Definitions

  • Figure 1 shows schematically a cross section of an exemplified layer composition 10 of a sports glove (not shown).
  • the exemplified sports glove comprises in summary six layers.
  • the layer composition 10 may comprise more or less than six layers.
  • a backing layer 15 of woven fabric fits tightly to the hand of the wearer. This layer comprises hard wearing material, which can be roughened at both surfaces completely or at selected positions. A rough surface of the backing layer 15 towards the hand avoids a relative movement of the glove and the hand.
  • a roughened surface of the backing layer 15 towards the hand promotes the absorption of sweat by the material of the backing layer 15.
  • a roughened and hence enlarged surface of the opposite side of the backing layer 15 facilitates connection with the material of the intermediate backing layer 20.
  • a third backing layer 25 comprising again a hard wearing fabric can be arranged at the upper surface of the material of the second backing layer 20.
  • the connection between the two layers 20 and 25 is carried out as described above in relation to the connection between the first backing layer 15 and the material of the second backing layer 20.
  • a tie-coat 40 completes the layer composition 10 of the sports glove.
  • the tie-coat 40 which is normally thinner than the layers 30 and 35 of the layer system 50, has preferably a pore size which is again smaller than that of the layer 35 to further enhance the abrasion resistance.
  • the two layers 30 and 35 can be completely dried, or the first layer 30 can be completely dried and the second layer 35 can have a wet gel-like condition. It is also possible that both layers 30 and 35 have a wet gel-like condition after a twofold application of the first drying step described above after the application of each of the layers 30 or 35, respectively.
  • the drying steps of the layer system 50 are carried out in common to induce an optimum cross linking of the layers amongst each other during the drying and cross linking processes.
  • Figure 2a shows a PUR layer system 50 composed of three layers 30, 35 and 40 as was discussed above in the context of Figure 1 .
  • the layer system 50 of Figure 2a is applied to the backing layer system comprising three layers 15, 20 and 25.
  • the material of the backing layer 20 comprises foamed PU and has on each of its upper and lower sides a thin backing layer 15 or 25, respectively of hard-wearing woven fabric.
  • the thickness of the overall layer system 50 is approximately 3 mm, wherein the tie-coat 40 has a thickness of 0.4 mm.
  • Each of the two layers 30 and 35 has substantially the same thickness of 1.3 mm.
  • the terms “substantially” and “approximately” reflect manufacturing tolerances and/or measurement errors which may occur at different production steps.
  • Figure 2b represents the outer surface 45 of the layer system 50 of Figure 2a .
  • the outer surface 45 comprises a leather grain structure.
  • Figure 3a shows a PUR layer system 50 with a single PUR layer 30 which is applied to the backing layer system comprising three layers 15, 20 and 25 which has been explained in the context of Figure 2a .
  • the thickness of the PUR layer is approximately 2 mm.
  • the outer surface 45 of the single PUR layer 30 is flat in contrast to the textured tie-coat 40 of Figure 2b .
  • the grip of the sports glove can be adjusted by the kind of texture on the outer surface 45.
  • the PUR system of the second layer 35 which is foamed to a density of 0.5 g/cm 3 differs from the PUR system of the first layer 30 simply by using two raw materials for the PUR dispersion (e.g. Impranil® of the Bayer AG and Impraperm® of Bayer AG with a ratio of 3:2).
  • two raw materials for the PUR dispersion e.g. Impranil® of the Bayer AG and Impraperm® of Bayer AG with a ratio of 3:2).
  • the three PUR systems are separately mechanically foamed by mixing air into them.
  • the pore size of the different layers as well as their density can be adjusted.
  • the tie-coat 40 can alternatively be chemically foamed, whereby the pores at the outer surface 45 of the tie-coat 40 are substantially closed.
  • the layer 30 is arranged to the backing layer 25 with a coating knife.
  • the wet gap determines the mass add-on of the applied PUR foam material. Consequently, the PUR foam material add-on is dried, i.e. the water content contained in the PUR foam is vaporized. In doing so, as already explained above, it is possible to reduce the water content after a first drying step at a temperature of about 75° C and in a second drying step at a temperature of about 95° C.
  • a third drying step at about 150° C the polyurethane-polyurea foam material of the layer 30 is cross linked in a chemical reaction to a solid layer 30.
  • the PUR foam of the second layer 35 is applied on the finished layer 30. This layer is then dried according to the scheme described above.
  • the drying process is interrupted after the first drying step and the second layer 35 is applied with a coating knife on the wet gel-like layer 30.
  • Table 1 Comparison of abrasion tests PUR layer system 50 Latex foam material Thickness of layer system 2.6 mm 2.6 mm Number of layers 3 1 Density 0.28 g/cm 3 0.24 g/cm 3 Surface structure smooth smooth Martindale-Abrasion tests Textile - SM 25 800 cycles: 200 cycles: little abrasion high abrasion Sandpaper - P 400 800 cycles: 200 cycles: Little abrasion High abrasion
