Abstract
A clothing, in particular a forming belt for a machine for producing or processing a fibrous web, includes a paper side, a backing side, a basic structure and at least one further structure. The at least one further structure is formed of or includes a layer of polymer foam providing the paper side of the clothing. A method for producing the clothing is also provided.
Claims17
A clothing or a forming belt for a machine for producing or processing a fibrous web, the clothing comprising:
- a paper side;
- a backing side;
- a basic structure;
- and
- at least one further structure formed of or including a layer of polymer foam providing said paper side, said layer of polymer foam configured to be compressed in a thickness direction by more than 10% in a compressive stressing of the clothing of 50 kPa as compared to an initial thickness under a compressive stressing of 6 kPa.
A clothing or a forming belt for a machine for producing or processing a fibrous web, the clothing comprising:
- a paper side;
- a backing side;
- a basic structure;
- and
- at least one further structure formed of or including a layer of polymer foam providing said paper side, said layer of polymer foam configured to be compressed in a thickness direction by more than 15% in a compressive stressing of the clothing of 50 kPa as compared to an initial thickness under a compressive stressing of 6 kPa.
