โฆ Synopsis
Fiber spinning of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) was studied at take-up speeds ranging from 2000 m/min to 7000 m/min under various spinning conditions. Effects of changes in process variables on the molecular orientation, crystallinity, and properties of as-spun PET fibers are reported. Conventional cross-flow quench in high-speed spinning yields fibers with undesirable crimp and asymmetric structure with respect to the fiber axis. Radialflow quench eliminates these problems. Changes in other spinning conditions, such as extrusion temperature, throughput or take-up denier, and molecular weight, may also affect the development of PET fiber structure in the high-speed threadline.

The high-speed melt spinning of sheath/core type bicomponent fibers was performed and the change of fiber structure with increasing take-up velocity was investigated in comparison with the results of our previous study. Two kinds of polyethylene, high density and linear low density (HDPE, LLDPE) wit
High-density polyethylene (HDPE) fibers, obtained from a melt-flow rate (g/10 min) of 11 and 28, was produced by a high-speed melt-spinning method in the range of take-up velocity from 1 to 8 km/min and from 1 to 6 km/min, respectively. The change of fiber structure and physical properties with incr
Linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) fibers, obtained from the meltflow rate (g/10 min) of 45 and 50, which were polymerized by a metallocene catalyst and a Ziegler-Natta catalyst, respectively, were produced by a high-speed melt-spinning method in the range of take-up velocity from 1 to 6 km/min
