THREAD AND FABRIC FOR INSECT SCREENS

摘要

The invention relates to a thread (4, 5) for producing fabrics (2) for insect screens (1), comprising a core which has a coating (11) that comprises a heat-activatable adhesive in order to bond to itself or to other threads of the fabric (2), said core having a higher melting point than the adhesive; to a fabric (2) for insect screens (1) with a mesh web structure (7), comprising warp threads (4) and weft threads (5) which are connected to one another by means of adhesive at node points (6); to an insect screen (1) comprising a frame (3) and a fabric (2) which is stretched by means of the frame (3); and to a method for producing fabrics (2) for insect screens (1), having the steps of a) providing threads (4, 5) as warp threads (4) and weft threads (5), b) weaving a fabric (2) using the warp threads (4) and weft threads (5), and c) heating the fabric (2) to a temperature which is higher than the melting point of the adhesive and lower than the melting point of the core in order to produce bonds between the warp threads (4) and the weft threads (5) at the thread node points (6). The aim of the invention is to provide such a thread which can be processed into an transparent fabric (2) for insect screens (1) in a particularly efficient manner. This is achieved in that the coating (11) comprises hydrophobic repellents.
