β¦ Synopsis
The effect of solvent treatment on the dyeability and mechanical properties of drawn poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) filaments has been studied. It is observed that strongly interacting solvents such as N, N-dimethyl formamide (DMF) improved the dyeability of PET which has been treated with these solvents at 74Β°C for 15 min before dyeing with disperse dyes at 100Β°C. Pretreatment i n N, N-dimethyl formamide and acetonitrile also resulted in a lowering of tensile strength and initial modulus, whereas subsequent dyeing caused further reduction in extensibility but initial modulus results are less consistent.

High-speed spinning of high molecular weight poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) having an intrinsic viscosity of 0.98 dL/g was performed at the take-up velocity range of 2.5-5.5 km/min. The structure of the as-spun filaments was analyzed by density, birefringence, WAXS, DSC, boiling water shrinkage,
## Abstract The effect of various organic compounds on the birefringence equilibrium shrinkage and swelling of poly(ethylene terephthalate) filaments was studied. Evidence is presented that suggests the carrier action of the compounds is dominated by dispersion forces and that interaction between d
