Steel wire for reinforcing elastomer articles with improved adhesion promoting layer
Bombeke Martin,Dambre Paul +1 more
TLDR
In this paper, high strength steel wire for use e.g. in tire reinforcement is treated so as to have a cementite free surface region, which can be achieved by electroplating or other coating methods, or be decarburizing the surface.Abstract:
High strength steel wire for use e.g. in tire reinforcement is treated so as to have a cementite free surface region. This can be achieved by electroplating or other coating methods, or be decarburizing the surface. The wire has increased resistance to hydrogen embrittlement and corrosion fatigue. The wire with its ferrous surface region is then covered with a rubber adherent outer layer of e.g. brass.read more

Encapsulated ceramic composite armor
Dan T. Moore,Ajit Y. Sane,Jeff Lennartz,Bruce O. Budinger,James L. Eucker,Charles M. Milliren +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a composite armor including a disrupting layer and a backing layer provides protection against blast and ballistic threats, where the disrupting layer includes ceramic particles or tiles that disrupt the incoming projectile, while the backing layer prevents penetration past the armor by the disrupted projectile.
Patent
A structured sawing wire
TL;DR: A steel sawing wire with a helicoidal shape is described in this article, wherein straight segments alternate with outwardly oriented bends, and the shape of the wire is configured so as to have a good cooperation with the abrasive particles used with the wire.
Patent
Affixable armor tiles
TL;DR: In this article, the affixable armor includes polygonal ceramic tiles that can be attached directly to a surface, or first attached to a carrier sheet which is then attached to the surface.

Process for patenting and brass plating steel wire
TL;DR: In this article, a process for simultaneously patenting and brass plating a steel wire is described, which comprises: (a) continuously passing the steel wire through a molten mixture of copper and zinc to apply a brass coating, wherein the molten mixture is maintained at a temperature which is within the range of about 930°C to about 1100°C, and (b) continuously wiping excess brass from the austenitized steel wire as it exits the molten mixtures to attain a brass coated steel wire having a brass coat weight which is between 2 to 8 grams of brass per kil

Method of making and using ternary alloy coated steel wire
TL;DR: In this paper, a ternary brass alloy was used for reinforcement of rubber articles in which the steel wire was provided with an adhesive coating comprising a brass alloy containing about 55 percent to about 75 percent by weight copper, about 15 to about 45 percent of zinc, and about 0.1 to about 10 percent of iron.
Patent
Ion beam deposition or etching re rubber-metal adhesion
TL;DR: In this article, an ion beam sputter deposition is applied to metal substrates such as brass, copper, and the like to improve rubber-to-metal adhesion, which is particularly useful in tire cord construction, metal reinforced belts and hoses.
Patent
Method for producing wire with a small cross-sectional area
TL;DR: In this paper, a method for producing wire with a small cross-sectional area and good mechanical properties is described. But the method is characterized by an extended life of the cutting rolls.

Method of making a steel wire adapted for cold drawing
Hans Dipl Ing Paulitsch,Alfred Babilon,Gerhard Kiefer,Kurt Koerfer,Vlad Constantin M,Ullrich Koch +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a steel wire after coming from the mill is brought to a temperature between 850° and 910° C. The wire is coiled while the temperature remains substantially constant so that the retained austenite in the core of the wire undergoes an isothermal transformation to fine pearlite.
Patent
Apparatus and method for treating wire
TL;DR: In this paper, a plenum box has a series of gas-discharge slots formed in the bottom thereof, through which slots the gas is discharged onto the wire coils, and the distance between the discharge slots of each box and wire coils may be selectively adjusted by raising or lowering individual ones of the plenum boxes relative to the level of wire coils on the conveyor device.
