✦ Synopsis


Pyrolysis-gas chromatography was used as an analytical method to evaluate the extent of chemical changes that occur in aged yarns and to demonstrate any correlation between measured physical properties and pyrolysis products. Nylon 6,6 yarn samples (2.5-3.0 mg) that were control-degraded as a function of humidity, temperature, and time were pyrolyzed a t 500°C and chromatographed on a Graphpac AT-1000 column. The peak heights of pyrolysis products unique to the degraded material were correlated with measured tensile strength loss (-5 to -75%) of the yarns. Linear relationships were found for several of the products, one of which was identified as caprolactam. Significant changes in the pyrograms were observed in nylon with tensile strength losses of 5% or less.

The absorbance of chromophores developed upon thermal aging of a typical nylon 6,6 yarn is investigated. The absorbance is found to correlate with the degree of tensile strength loss suffered by the yarn during the aging process. The measurement is shown to be quite sensitive, as the absorbance from
