Product Information

How many cups of stuffing per person? For a side dish like stuffing, you can estimate around 1/2 to 3/4 cup per person. How much stuffing do I need for 20 people? For a side dish like stuffing, you may need around 10 to 15 cups to serve 20 people, depending on the serving size. These Examples correspond to Examples 1-5, respectively, except that the tow of 4.7 dtex was mechanically crimped (to provide a mild mechanical crimp in addition to the spiral crimp) by passing through a stuffer box, under mild gate and roll pressures. The resulting fiberfill has Ω-crimp. The fiberballs of Examples 6-10 have 10-20% higher bulk than the fiberballs of Examples 1-5, whereas the molded products are not very different, but have lower resilience and lower bulk under high pressure (60N). TABLE 1 Process acording to claim 9 or 10, wherein the tufts are formed by feeding loose fibers into the vessel, and by rotating the shaft and blades at a speed such that the fiberfill is separated into the small tufts.

Thermally-bonded (polyester) fiberfill batts (or battings) are well known and have gained large scale commercial use, particularly in Europe. Binder fibers can be blended intimately into the fiberfill to achieve true "through-bonding" of fiberfill batts, and thus achieve better durability versus resin-bonding, which was the conventional method, and can also provide reduced flammability versus resin-bonding. Such binder fiber blends are used on a large scale in furnishings, mattresses and similar end-uses where strong support is desired. However, they are seldom used as the only filling material in these end-uses, particularly in furnishing seat cushions, where the common practice is to use the fiberfill batts as a "rapping" for a foam core. It is believed that the main reason is probably that, to obtain the desired resilience and performance in 100% fiberfill cushions, it would be necessary to provide such relatively high density as has hitherto been considered too costly and difficult with the present techniques, and as might not provide desirable performance aesthetically. In a conventional fiberfill batt, the fibers are arranged in parallel layers which are bonded together. In such a layered structure, any pressure applied during use as a cushion is essentially perpendicular to the direction of the fibers and I believe that may be at least partly why such a high density must be reached to achieve the desired resilience and durability using conventional layering and bonding techniques. How do you stuff a pillow with polyfill? To stuff a pillow with polyfill, open the pillow cover, fluff the polyfill to ensure it’s evenly distributed, then stuff it into the cover until it reaches your desired level of firmness. Fiberballs according to claim 2, wherein the binder material comprises about 5 to about 50% of the weight of the bicomponent fiber. How much stuffing do I need for 11 people? For 11 people, you may need around 5 to 8 cups of stuffing, depending on the serving size. What is a natural alternative to polyfill? Wool batting or cotton batting can be natural alternatives to polyfill for filling pillows and cushions.

O'Connor MC (27 October 2014). "Inside the lonely fight against the biggest environmental problem you've never heard of". The Guardian. What is the most popular pillow filling? Polyester fiberfill is one of the most popular pillow fillings due to its affordability and ease of maintenance.

Numerous other reactions have been reported for the synthesis of selected polyesters, but are limited to laboratory-scale syntheses using specific conditions, for example using dicarboxylic acid salts and dialkyl halides or reactions between bisketenes and diols. [4] In acylation, the acid begins as an acyl chloride, and thus the polycondensation proceeds with emission of hydrochloric acid (HCl) instead of water.

All parts and percentages herein are by weight, and with respect to the total weight of fiber, unless otherwise stated.Process for making a bonded product, wherein an assembly of fiberballs according to claim 1 are heat-bonded in an airstream and cooled. The spiral-crimp must be developed in the fiberfill so that making the fiberballs becomes possible. Thus a tow of asymmetrically-jet-quenched polyester filaments is prepared by melt spinning and gathering the spun filaments together. The tow is then drawn, optionally coated with a surface modifier, optionally relaxed before cutting conventionally to form staple fibers, and preferably relaxed after cutting to enhance the asymmetric character of the fibers. This character is required so the fibers will curl and form the desired fiberballs with minimal hairiness. Conventional mechanical crimping, such as by a stuffer-box technique, is not generally desired because inappropriate heat-treatment can destroy the desired spiral-crimp, and so such mechanically-crimp fiberfill would not form fiberballs, as desired. Such mechanical crimping is not an alternative to spiral-crimp, because mechanical crimping gives a saw-tooth crimp which will not form the desired fiberballs. However, we have found that fiberballs can be obtained if some suitable degree of mechanical crimp with appropriate heat treatment is provided to the precursor filamentary tow, in which case the eventual fiberfill will have a configuration that is a result of combining this mechanical crimp and spiral crimp. This is the technique used in Examples 6-10 herein. We refer to this crimp as Ω-crimp (omega-crimp) because the configuration of the fibers resembles the shape of this Greek letter Ω, being a combination of a saw-tooth from the mechanical crimping superimposed on the curl of the spiral crimp obtained because of the "memory" referred to above. This Ω-crimp may be obtained in other ways. Varma IK, Albertsson AC, Rajkhowa R, Srivastava RK (October 2005). "Enzyme catalyzed synthesis of polyesters".

To make it more detailed and accurate, let’s assume we are working with square or rectangular pillows and two common filling materials: polyester fiberfill and down feathers. We will calculate the filling weight based on the dimensions of the pillow and the desired firmness. Unsaturated polyesters are thermosetting polymers. They are generally copolymers prepared by polymerizing one or more diols with saturated and unsaturated dicarboxylic acids ( maleic acid, fumaric acid, etc.) or their anhydrides. The double bond of unsaturated polyesters reacts with a vinyl monomer, usually styrene, resulting in a 3-D cross-linked structure. This structure acts as a thermoset. The exothermic cross-linking reaction is initiated through a catalyst, usually an organic peroxide such as methyl ethyl ketone peroxide or benzoyl peroxide.How do you make pillow stuffing fluffy again? To make pillow stuffing fluffy again, place it in a dryer with a couple of tennis balls or clean sneakers. Tumble on low heat to help redistribute and fluff the filling.
