Abstract:

Disclosed are processes for applying anti-soil compositions onto BCF yarns during cable or air twisting processes prior to weaving, knitting or tufting into finished carpet. The process foregoes the need for downstream environmentally unfavorable dyeing and low pH chemical treatment processes on the finished carpet. The anti-soil composition can be comprised of a high specific surface energy chemical or other material, for example a fluorochemical. Further, the anti-soil composition can further comprise an anti-stain component. Also disclosed are systems, BCF yarns, and carpets made from the BCF yarn treated by the disclosed process.

Abstract:

A sloped wall structure is formed from a plurality of rafters arranged in spaced, parallel inclined attitude extending from a lower support surface upwardly to a higher support surface. Anchor clips are positioned at the lower end of each rafter and pivotally connect each rafter to the lower support surface. Similar anchor clips are optionally connected to the upper ends of each rafter and are also pivotally connected to the upper support surface. A baffle plate extends laterally across the wall structure and covers the lower ends of each rafter structure and supports the glass panes or other infill material at the lower edge of the wall structure.
