hydrophilic high polymer compound, whereby to provide the particulate material as a double film of an inner thermosetting resin layer and an outer hydrophilic high polymer compound layer encapsulating said electron-donating chromogenic substance, said electron-accepting substance and said solvent, therewithin, and heating the core onto which said sol composition has been applied to gel the sol composition and cover the core with the gelled composition.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 100 words
A process as defined in claim 1 wherein the ratio of the core to the vinyl chloride resin sol composition is 70 to 20 parts by weight of the core to 30 to 80 parts by weight of the sol composition, and the vinyl chloride resin sol composition comprises the thermochromic particulate material, a plasticizer, a stabilizer, an auxiliary stabilizer and a gelling agent in a combined amount of 50 to 130 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of a vinyl chloride resin, the combined amount including 0.5 to 40 parts by weight of the thermochromic particulate material.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 13 words
A process as defined in claim 1 wherein the core is a metal.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 14 words
A process as defined in claim 1 wherein the core is an organic fiber.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 14 words
A process as defined in claim 1 wherein the core is an inorganic fiber.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 44 words
Process of claim 1 wherein said sol composition is applied by dipping the core into the sol composition, and withdrawing the core from the sol composition, and thereafter heating the core to gel the sol composition and cover the core with the gelled composition.
