Filed: 1999-06-02
Abstract: Patente de Invenção: <B>"PROCESSO PARA UNIR, MARCAR E MODIFICAR ESTRUTURALMENTE MONOFILAMENTOS"<D>. A invenção propõe processos para o uso de raios laser no caso de monofilamentos de matéria sintética. Por exemplo, processos para unir monofilamentos de matéria sintética extrudados e monofilamentos com coeficientes de absorção diferentes para raios laser (LS), que são postos em contato, pelo menos em zonas, ao longo de sua superfície circunferencial e pela introdução de raios laser, são fundidos entre si na área de contato. Para a marcação óptica de monofilamentos extrudados ou monofilamentos individuais de uma composição de monofilamentos, pelo menos o monofilamento a ser marcado, sob adição de aditivos que reagem com uma mudança de cor sob ação do laser, é extrudado e tratado com raios laser nas áreas correspondentes à marcação desejada. Para modificar estruturalmente monofilamentos ou monofilamentos individuais de uma composição de monofilamentos, o monofilamento a ser modificado estruturalmente é extrudado com aditivos absorvedores de LS e subseq³entemente, tratado com raios laser.
