Process for preparing poly (trimethylene terephthalate) yarns

摘要

Poly(trimethylene terephthalate) is formed into a bulk continuous filament yarn by a process comprising melt-spinning poly(trimethylene terephthalate) to produce a plurality of spun filaments; forming the spun filaments into a yarn; and drawing the yarn in a two-stage drawing process wherein the second stage draw is at a significantly higher draw ratio than the first draw ratio.
