MUMBAI, India, July 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202617075241 A) filed by Owens Corning Intellectual Capital, LLC on June 17, 2026, for Microfiber Filled Non-Woven Mat.
Inventors include Gawryla, Matthew Daniel; Salata, Ryan Robert; Ugorek, Michael Stephen; Jones, Sarah Beth Warren; Smith, William Edwin; Pruzinsky, Stephanie Number; and Verhoff, Jonathan Michael.
The application for the patent was published on July 10, 2026, under issue no. 28/2026.
Abstract: A method of forming rotary fibers (e.g., glass fibers) that have a more uniform or constrained fiber diameter and/or length distribution is disclosed. The rotary fibers, which have the improved property distribution(s) across a volume of the fibers, promote the formation of improved non-woven fibrous mats and products formed from the mats. Additionally, use of the rotary-formed microfibers in a blend with larger fibers leads to the intended creation of fiber bundles, which can also be used to fashion improved non-woven fibrous mats and products formed from the mats. Because the structure of the non-woven mats may be readily tuned to have desired properties (e.g., thickness, air permeability), they are suitable for many applications, such as substrates in roofing materials, composite reinforcements, and facers for gypsum/polyiso boards.
